Activity summary
The animated series Bluey serves as a valuable tool in fostering children's development of imagination, curiosity, and social and emotional learning. This activity uses intentional teaching strategies to focus on the capability of 'communicating'. Children will take part in a play-based activity that encourages them to use their imagination and communicate according to the manner of a member of the royal family or a butler. In this fun role-play activity, the children take charge and experience royal life, switching and sharing the roles of butler and royal family members so everyone has a chance to be both.
