Could you help me find Blue?
There she is!

Thanks. Come on.
Hi, Blue.

Great.
Well, just hop on the bus.
We got to go pick up Tickety.
Oh, and don't forget to buckle up.

[barking]
ALL: Good morning, Teacher Blue.
[ringing]
It's weather time! It's weather time!
[barking]
Oh, so we need to figure out
what the weather is like today.
Let's take a look.
So, what is the weather like outside?
Sunny.
It is sunny.
See, there's the sun.
Hey, let's raise our hand.
Um, Teacher Blue, we know the answer.
[barking]
The weather today is sunny.
[excited barking]
Nice weather work.
I'm glad you're my school buddy.
Hey, it looks like
the weather outside is changing.
STEVE: So, what's the weather like now?
Cloudy.
Yeah.
Those clouds just covered up the sun.
Raise your hand, Periwinkle.
Teacher Blue, now it's cloudy outside.
[barking]
Nice work.
Ooh, look.
Look at all the things
we're going to do at school today.
See, we just had weather time
and next we have, um...
What's the next time on Teacher Blue's list?
Story time.
Right. Story time.
I love story time.
And then we have art time
and then we have snack time
and then we have ABC time, and um...
What's the next time after ABC time?
Mail time.
Mail time, of course.
And then we go somewhere on the bus
and then we have song time.
Wait a minute.
The bus.
I love the bus.
Well, where do you think
we're going to go on the bus today?
Let's raise our hand and ask Teacher Blue.
Um, Teacher Blue?
[barks]
Where are we going to go on the bus today?
[happy barking]
We'll play "Blue's Clues"
to figure out where we're going to go on the bus today.
♪ We are going to play Blue's Clues ♪
♪ 'Cause it's a really great game. ♪
So remember, Blue's paw print will be on the clues.
Blue's Clues.
You know, I don't think Teacher Blue
would really just want us to leave the paw print up there.
I know.
We could erase it.
There, nice and clean.
Now we just need our handy-dandy...
Notebook.
Notebook. Right.
Come on.
Hey, Side Table.
We're playing school and Blue is the teacher.
Well, you know what you need for school?
What?
Your notebook.
[giggles]
Thanks, Side Table.
♪ To play Blue's Clues we've got to find a... ♪
Paw print!
Oh, a paw print, right.

A clue?
A clue!
♪ Then we put it in our... Notebook.

so we can figure out
where we're going to go on the bus today?
Great.
It's story time! It's story time!
It's story time.
Come on.
[barking]
Oh, it's my turn to pick out a story.
Okay.
Let's see...
Oh, this is a perfect story for me to read.
See? It's about a bus.
Okay.
"I'm a yellow school bus with a very important job."
What do you think the job could be?
Well... let's see.
"I drive my friends to school each day."
Cool job.
"I open my door and my friends take their seats
"and they never forget
to do one very important thing."
What's that, Steve?
I'm not sure.
What do you think they never forget to do?
Let's see.
They always remember to buckle their seat belts.
We did that, too, remember?
Zip, click.
"Then I make sure my friends get to school safely.
That makes me feel..."
How do you think that makes the school bus feel?
Yeah? Let's see.
"It makes me feel proud
to do such an important job."
I really liked your story, Steve.
Yeah, you did a great job reading, too.
Thanks.
Now I feel proud, too.
Ooh, come on.
A clue! A clue!
You see a clue? Where?
Right there.
There is a clue
right here on this circle.
The circle must be our first clue.
You know what we need.
Our handy-dandy...
Notebook.
Notebook, right.
We can draw a line that curves all the way around.
A circle.
So, where could we go on the bus today
with a circle?
Maybe.
But I think we should find two more clues just to be sure.
It's art time! It's art time!
Art time. Let's go.
Ooh, painting.
You know, I think I'm going to paint a Steve portrait.
Yeah.
I'll start with the outline.
There.
Now I have to paint my shirt my favorite color green.
Uh-oh.
Do we have the color green?
No.
Well, what should we do?
Mix the colors.
Mix the colors.
Great idea.
But what two colors should we mix?
Maybe if we start with yellow.
What color could I mix with yellow to make green?
Blue.
Blue.
Let's try it.
Look at that, it worked.
Yellow and blue make green.
Thanks.
Now I can paint my shirt.
TICKETY: Oh, no.
What's the matter, Tickety?
I don't have any pink paint
and I need to paint my self-portrait.
Oh, well, what could Tickety do
to make pink paint?
Mix the colors.
Yeah, right.
Tickety could mix two colors together to make pink
just like we mixed yellow and blue to make green.
Okay.
So, which two colors can we mix to make pink?
Well, red looks a little like pink.
Okay, so red.
What color should we mix with red to make pink?
White.
White!
Tickety, maybe you should try mixing red paint with white.
Look!
Red and white make pink!
Now I can make my self-portrait.
Look at me!
I'm all pink!
I love art time.
That's a very nice painting, Tickety.
You must be very proud.
Snack time!
It's snack time! It's snack time!
Snack time-- come on!
[clattering]
Sounds like Mr. Salt's cooking something up.
Hey, Mr. Salt, what are we having for snack today?
Well, for school day, I made something special.
Can you tell what they are?
Uh, do you know?
What do these snacks look like?
Buses!
Buses, yeah.
Look at that.
Little cr*cker and cheese buses.
Cool.
Thanks, Mr. Salt.
You're welcome.
A clue, a clue!
You see a clue?
Where? On my bus?
No, on the cheese.
There is a clue on that cheese!
You know what we need?
Our handy-dandy...
Notebook.
Notebook, right.
Okay, cheese.
Let's draw a rectangle with a triangle on top.
Circles and semicircles for the holes
and there-- cheese.
So, what was our first clue?
[accordion playing]
A circle.
Right, a circle.
Now, our second clue is cheese.
Well, where could we go on the bus today
with a circle and some cheese?
Interesting.
Well, I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Hey, Steve, what are you doing?
We're playing school.
Blue is the teacher.
I love school.
That's where I learned about my letters.
In fact, I have one right here.
[laughs]
Thanks, Mailbox.
We just got a letter.
♪ We just got a letter
♪ We just got a letter
♪ We just got a letter
♪ Wonder who it's from?
Look, it's a letter from our friends at school.
Hi, Steve.
Let's go see my classroom. Come on!
This is where we play with our blocks.
[whispering]: This is where we read our books.
This is where we paint.
It's my favorite thing to do.
ALL: Bye, Steve!
Bye.
Hey, do you go to school?
Really?
You know, one day, I want to go to college.
[ringing]: It's ABC Time!
It's ABC Time!
It's ABC Time-- cool!
Yeah!
We're going to play letter detectives.
Blue's going to pull a letter out of that bag.
Right, and then we yell out
when we see something that starts with that letter.
A G!
Okay, so, when you see
something that starts with the letter G
yell out that word, okay?
All right, letter detectives, let's start looking.
Guitar!
Guitar!
Does guitar start with the letter G?
Yes.
Yeah, guitar starts with the letter G.
Guitar.
Great job.
My turn?
Okay.
I pick the letter A!
Okay, letter detectives.
When you see something that starts with the letter A
yell out that word.
I'm looking, I'm looking.
Acorn!
What was that?
What begins with the letter A?
Acorn.
Acorn. Nice job.
Okay, so G is for guitar, and A is for acorn.
Good to know.
My turn, my turn!
Can I pick a letter?
Look what I picked-- an S!
The letter S.
Okay, S.
Looking for something that starts with the letter S.
Uh, I don't see anything.
Do you see anything that begins with the letter S?
Steve.
Steve? Me?
Oh, my name, Steve
begins with the letter S.
Cool.
So, guitar starts with a G.
And acorn starts with A.
And Steve-- that's me-- starts with S.
Steve, do you know what school time is next?
No, what time is next, Tickety?
It's bus time, it's bus time!
We'll go get the bus ready.
We better find our third clue.
Come on.
A clue!
You found our third clue?
Really? Where?
There.
There is a clue on this tomato sauce.
You know what we need?
Our handy-dandy...
Notebook.
Notebook, right.
Okay.
First, an oval, with a line below for the lid
then this shape for the container
and a tomato with a little stem on top.
There, sauce.
Hey, we have all three clues.
You know what that means?
We're ready to sit in our...
Thinking chair!
Thinking chair. Come on!
Now that we're in our thinking chair, let's think.
You will help, right?
Great.
So, we're trying to figure out
where we're going to go on the bus today.
What was our first clue?
[accordion playing]
A circle!
A circle, right.
And our second clue was cheese
and our third clue was tomato sauce.
So where could we go on the bus today
with a circle, cheese and tomato sauce?
Well, the cheese and the tomato sauce
are both things you can eat
but what about the circle?
Yeah, maybe it's something that's shaped like a circle.
But what can you eat
that has tomato sauce and cheese and is shaped like a circle?
Pizza!
Pizza, right!
Because pizza is shaped like a circle
and it has tomato sauce and cheese on top.
Blue, are we going out for pizza on the bus today?
