Just like Bluey and Bingo’s parents, grant your children’s wishes and bring their enthusiastic imaginations to life by collaborating with them on these easy DIY Bluey crafts.
Bluey has captured the hearts of millions of children and parents around the world ever since it became available on the streaming service Disney+, and merchandise of this adorable heeler family has become widely available for kids to enjoy.
However, instead of purchasing expensive toys, some parents prefer to make DIY Disney crafts for kids because crafts help children develop fine motor skills and it’s a great bonding activity for families.
5 Bluey DIY Drawings and Paintings
Stimulate your kids’ creativity by helping them color these drawings and models of Bluey. Basic drawing and coloring materials for these crafts include markers, paint, glue, and safety scissors.

2. Toilet Paper Roll Bluey Craft
Difficulty Level: Toddlers & Preschoolers
Around here, we enjoy repurposing toilet paper rolls into kids’ crafts because they’re a material that’s common and easy to work with. The Soccer Mom Blog introduces us to this craft that transforms a toilet paper roll into a Bluey figure.
Kids can help the adults make this craft with an empty toilet paper roll, acrylic paint (or tempera paint), a yellow pom-pom, and some blue pipe cleaners. Googly eyes are optional but highly recommended to really bring Bluey to life.
You’ll want a glue gun to increase the DIY Bluey toy’s durability, but just make sure a grown up handles this tool.
