A great deal of the show is directed at parents which accounts in no small part for its popularity. For instance, new parents who do not have much exposure to young children may find playing with their own kids to be frustrating, boring, etc. The parents in the show are excellent models for how to talk to, play, and have fun with young children
Yes, one of my surprising takeaways from this show is how many new different ways I learned to play with my children. It’s humbling to say this, but there are genuine interesting, quick, and free stuff that I learned watching Bluey. I sometimes finish an episode with my daughter and think “let me give this a try…”
