Because, I mean, look at
all these great presents.

Mailbox.

What?

Yeah, right, mailbox.

You know,
you really are very smart.

Hmm.

So, can you help us find
a present for mailbox here?

[ Barking]

Let's see.

A toolbox, a coloring book

A stamp collecting book
and a pair of overalls.

Which thing do you think
mailbox would like the most?

[ Barks
"I don't know"]

A toolbox?

Mailbox might like that.

A coloring book?

Maybe.

Let's see what else there is.

Overalls?

No way!

That wouldn't even fit him.

No.

A stamp book?

Yeah! Stamp book.

A stamp book?

A stamp book-- that's brilliant.

Mailbox loves stamps

Because stamps are on letters,
and mailbox delivers letters!

Let's get that one!

This is going to be so special.

[ Barks]

I'm going to get wrapped now.

I'm so excited!

Purple stripe
wrapping paper, please.

Where?

Right there.

It's behind you.

I don't see it.

Oh!

[ Chuckles]

Hey.

This chair has
blue's paw prints on it.

It must be one of...

Blue's clues!

Okay, all right.

I got it.

I know what to do.

We need our handy-dandy...

Notebook!

Notebook.

Okay.

So, we have a chair.

Curve here...

We're ready for our...

Thinking chair.

Thinking chair!

Now that we're in our
thinking chair, let's think.

Okay.

We need to figure out

What mailbox's favorite
birthday party game is.

Blue's clues are:

A tape player...

A tape cassette...

And a chair.

Hmm.

So we put the tape cassette
inside the tape player

And that made...

Music-- right.

Hmm.

So what game can you play

By making music with a tape
player and a tape cassette

And with a chair?

Music and chair.

And chair.

Music...

What?

Musical bears?

No, musical chairs.

Oh, musical...

Yes!

Yes, that's it!

That's the answer--
musical chairs!

Wow.

You make music

By putting the tape cassette
inside the tape player

And you play the game
with chairs!

That's it!

That's mailbox's
favorite birthday party game.

He loves to start
and stop the music.

Actually, mailbox,
this is a letter for you.

For me?

Wow!

Happy birthday, mailbox!

Thanks, everyone.

That's a really
