BBC Studios and Ludo Studio are gearing up for the holiday season with two new Bluey Book Reads that will have kids and parents feeling festive for the holidays.
In “Christmas Eve with Verandah Santa,” Bluey, Bingo, and Muffin play a game called Verandah Santa to practice not peeking at their presents on Christmas Eve. This story is read by Australian stand-up comedian and TV presenter Adam Hills. “Christmas Eve with Verandah Santa” is available now on the Bluey YouTube channel and at bluey.tv.
“My kids are honestly more impressed that I’m reading a Bluey book than anything I’ve ever done,” Hills said. “That includes going to the Coronation, meeting Lady Gaga, or the time I made pumpkin soup in an actual pumpkin.”
In “Christmas Swim,” the weather on Christmas day is perfect for a family swim with Bluey’s new toy, Bartlebee. “Christmas Swim” is narrated by Australian Olympic medal-winning swimmer Ian Thorpe. The story will go live on Sunday, Dec. 1, and be a part of the launch of the @officialblueytv digital advent calendar on Instagram.
Both of these Bluey stories are destined to be staples of the ongoing storytime lineup this holiday season.
