Looking for Bluey party games that will keep kids entertained from start to finish? You’re in luck! One of the best things about a Bluey-themed birthday party is that the show is packed with fun games that children already know and love.
From Keepy Uppy and Magic Xylophone to obstacle courses and scavenger hunts, there are plenty of Bluey-inspired activities that are easy to set up and guaranteed to get everyone involved.
Whether you’re planning a backyard birthday party, park celebration or indoor gathering, these Bluey party games will help create a party your child will remember.
1. Keepy Uppy
This is the ultimate Bluey party game and one that almost every Bluey fan will recognise immediately.
Simply give the children a balloon and challenge them to keep it in the air for as long as possible without letting it touch the ground.
You can play individually, in teams or as one giant group challenge.
2. Magic Xylophone Freeze Game
Just like in the Bluey episode, one child becomes Bluey and uses a toy xylophone.
When they tap the xylophone, everyone must freeze. When they tap it again, everyone can move.
Kids love being silly with this simple game.
3. Pass the Parcel
No Australian birthday party is complete without Pass the Parcel.
Use Bluey wrapping paper or Bluey stickers between layers to tie it into the theme.
