My kids (ages 6 and 3) LOVE Bluey. We are American and (sadly) English-only speakers. The fact that the show is full of Australian accents has not impacted their ability to understand or enjoy the show in any way at all.
The exposure to places that are not-America is good for them!
- CalRobert 4y agoI didn't even realize it but when Bluey, Bingo, and dad go to watch Chunky Chimp (the kids' movie with a big storm) the characters' accents are American. "it's just a bunch of singing monkeys I wouldn't read too much in to it"
- thrdbndndn 4y ago>English-only speakers I mean most of native speakers won't have much trouble understanding Australian accents. It's the ESL people that would have a hard time without having enough exposure.
- soperj 4y agoIt's not really the accents that are hard to understand in Australia, it's the slang.
