\n\tKid Albums ranks the week\u2019s most popular kid albums in the United States, by equivalent album units, according to Luminate. The latest chart reflects the tracking week ending April 23.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe chart surge is owed to Bluey: Up Here<\/em>\u2019s release on zoetrope vinyl picture disc<\/a> via independent record stores for Record Store Day on April 18. The set was initially released March 27 via streaming services, and for purchase on download, CD and vinyl.<\/p>\n

\n\tBluey: Up Here<\/em> is the fourth Bluey album to reach the Kid Albums chart, following a trio of chart-toppers since 2021: Bluey: Rug Island<\/em>, Bluey: Dance Mode!<\/em> and Bluey: The Album<\/em>, each spending a week at No. 1.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThis was our most ambitious album to date,\u201d Bush says of Bluey: Up Here<\/em> in a press statement, \u201cso we wanted something extra special \u2014 something we\u2019ve wanted to make for a long time. Orchestral music can be emotionally powerful and to be introducing kids and families to this music is an opportunity I treasure. Hearing the music from episodes like \u2018Sleepytime\u2019 and \u2018The Sign\u2019 in all its orchestra splendour meant tissues needed to be on hand throughout the mixing process.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cFittingly, the theme of this album is \u2018growing up\u2019. Much of this music, like the episodes they derive from, explore what it means when kids start to discover their independence and venture out on their own. Whether that\u2019s learning to sleep in their own bed or taking a spaceship to Mars. I hope you enjoy Up Here<\/em>, as the opportunity I had to make this album is thanks to YOU! Your wonderful support of the music in Bluey has allowed us to take it to new heights.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tBluey<\/em>, which follows Bluey (a lovable and tireless blue heeler dog who lives with her mom, dad and little sister Bingo), is produced by Ludo Studio for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation and BBC Studios Kids & Family. In the United States, Bluey<\/em> airs and streams across Disney Channel, Disney Jr. and Disney+ through a global broadcasting deal between BBC Studios & Family and Disney Branded Television.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe success of Bluey<\/em> has continued to expand into new arenas thanks to its Disney partnership, with the TV special Bluey\u2019s Big Play \u2013 The Stage Show<\/em> (premiered March 16 on Disney+), a live stage show Bluey\u2019s Best Day Ever!<\/em> at Disneyland Park<\/a> in Anaheim, California (premiered March 22), Disney Cruise Line experiences with Bluey and Bingo, and Bluey activities and encounters at Disney\u2019s Animal Kingdom at Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida.<\/p>\n

\n\tBluey: Up Here<\/em> isn\u2019t the only debut in the top five on the latest Kid Albums chart: The beloved Peanuts gang notches another chart entry with the No. 4 arrival of Vince Guaraldi\u2019s It\u2019s Arbor Day, Charlie Brown \/ Charlie Brown\u2019s All Stars<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe soundtrack project bows thanks to its double vinyl release for Record Store Day, with a baseball-shaped disc containing the Arbor Day<\/em> music, and a baseball glove-shaped disc containing the All Stars<\/em> tracks. The set commemorates the 50th and 60th anniversaries of the CBS-TV specials Charlie Brown\u2019s All Stars<\/em> (premiered June 8, 1966) and It\u2019s Arbor Day, Charlie Brown<\/em> (premiered March 17, 1976). The latter was the 15th and final Peanuts special jazz great Guaraldi composed and performed before his death on Feb. 6, 1976.<\/p>\n

\n\tA trio of familiar favorites round out the week\u2019s top five on the Kid Albums chart. The Moana<\/em> soundtrack is steady at No. 1, the Encanto (Highlights)<\/em> soundtrack is a non-mover at No. 3 and the Frozen II<\/em> soundtrack falls 3-5.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
