With more kids expected to stay home amid the coronavirus pandemic, the release of a batch of new Bluey episodes has come at a perfect time.

Ludo Studios founder Daley Pearson says 52 episodes will be released this year, starting with five from Tuesday.

The popular kids' show airs on ABC KIDS and on iview.

"We hope every episode is naturally re-watchable, until parents get sick of it," Pearson told Raf Epstein.
