By leading children through a series of clues, Blue’s Clues & You! taps into their natural curiosity and helps them develop problem solving skills.

“ Blue’s Clues & You! delightfully takes children on a journey where they learn through play, song, drawing and imagination. When children play, their brain lights up with new connections and they develop important physical, cognitive, emotional and social skills. Play increases engagement, and engagement increases learning!”

Parents can enable the skill by saying, “Alexa, open Blue’s Clues,” and granting permission in the Alexa App.

A remake of the ground-breaking, curriculum-driven interactive series Blue’s Clues, Blue’s Clues & You! has a new generation of preschoolers searching for clues with beloved puppy Blue and new live-action host Josh (Josh Dela Cruz).

The series features new CG-animation for Blue and Magenta, brand-new elements and refreshed iconic items from the original series including The Thinking Chair, an updated Handy Dandy Notebook equipped with smartphone technology and the return of fan-favourite characters.
