Once that's found, the key unlocks ""Blue's Room,"" a special playroom where she is transformed into a puppet.

Later, we visit the library, where Marlee the librarian helps Steve to find a book about elephants. We learn about reading, categories, classification, the alphabet and more.

Steve's brought out our old friend sock puppet and he encourages us to join in too by using our hand as a new puppet, "Handy." We tell stories together using both of our puppets. We also help out Tickety Tock and Slippery, who have puppets of their own and want to tell a story, but aren't sure how to express emotions using their voices. Later, we skiddoo into a poster of a castle and become puppeteers to help out a character named Storybook.

In this episode, we help the various characters to come up with words that rhyme with things they're saying. Rhymes are words that have the same ending sound as another word, such as "say" and "hay," or "head" and "bed." Lullabies usually rhyme and so we help Mr. Salt to create one to get Paprika and Cinnamon to sleep. We also skiddoo into a rhyming storybook. There we help out several characters whose stories aren't quite right because one of the things in them doesn't rhyme with the other two things.

We join Steve and Blue who are outside planting Nero, a new plant of theirs. In this episode, we learn all about plants, starting with some of the plants in the backyard of the Blue's Clues house.

Steve is all dressed-up in t-shirt and sport pants as we head out for Blue's Backyard Ballgame Bonanza. It's a fun-filled event containing all sorts of different ballgames.

Blue's friend Green Puppy is over visiting with Blue at the Blue's Clues house and we're all having fun with blocks - Steve and Blue constructing towers with our help and Green Puppy knocking over towers of her own. We learn about concepts such as balance, shapes and as we construct. A Blue Skidoo segment offers a look into architecture. We help an architect to select shapes to build various structures based on blueprints that he's created.

The finding of a secret lost door gives us the opportunity to talk about things that are inside other things. For example, we play the "Grocery Game" with Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper. This involves placing various food items on shelves based on what's inside them. We also get to skidoo into a pull-tab book, where we find many interesting things inside the tabs.

Periwinkle missed his friend from the city, Plum, for a long time, but now he's finally come over to visit. Plum is a small purple bird who knows how to speak both Spanish and English. Throughout the episode, we learn how to speak Spanish words and also help out our friends. We learn Spanish as we help Periwinkle and Plum to create a marioneta. We also skiddoo into a puppet book, where we find Pedro, who needs our help in finding things to wear, so we use both Spanish and logic to figure out the right things that he needs.

Steve and Blue are going on a bug-watching expedition and we're invited to come along. We help them to spot many neat bugs and once we've found them, we learn more about them and also theorize about why they do the things that they do. We also skidoo into a big bug book. There, we meet up with Antoinette, a worker ant on the first day at the job.

Now that Cinnamon has come to the Blue's Clues house, it's necessary to make some changes to keep him comfortable. That means that things such as loud games are out when Cinnamon is trying to sleep - but we learn that by just thinking a little, we can come up with changes that will let us still do the things that we want to do, but in a different way. Sometimes the changes aren't easy at first, but they help others and aren't really that much of a problem. In the spirit of change in helping out, we also try to find ways to help Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper take care of Cinnamon.

We've been waiting and the moment everyone's been looking forward to has finally come: Mrs. Pepper is ready to have her new baby. While she's at the hospital and we wait for Mr. Salt's phone call, we do things like look at baby albums to pass the time. Later, we visit the baby hospital with Blue, Steve and Paprika and meet the new baby. Finally, the baby comes home and we give it a special welcome home.

With Mr. Salt and Mrs. Peppers' new baby on the way, Blue and Steve have decided to create "Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper Day" to honor them for all of the things they do to help everyone. Throughout the day, we try to help them out, from helping them to clean the kitchen to learning about their favorite things. They're also presented with a number of gifts carefully crafted to show them the things the characters appreciate about them. All of this is a great help to them - not only to relax, but also to feel very appreciated for all their hard work.

Blue has a new place. Steve and the viewers gather what is new in her place. We also see Paprika's new place.

What's new? Blue and the Blue's Clues characters are trying out new things and so Blue and Steve decide to create ""Blue's News"" to document it. See Blue rollerskate, Pail try playing basketball, big news about Paprika, Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper and more. That's the news - now everyone knows.

Steve and the Blue's Clues characters are all pretending to be superheroes. Steve is Stripe Man, Blue is Super Blue and there's also Clock Girl and Super Soap. Together, with us the viewer (The Incredibly Helpful Friend) we're The Thinking Squad. Together, we use our superpowers to solve a number of problems. We help Paprika find her missing Teddy Bear and help Mr. Salt at telling time. In the Blue Skidoo segment, we help a friend named Frank to find out just what his superpower is and help out two other friends in the process.

When a mysterious box shows up in the backyard of the Blue's Clues house, Steve is disappointed to find that it's empty, but Blue shows him that by using imagination, the box can be anything one pretends it to be. We use this idea to have a lot of fun, pretending that the box is anything from a car to a rocketship. Shovel and Pail manage to get three different uses out of it. We even use it to make it to the top of a high tower in the Blue Skidoo segment.

In this episode, we use our imaginations to go on a big adventure. We're in Queen Blue's kindgom and are trying to rescue King Horace, who has been captured by Periwinkle, the Kitten Castle Keeper. We have to think creatively to overcome his magic obstacles. Then, finding our path blocked by a lock, we skidoo into a storybook and must solve a series of riddles to obtain a magic key.

In this episode, we use our imagination to see, feel and even taste things that we wouldn't be able to otherwise. We tell a story with Blue, Tickety and Slippery Soap using pictures and our imaginations. Unfortunately, Mr. Salt doesn't seem to understand the whole imagination thing and so he doesn't see what we're seeing. Together with Steve, Periwinkle and Blue we come up with a special song to help Mr. Salt find his imagination.

Magenta has been trouble seeing lately and so she goes to the eye doctor to get glasses. Steve and Blue help her out and we get to see how an eye test works. Later, we help her pick out her glasses and also help out when she's a bit shy about wearing them in public.

Magenta's owner, Miranda, comes over to the Blue's Clues house to return a book that she borrowed from Steve. She also has a video of Magenta that she wants to watch together with Steve and Blue later. Unfortunately, meeting new people can sometimes cause one to be shy. In this episode, we help some of our friends to feel less shy. We help Shovel to play with Pail's new friend, Sifter. Later, in the Blue Skiddoo segment, we help some Blue's classmates at her school with some things that they're shy about.

This episode is all about words - even Blue's Clues are all words. Blue has a big bag of words from which we pull out such fun words as ""wiggle"" and ""enormous."" We help Mr. Salt and Pepper to prepare a sald for their friends Mr. Oil, Mrs. Vinegar and Vinaigrette by using associations to figure out the meanings of new words. Later, we skiddoo, oddly enough, into a blank piece of paper. We soon learn that by using the power of words, a blank piece of paper can become an imaginative and exciting journey down a road leading to an exciting party.

When we come in, we find that there's something very different about Steve's clothing - he's wearing a button-down shirt that looks like his normal pants and striped pants that look like his normal shirt. Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper explain what opposites are and Steve seems to like the idea. We learn more about opposites when a guy named Bob skiddoos out a picture frame into the Blue's Clues house to deliver something to Steve. His presence often causes things to turn opposite. He has a magic ability that can fix it, but it's up to us to first find the things that are opposite so that we can tell him to fix them. Later, we skiddoo into a book where we help out two sisters that like opposite things to make their favorite places.

We also skiddoo into a collage and talk to the characters themselves to try and get a bead on why things happen the way they do in the play.

Steve came up with a device to use to change the channel on the television without getting up, but when he realizes that there's already such a thing, it spurs him to try and create a unique invention following the slogan of ""try again."" When Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper want to eat peanut butter and jelly on bread together, Steve's excited at his solution, only to realize that the ""sandwich"" already exists. We come across Shovel and Pail and play an invention game. We take a look at pictures of inventions and identify the order in which they were invented. Later, we skiddoo into an invention factory, where we take a look at some famous inventions such as a train and a car.

Blue has a special surprise in this episode, but it won't be ready till two o'clock. We spend the time learning more about time itself and helping our friends. We help Tickety Tock learn how to move her hands to indicate times. In a Blue Skidoo segment, we play the ""Race Against Time.""

When it starts raining outside, Steve and Blue aren't upset because they can have lots of fun indoors. In fact, the rain sounds a lot like music. So we take the opportunity to explore all sorts of different music. We find Mr. Salt, Mrs. Pepper and Paprika and help out with their water xylophone. We have fun with Steve tapping out rhythms and we also skiddoo into a farm, where we match up animals based on the songs they're singing.

When we come in, we find that Blue's ears are droopy and she seems to be very sad. We suggest how we and Steve might be able to help her and then we help some of the other characters as well. We help out a felt friend who's scared of someone in an angry looking mask. We also skiddoo into a picture of Blue's school and find several of the students in ""tough situations."" By thinking about their problems, we're able to recommend the better solution of two choices.

Blue has drawn a picture of herself, Magenta and Steve. Steve thinks it would be great to hang it on the refrigerator, but Blue has another idea. As we try to figure what it is, we work on solving some problems step-by-step. We help Steve to figure out who made an ice cream in the kitchen by becoming amateur detectives. We also skidoo into a bakery and follow a step-by-step recipe to make a tasty treat.

Today is Blue's birthday, but we've shown up a little early, so we help to set things up. As we get things set up, we notice things that are out of place or missing and help to make things right. We also play party games and help Steve look for presents in a special skiddoo segment. Many guests come and we watch Blue unwrap presents and also receive some celebrity greetings. To learn more about the video bonus segment for this episode, check the Recap section.

In this episode, we explore the dreams of the various characters. We also learn that if you try hard enough, sometimes you can change your dream. That way, if you're scared by something, you can make it go away. Additionally, we find out that if you try hard enough, sometimes dreams can come true.

It's clean-up time and as we help Steve and Blue to find things to clean up, Steve gets the idea that we could turn the trash into something else. He draws a recycling logo on the screen and in this episode, we learn all about recycling. We help Steve when he encounters a group of recycling bins to figure out what things go in which bin. We help Tickety to make something neat out of her old stuff. Later, we skidoo into Recycle Town where we help the mayor to find ways to recycle all sorts of things, since nothing in Recycle Town is ever thrown away, it's all recycled.

In this episode, we explore our senses, from hearing to touch and more. A hunt for a missing wind-up toy under Steve's bed gets us learning about all sorts of sensations, from something prickly, to something very soft. We test a number of senses when trying to find things while playing ""Lights On, Lights Off."" We also skidoo into a computer game where ""sound notes"" provide us with sounds and we figure out what makes those sounds.

Steve and Blue have been doing experiments to see what things sink and float. We find Shovel and Pail and help them out with their experiments with nature. We take a look at things through a magnifying glass and try to guess what they are. In the Blue Skiddoo segment, we meet up with the Sun and learn all about the different planets in our solar system.

This episode looks at math, mostly counting, but also basic addition and subtraction. We count the steps that it takes to get to various locations. We also help some of our friends with figuring out who has more or less of something. Then, after figuring that out, we help them to total it. We also skiddoo into a present (gift) store, where Steve takes care of buying a new crayon that he needs and even picks up a special extra something.

This episode is all about books, words and letters. Steve himself has A Really Great Book, although we never do get to find out the contents of it. To fit with the theme, various objects are labeled such as the Thinking Chair and even Steve himself. By reading off a grocery list, we help Mr. Salt and Mr. Pepper to due their grocery shopping in order to feed a hungry Paprika. Later, we skiddoo into a storybook and determine the correct order of words to make complete sentences through visual and contextual clue

Steve and Blue have been building things and so in this episode we explore construction and measurement. We find some popsicle sticks assembling themselves in various shapes and try to figure out what they're creating. We help out Shovel and Pail - first to measure their sand castles and see which is taller and then to even them up. Later, in the Blue Skiddoo segment, we help a friend named Tink who was flung out of her contraption world to get back to where she belongs.

Steve isn't feeling well. He has the sniffles and so we try to help him out while learning about healthy things in the process. While in the kitchen, we categorize healthy snacks with Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper, then Steve gets a quick check-up with Shovel and Pail. We also skiddoo into a book, where we meet a girl named Jill who wants us to try to figure out what happens in her story when she goes out to play in the rain.

As we try to figure out Tickety Tock's favorite nursery rhyme, we learn all about rhyming and poetry. We help out Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper to pack a special lunch and learn about alliteration - they only want to pack things that start with a ""p"" sound. We learn about analogies when trying to solve a riddle to help some friends pass a tollbooth. Later, in the Blue Skidoo segment, we help a classic nursery rhyme character to finish a rhyming poem.

Blue's friend, Magenta is coming over to the Blue's Clues house. As we wait for her and get ready, we help out some of our other friends. We help Shovel and Pail with a game of hide-and-seek in the backyard by following footprints. We help Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper create a snack for Magenta and Blue, using the concept of opposites. A Blue Skidoo segment takes us into a felt frame, where we try to help two Felt Friends dress up in costumes.

Today, the Blue's Clues characters are playing ""song games"" - acting out and dancing when singing songs. Steve plays the ""Head and Shoulders"" song game, but we have to help him out to remember some of the words to the song. We join Blue and a monkey in the song game ""Two Little Monkeys."" We have to follow along with the monkey, once again helping out Steve, who keeps forgetting parts of the song and ends up singing some very silly things. We play ""If You're Happy and You Know It"" with Tickety Tock and then we skiddoo to a beach, where we find pairings of animals and try to guess which one of them is dancing along to a noise that can be heard on the beach.

As we come in, Steve thinks that maybe we've grown some and it turns out that Blue's been growing too. As we focus on growing, we learn all about how plants grow. We also find out where they grow when we help some Felt Friends. In addition, an investigation with Shovel and Pail helps us to learn about length and volume.

Today, all sorts of games are being played at the Blue's Clues house, starting with hide-and-seek. We help Steve find Blue and he'd like to play again, but it would seem Blue doesn't want to play any more hide-and-seek. We help Shovel and Pail with a jigsaw puzzle. Later, into a skiddoo segment, we play Gingerbred Boy's game, which is a riddle game to find his house.

This episode is all about trying our best in the hopes of learning something, or getting even better at something we already know how to do. With Blue's encouragement, Steve takes up juggling, advancing from one ball, to two, to three. We help Tickety to tell what time it is by associating times with familiar objects and rituals. In Storybook Forest, we find Grown-Up Baby Bear and explore possible future career options for her, noting that she can be anything she wants to be. We also help young animals to find their parents, noting that some animals change forms as they grow up.

It's a snowy day and we're going outside to play. Before doing that, we observe snowflake patterns with Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper. In a Blue Skidoo segment, we help a calendar kid to fix the scene depicted in a calendar picture to match the winter season. We also help Blue to figure what she's missing when she loses some winter clothing items while trying to get dressed to go outside.

Sometimes, by pretending, you can explore things that you normally couldn't. Steve has an interest in flight and pretends to be a bird and later a plane. We help out some birds who are pretending to see things in clouds. We also play house with Shovel and Pail and later skiddoo into a picture of a jungle and help some ""rare"" animals to find their friends.

Steve and Blue are going to the beach and while we are there, we decide what clothes would be most appropriate to wear to the beach and experiment with physics in a game of sink or float with Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper. Then, we help sea creatures find their way back to the playground by matching their shapes with the coral reef.

Today we're exploring art in many forms. Steve and Blue enjoy painting and Steve has painted a picture of Blue and Blue's painted a nice outdoor scene. Later, we help her out with painting her wagon when she find that she doesn't have the colors that she wants. We help her out by showing that mixing two colors can make a new color. We also help out a color of felt friends to use shapes to make a sailboat. Later, we skiddoo into a picture of an art museum, where we learn that pictures can tell a story. Unfortunately, the story that the pictures represent isn't in the right order, so we use logic to get all the pictures back in the right place.

Needs are the order of the day. After taking care of some gardening needs, we help Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper, who need to know which fruits to wash for their fruit salad.

Then we skiddoo into a picture of a beach where we help Starfish who needs to get to the ocean to get cleaned off.

It's Song Time at the Blue's Clues house. Steve suggests singing ""She'll Be Coming Around the Mountain,"" but Blue doesn't want to sing that.

We help Steve to learn a brand new song. We also skidoo into a farm, where we help some chicks choose the right lyrics and tune for the song ""Row, Row, Row Your Boat.""

It's story time at the Blue's Clues house and in this episode, we get to hear some classic stories and also use our knowledge to help fix problems with some classic stories. Shovel, Pail and Blue act out ""Jack and Jill"" and we fill in important parts of the story - for example, they went up a hill, not a mountain. Later, Blue finds a photo album and we help to arrange some pictures of her and her preschool friend, Magenta, to tell a story. We also visit the home of the Three Bears and use logic to make sure each one gets the right bowl of porridge and cup of milk.

For Mailbox's birthday, there's a special celebration and we're invited to help out. We help decorate the cake for the party by observing patterns.

There, we find the perfect present for Mailbox and then help Blue and Steve to find it when it gets lost among a bunch of other presents.

We also skidoo into a jungle and have some fun finding animals by imitating their sounds.

It's our first day visiting the Blue's Clues house and right away we're welcomed in to join in a snack. Although ""snacking"" is the theme of the episode, there's much more to learn about than that. We help out Blue with a painting, show her the colors she needs. We identify foods by shape and later we find about ""Blue Skiddoo"" and visit a farm, where we help some baby chicks in hats to find their friends.
