If you have preschoolers in your family, I’m sure they know all about “Bluey.” I don’t know any toddlers. For that reason, I looked up the show online. Generally, Bluey.tv describes this Australian animated television series like this: “Bluey follows the adventures of a lovable and inexhaustible six-year-old puppy, who along with her sister Bingo, parents and friends, is learning all about the world.” And now, they’re bringing “Bluey’s Big Play Stage Show” to Las Vegas!

In any case, get the kids together and plan on bringing them to The Smith Center, August 10th or 11th, in 2024. There will be two matinee shows on both dates. One at 11 a.m. and one at 2 p.m. I’m sure tickets are going to sell quickly, so prepare to visit TheSmithCenter.com to purchase tickets online. At this time, ticket prices range from $29 to $72 dollars. It’s important to note that tickets go on sale this Friday, December 15th, at 10 a.m.

In fact, the 50-minute stage show is appropriate for all ages, and there will be no intermission. An article by Stephanie Overton on 8NewsNow.com states that “Bluey’s Big Play” was very well received by audiences in Australia. Moreover, the “Bluey” television series is an Emmy Award-winning program. It currently airs on Disney Junior, Disney Channel, and Disney+.

Here's What You Need To Know About The Show

According to TheSmithCenter.com, any child 2+ must have a ticket, although children under two do not need a ticket. However, those under two without tickets must sit on a parent or guardian’s lap since there are limited seats available. There is also an incredible VIP package available if you’ve got the cash. You can get more details on that by clicking here.

If your preschoolers follow the tv show, you can let them know that they’ll be enjoying Bluey, Bingo, and all their other favorite characters in a live theater show which will feature “puppetry, live actors, and ‘iconic sets.’” That’s according to Overton’s article. Furthermore, TheSmithCenter.com states the stage play is “an original story by Bluey creator Joe Brumm, and new music by Bluey composer Joff Bush.”

Toys have been around for centuries sparking joy in family house holds across the world. Parents will go to the end of lengths to get their child popular Christmas toys just to see them smile.

Stacker created a list of the most sought out toys from the years you were born and if these toys don't spark instant nostalgia we don't know what will. The toy list was created with valuable information from national toy archives and data from The Strong National Museum of Play. Before we dive into which toys were popular from years past we dug up the origin history of the word toy.

The history origin of the word "toy" is very fascinating but still remains slightly unknown. According to the Britannica, the history of the toy dates back to early BCE. The word toy was first written back in 500 BCE from the Greeks. They created what we know today as the modern yo-yo which were made from wood and metal. The Britannica did state that it is believed that China may be the original creator of the yo-yo from a date before 500 BCE.

As to what is the oldest toy in the world? Many archeologists are still figuring that out. The Fleet Science Center at FleetScience.org says, the world's oldest toy is the spinning top.

We will wait for more history to become uncovered as the world may never know. But what we do know is that this list give great insight on the evolution of toys in America and how modern technology has advanced overtime. The prices and quality of popular Christmas toys have changed significantly. For the better? We will let you be the judge of that.

We chose iconic toys from each decade but to see all of the toys for those in-between years, check out Stacker's list here.
