About this episode
This episode discusses the challenges of screen time in parenting through the story of Bingo and her class pet Bob Bilby.
Welcome back to another exciting episode of Bluey and the Bible! In Episode 12, we are tackling the infamous grade school project: taking home the class pet. Bingo brings home a stuffed bilby named Bob, expecting a weekend full of fun family adventures to document for her class book. However, the Heelers run into a hilariously relatable snag— the entire family is glued to their screens . After snapping photos of Bob watching cartoons in the car and playing mindless tablet games, Bingo makes a tragic discovery: this is the most boring time Bob has ever had ! To save the weekend, Bandit ditches the digital devices, busts out an old Polaroid camera from when he "used to be cool," and leads the family on an epic, screen-free bike ride to the park. In this episode, we unpack the very real struggle of screen time in modern parenting and how easily it can take over our lives. We dive into how our screen habits can actually reveal what our hearts truly treasure, drawing on timeless wisdom from verses like Luke 12:34 and Psalm 90:12. Join us for some honest confessions, practical tips, and plenty of laughs as we discuss how to put down the phones and intentionally redeem the time…
