Keepy Uppy
In this game from the episode of the same name, the Heeler family keeps a balloon in the air for as long as possible without letting it touch the ground. The beauty of this game is its simplicity and adaptability. You can play it inside or outside with any number of players. All you need is a balloon. This game encourages teamwork and coordination, while also teaching the importance of perseverance.
Shadowlands
“Shadowlands” is an exciting game from the episode “Shadowlands”. The Heelers have to navigate through their backyard without stepping on shadows. Using chalk, outline a path in your yard, driveway, or even inside on a rainy day, making sure to include plenty of shadowy “danger zones”. Players must avoid stepping on these shadows to stay in the game. It’s a fun way to build physical agility and spatial awareness, while also teaching children about the changing nature of shadows.
Magic Xylophone
In the episode “Magic Xylophone”, Bandit (Bluey and Bingo’s dad) becomes the unwitting participant in a game where a magic xylophone can freeze him in place or make him move in slow motion. To play this at home, any toy can be the “magic xylophone”. The game teaches kids about control and consequences, while providing plenty of laughs along the way.
Grannies
In “Grannies,” Bluey and her sister, Bingo, pretend to be old grannies, creating hilariously imaginative scenarios. All that’s required for this game is an open mind and a willingness to act silly. Encourage your children to imagine what life will be like when they’re older and get into character. This game encourages creativity, empathy, and an understanding of different perspectives.
Hospital
In the “Hospital” episode, Bluey and Bingo turn their living room into a make-believe hospital to treat their dad, who’s pretending to be a stick insect with a broken leg. To play this game, all you need are some pillows, blankets, and stuffed animals to serve as medical equipment and patients. The children take on the role of doctors, diagnosing and treating their pretend patients. This game encourages empathy, imagination, and an early interest in science and medicine.
Featherwand
In the “Featherwand” episode, Bluey and Bingo discover a magical feather wand that makes things incredibly heavy. Choose an item to be the ‘featherwand’ – it can be anything, a feather, a toy wand, or even a stick. Then take turns pretending to make things around the house incredibly heavy. This game encourages creativity and physical activity, as your children strain to lift their ‘heavy’ items.
The Adventure
“The Adventure” game from the episode of the same name sees the Heeler family embarking on an epic quest to save their plush toy from the “evil” neighbor’s cat. Create a map and guide your kids on a grand adventure around your house or backyard. Use various household items as props to create obstacles and challenges that the kids need to overcome to reach their goal. This game boosts problem-solving, collaboration, and imaginative play.
Bike
“Bike” is a game from an episode where Bluey and Bingo turn their dad into a human bicycle, complete with gear shifts and sound effects. To play this game, one person acts as the “bike” (usually an adult), while the kids get to steer, pedal, and change gears. This game fosters role-play, creativity, and physical activity. Be ready for plenty of giggles!
Camping
“Camping” is a wonderful game inspired by the episode of the same name, where the Heeler family goes camping in the backyard. Set up a tent, roll out sleeping bags, and have a pretend campfire with your kids. Use this opportunity to tell stories, “roast marshmallows”, and look at the stars. This game is a fun way to introduce kids to nature and outdoor activities, even in an urban setting.
The Claw
In “The Claw” episode, Dad transforms into a claw machine, and Bluey and Bingo have to try to win toys from him. For this game, designate one person as ‘the claw’ who sits in a box or behind a couch with a selection of toys. The kids then use a ‘grabbing’ motion to try to win a toy. The Claw decides if they’ve won a prize. This game encourages fine motor skills and learning about winning and losing.
Queens
“Queens” is an episode in which Bluey and Bingo act as queens of the kingdom, and their subjects have to bring them all sorts of items. In this imaginative game, the kids become queens and ask the parents to find specific items around the house. The game helps children to describe things clearly and helps parents to understand their child’s perspective.
Fruitbat
Inspired by the “Fruitbat” episode, this game involves pretending to be bats and ‘flying’ around the house or garden at night. Using torches can add extra fun to this game. It is a great game for understanding animals, fostering physical activity, and for discussing the concept of day and night.
Squash
In the episode “Squash,” the Heeler family plays a fun-filled game of squash. To play at home, clear a space indoors or find an outdoor wall. Using a soft ball, you can start a two-person game of squash. This game encourages physical activity, hand-eye coordination, and understanding of game rules.
Rug Island
In “Rug Island,” the living room rug turns into a desert island surrounded by lava. The game involves the children hopping from one safe spot (or ‘island’) to another, avoiding the ‘lava’. Household items like cushions or paper can serve as safe islands. This game fosters agility, balance, and imaginative play.
Horsey Ride
The “Horsey Ride” episode showcases a lively game where Bandit, the dad, gives horsey rides to Bluey and Bingo. In this easy-to-imitate game, an adult plays the role of the “horse,” carrying the kids on their back or shoulders. It’s not just about the ride though – make sure to add in some neighs and other horsey-like behaviors for a more authentic experience! This game enhances imaginative play and is a fun way to encourage physical activity.
Daddy Robot
“Daddy Robot” is an episode where Bandit becomes a malfunctioning robot that Bluey and Bingo need to repair. To play this at home, an adult or older child can play the robot, pretending to malfunction and require ‘fixing’. The children then have to figure out what’s ‘wrong’ and ‘fix’ the robot with make-believe tools. This game encourages problem-solving skills, teamwork, and fosters a basic understanding of how machines work.
Hotel
The “Hotel” episode features a game where Bluey and Bingo turn their house into a pretend hotel, with Bandit and Chilli (the parents) as the guests. Turn your home into a hotel and let your kids take on roles as hotel staff. They can create room keys, prepare meals, and ensure their guests (the parents) have everything they need. This game enhances creativity, responsibility, and teaches about customer service.
Pirates
In the “Pirates” episode, Bluey, Bingo, and their friends pretend to be pirates in search of treasure. Create a treasure map with your kids and hide a ‘treasure’ for them to find. Along the way, they can encounter obstacles or puzzles that they must solve. This game promotes problem-solving, teamwork, and of course, promises a wealth of imaginative play.
Taxi
The “Taxi” episode has the family playing a game where the kids and their mom take turns playing taxi drivers and passengers. Use chairs to create a ‘taxi’ and have fun traveling to imaginative destinations around the house. This game encourages role play, creativity, and provides a great opportunity to discuss different locations and cultures.
Hide and Seek
In the “Hide and Seek” episode, Bluey and Bingo play a classic game that never gets old. One person closes their eyes and counts while everyone else hides, then the seeker tries to find them all. What makes the Bluey version so funny is that Bingo takes ages to be found — she even falls asleep while hiding!
At home, you can play it the traditional way indoors or outdoors, or add your own twists to keep things exciting. For younger kids, give them hints like “You’re getting warmer!” or limit hiding spots to one room so it’s not overwhelming. Older kids love upping the challenge by hiding in trickier places or using timers to see who’s the fastest seeker.
This game is fantastic for teaching patience, observation skills, and problem-solving and it guarantees loads of giggles (and maybe a few surprised squeals) when someone is finally found.
Obstacle Course
In the “Obstacle Course” episode, Bandit sets up a fun challenge in the backyard using whatever he can find — boxes, buckets, toys, even the garden hose. To play at home, create your own course with cushions to jump over, chairs to crawl under, and a line of toys to weave through. Time each player to see who can finish fastest or work together to complete it as a team. This game is brilliant for burning energy, building coordination, and letting kids take the lead in designing their own course.
Duck Cake
“Duck Cake” isn’t just about baking — it’s about the joy (and chaos) of decorating! Inspired by the episode where Bandit tries to recreate a complicated duck-shaped cake, you can host your own cake-decorating session. Bake a simple cake (or buy a plain one) and give the kids icing, sprinkles, fruit, and candy to transform it into their version of a duck cake. This is perfect for creative play, fine motor skills, and lots of giggles over the wobbly results.
Charades
In the “Charades” episode, Bluey and her family play the classic guessing game where one person silently acts out a word or phrase while everyone else guesses. To play at home, write down simple prompts on bits of paper — things like animals, actions, or characters from the show. This is a great screen-free game for parties or rainy days and helps kids practice creativity, communication, and teamwork.
Pass the Parcel
Featured in the episode of the same name, “Pass the Parcel” is a classic party game with a Bluey twist. Wrap a small prize in several layers of paper, adding a little treat or sticker between each layer. Players sit in a circle and pass the parcel around while music plays. When the music stops, whoever is holding the parcel unwraps one layer. Keep going until the final prize is revealed. This is one of the ultimate Bluey party games for birthdays or playdates.
Musical Statues
In the “Musical Statues” episode, Bluey and her friends dance to music — but they must freeze like statues the moment the music stops. To play at home, just pick some fun songs and dance around until the music pauses. Anyone caught moving is out! This game is brilliant for parties, helping kids develop self-control and balance while having loads of fun.
Magic Asparagus
In “Magic Asparagus,” Bluey finds a toy asparagus that magically turns people into animals with a wave of the wand. You can use a toy wand, a stick, or even a wooden spoon as your asparagus. Take turns being the “wizard,” pointing the asparagus at others and shouting the animal they must become — then watch them act it out! This game is fantastic for sparking imagination and getting everyone moving in silly ways.
Fancy Restaurant
In “Fancy Restaurant,” Bluey and Bingo turn the living room into a fancy dining experience for Mum and Dad. At home, kids can set up a table with napkins, cups, and even a handwritten menu. Let them play as chefs and servers, taking orders and bringing out snacks or pretend meals. It’s a lovely way to encourage role-play, manners, and creativity — and maybe even sneak in some learning about food.
Trampoline
The “Trampoline” episode is all about bouncing fun. If you’ve got a trampoline in the garden, you’re already set! Otherwise, you can create a soft, safe space indoors for jumping games (like hopping on cushions or mats). Try games like “Simon Says” while bouncing or make up challenges like counting how many jumps kids can do without falling over. It’s great for exercise, balance, and endless laughter.
Road Trip
In “Road Trip,” the Heelers turn a long car journey into an adventure full of games, snacks, and silly songs. If you’re heading out on a drive, you can recreate their games with “I Spy,” counting certain-coloured cars, or making up stories about the places you pass. It’s perfect for keeping kids entertained on real journeys, reducing screen time, and building their observation skills.
Hairdressers
In the “Hairdressers” episode, Bingo plays hairdresser while Bandit is her very patient customer. To play at home, kids can set up a pretend salon with hairbrushes, clips, combs, and towels. Let them give you silly hairstyles or braid their dolls’ hair. This game encourages fine motor skills, creativity, and plenty of giggles as kids practice their “styling” techniques.

The best thing about these Bluey-inspired games is how simple and joyful they are. You don’t need special equipment or a perfect house, just a willingness to join in and be a little silly. The imaginative and educational games from “Bluey” are far more than just a way to pass time. They provide a wonderful foundation for children to learn about their world while developiong creativity, critical thinking, physical activity, and most importantly, family bonding.
Playing these games together isn’t only about keeping the kids entertained. It’s about building memories, helping them learn problem-solving and empathy, and letting them see that grown-ups can have fun too.
So next time your kids ask to watch “just one more episode,” say yes — but then grab a balloon for Keepy Uppy or draw a map for a living-room Pirate adventure. A little screen time can easily spark hours of screen-free play, and that’s the real magic of Bluey.
After all, play is the highest form of research, and there’s no better guide than our furry friend, Bluey. So, grab a balloon, avoid those shadows, find your magic xylophone, and let your inner granny shine!
