#1.3 Keepy Uppy

Bluey Recap: Keepy Uppy (#1.3)

#bestbits: Lucky’s dad pulling a hammy

#lifelesson: don’t let the balloon touch the ground!!!

.

The episode starts with picturesque hot air balloons floating above the Heeler’s house.

Bluey wakes up, blows up her last balloon and pretends it’s a pet bird who squeaks and then zips around the room as she lets it “go free”. Mum suggests they play keepy uppy instead (the ultimate childhood ballon game) - keeping the balloon in the air without letting it touch the ground.

The girls start off enthusiastically, jumping all over the lounges (watch Mum discreetly put the dirt back into the pot plant) but then have the idea to only do small hits to make it easier... “nice strategy balloon girls”.

However they soon tire of that as it’s TOO easy, but Dad arrives to make the game harder by pretending to read Bingo the newspaper and hugging Bluey... “Embrace your father”.

Dad then turns on the fan and the leaf blower as the balloon gets pushed into 

playroom full of toys - Dad, in true ‘I told you so’ parenting, lets them know that it would be easier if the toys were tidied away. The building block tower saves the balloon before Dad turns the fan on and it blows outside.

Mum joins in so the balloon REALLY doesn’t touch the ground and burst. It goes over into the next door neighbours yard and Lucky and his Dad join in to return the balloon back to the Heeler’s yard, with Lucky’s dad doing his hammy during play.

The balloon eventually lands on the grass and pops making the kids sad. Dad apologises for making the game a bit TOO fun, but the kids (and Lucky) agree it was great fun.

Mum tells them they have one more balloon to play with - a big blue one... “for real life?”

Daddy balloon gets blown up to then be released “go free Birdy” with excellent sound effects.
