This episode of Bluey is called Past the Parcel.
00:00:05
The park was buzzing with excitement under a brightly decorated shelter, a picnic table overflowing with treats, and nearby a piñata swayed gently in the breeze.
00:00:15
Around the table, the parents were deep in conversation, while the kids sat in a circle on the grass, ready to play Past the Parcel.
00:00:23
"Are you ready for Past the Parcel, kids?"
00:00:26
Old Sheila holding a phone and Bluetooth speaker.
00:00:29
"Yeah," the kids cheered, with bingo leading the charge.
00:00:33
"I love Past the Parcel."
00:00:36
As the piñata unexpectedly spilled its candy, Sheila handed the music duties to Lucky's dad, Pat.
00:00:43
"Pat, would you mind doing the music?"
00:00:45
Pat was ready to help.
00:00:47
"Yeah, too easy, Sheila.
00:00:49
Ready, kids?
00:00:50
I'll just close my eyes."
00:00:52
"No, Pat," Sheila interrupted, still wrestling with the piñata.
00:00:57
"You have to stop on each kid once," Pat blinked, confused.
00:01:01
"What?
00:01:02
Why?"
00:01:04
Bluey and bingo's mom chimed in.
00:01:06
"So everyone gets a prize."
00:01:08
"But how can everyone get a prize?
00:01:12
There's just one in the middle."
00:01:13
Pat exclaimed, "No, there's a prize in each layer."
00:01:18
Mom explained with a smile, Pat shook his head, baffled.
00:01:23
"What?"
00:01:24
Sheila rushed back to the group and with a resigned sigh, Pat pressed play.
00:01:29
The kids eagerly passed the parcel, each hoping for their turn.
00:01:33
"Stop," Pat announced, and bingo gleefully tore off a layer of wrapping paper, revealing a shiny bracelet.
00:01:40
"Ooh, it's a bracelet," Lila admired.
00:01:44
Pat shook his head again.
00:01:46
"Ah, this is just wrong."
00:01:49
Layered by layer, the kids unwrapped small prizes, from lollipops to trinkets to more bracelets.
00:01:55
But Pat was growing increasingly frustrated.
00:01:58
He fumbled with the touch screen, trying to stop the music for Missy's turn.
00:02:02
"Ah, these touch screens," he grumbled.
00:02:06
Missy finally got her turn, though not without Pat manually intervening.
00:02:10
"Here, give it here," he said, flustered, passing the parcel to Missy, who unwrapped her prize while pom-pom protested.
00:02:17
"But it stopped on me, Lucky's dad," as the game went on, Pat's frustration boiled over.
00:02:25
Later at home, Pat vented to his wife, Janelle, as they both prepared for Chuckie's birthday party, blowing up balloons and prepping the toys for past the parcel.
00:02:34
"I want to play it the proper way.
00:02:37
One big present in the middle.
00:02:39
Winter gets that," Janelle raised an eyebrow.
00:02:43
"And what about everyone else?
00:02:45
They'll have to suck it out," Pat declared.
00:02:48
"I'm putting my foot down.
00:02:49
Janelle, we're raising a nation of squibs."
00:02:53
Janelle wasn't convinced this would go well, but decided to let him handle it.
00:02:58
Fine, but you're handling it.
00:03:00
She warned, folding her arms.
00:03:03
At Chuckie's birthday, Pat's experiment began.
00:03:06
"We're going to mix this up a bit, kids.
00:03:08
You'll love it," he promised.
00:03:11
The kids eagerly passed the parcel, but confusion set in when Bingo unwrapped the first layer and found nothing.
00:03:19
"Where's the present?"
00:03:21
Bingo asked, puzzled.
00:03:23
"There's just one big present in the middle," Pat explained proudly.
00:03:27
The kids were stunned.
00:03:28
"What?"
00:03:29
"Even the parents were skeptical."
00:03:32
Bluey and Bingo's mom asked, "Yeah, what?"
00:03:37
As the game continued, more kids unwrapped empty layers.
00:03:41
"Mommy!" Buddy wailed, running to his mom.
00:03:45
Pat tried to hold his ground, but chaos erupted.
00:03:49
Pom-pom looked up, wide eyed.
00:03:51
"Lucky's dad.
00:03:53
Do I not win anything?"
00:03:55
Pat sighed, giving in, pulling out his wallet.
00:03:58
"Ah, here!
00:03:59
Here!
00:04:00
Five bucks!
00:04:01
Everyone wins five bucks!" he muttered, frantically handing out money.
00:04:04
But it was clear things were spiraling out of control, regardless of Pat trying to remedy the distrustful situation he caused.
00:04:12
Finally, Jasper opened the last layer of wrapping paper, unwrapping a huge octopus water toy, excitedly screaming, "Yeah!" Next,
00:04:22
it was time for Jasper's birthday party, where Pat's rules made an unexpected return since Jasper thought Lucky's dad's way of playing past the parcel was awesome.
00:04:34
When for past the parcel, Jasper's mom announced the parent's side in unison knowing what was coming.
00:04:41
The kids, however, were still hopeful.
00:04:43
The parcel made its rounds, and finally, Missy unwrapped the one big prize, a cool, arrow-copter-bopter.
00:04:51
The other kids looked on, some disappointed, and others excited for their friend.
00:04:56
Bingo ran over to her mom in tears.
00:05:00
At the next party, Wynton announced that past the parcel would be with Lucky's dad's rules.
00:05:05
All the kids cheered, "Hooray!" Lucky's dad turned around and shocked and said, "Did they say hooray?"
00:05:12
Bingo didn't win and take home a prize, but she began to understand the game's true lesson.
00:05:18
When Leela is happy, I'm happy.
00:05:21
She told Mom on the ride home, Mom smiled, touched by Bingo's growing maturity.
00:05:28
The birthday party, after birthday party, the kids faced the ups and downs of past rules.
00:05:33
Bingo watched as others won, sometimes feeling the sting of losing, but learning to enjoy the game nonetheless.
00:05:41
Each party, she got a little better at handling the disappointment, and instead, focusing on the hopeful excitement and happiness for others.
00:05:50
By the time Bluey's birthday rolled around, she turned to her sister with a special decision.
00:05:55
We'll let Bingo choose how we play past the parcel.
00:05:59
At Bluey's birthday, the kids gathered in a circle.
00:06:02
Which rules are we playing, Bluey?
00:06:04
Lucky's dad Pat asked, "I left it up to Bingo to choose."
00:06:08
Bluey replied with a grin, "Bingo took a deep breath.
00:06:12
You'll see."
00:06:14
With that, Pat hit play on a rock song, and the kids passed the parcel excited for whatever came next.
00:06:22
And by one, they unwrapped the layers, revealing, "Nothing, Lucky's dad's rules, hooray!" The kids cheered.
00:06:30
The anticipation grew, until finally, the parcel stopped on Bingo.
00:06:35
She unwrapped the last layer to find a beautiful bird-shaped kite.
00:06:39
Her eyes lit up as she raised it high, "Burdy kite!" The kids cheered and Bingo beamed with pride, finally understanding that the joy of the game wasn't just in winning,
00:06:53
but in the fun of playing together.
00:06:56
With the lessons learned and friendship strengthened, it wasn't about the prizes anymore.
00:07:01
For Bingo, every birthday party became a chance to share joy, celebrate others, and grow in ways she never expected.
