Well, as much as I hate to say it, I have to give Blue’s Clues a thumbs down. Don’t get me wrong, I like the show. I think it is a clean show and has a lot to offer kids, but I have 2 problems with them thus far.

1.) In the theme song when they solve a clue they sing “we gotta use our minds, take a step at a time and we can do anything, that we want to do.” As my husband pointed out, this is nonsense. We can’t do anything we want to do! However,  ”I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” Phillipians 4:13

2.) Until just a couple of days ago all of the Blue’s Clues I had seen had not contained any inappropriate matter, with the exception of the above, but then I saw Blue’s Big Pajama Party. I was watching it and all of a sudden they started talking with this lady who was showing two children how to make dream catchers and how they catch the “spirits.” This example of paganism is completely unacceptable to be allowing into our homes. For these two points Blue’s Clues is getting a thumbs down.
