What Parents Need to Know

About Blue's Room

Parents need to know that this Blue's Clues spin-off lives up to the original's high standards. The series invites preschoolers to interact with the lovable puppy puppet Blue -- who can now talk -- as she and her brother, Sprinkles, play and learn with their friends. Young viewers will absorb important early literacy skills like letter recognition, counting, comprehension, and shape identification, all while dancing, singing, drawing, and pretending with Blue and her buddies. The show also emphasizes teamwork, responsibility, and effective communication.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about imaginative play. What do Blue and her friends pretend? Why is it fun to pretend? Kids: What do you like to pretend when you play? Do you dress up? Do your friends like to play with you? What do they pretend to be? Parents can also talk with their kids about each episode's themes. What job did Blue and her friends do? Why was it important? How did they work together to accomplish it? What tools did they use? Kids: When have you cooperated with your friends? Was it difficult? How did you work it out?

    Educational, Entertaining, Great Fun!

    My daughter just turned two and she absolutely loves Blues' Room. She is actively engaged in the shows, pointing, dancing, and saying "yeah" to answer Blue's questions. My husband and I enjoy watching it with her as well. We actually had Blue's Room as the theme for her birthday party. She loved it!
