Decorations:
Sapphire blue, orange, yellow, and navy blue streamers, balloons, Blue’s Clues balloons, party hats, a fun Blue’s Clues piñata, and Blue’s Clues posters can add to great decorations for your birthday party.
Have different clues lying around that lead to a huge surprise. Include different sized magnifying glasses, and even designate someone to be "Steve" to help the little "Blues" find their way. Hang a huge Blue’s Clues Happy Birthday banner at the entryway of the door to welcome your little guests!
Decorate your tables with blue, yellow, or orange plastic table cloths, magnifying glasses with each child’s name on it, and a table-sized dog house in the center of the table. Use Blue’s Clues plates, tableware, napkins, and other Blue’s clues-designed items to put on the table.
Have Blue’s Clues face painting or Tattoos to start off your party! www.orientaltrading.com is a great place to find some great Blue’s Clues face craft fun!
Have the kids create a Blue’s favorite things album, using stickers, magazine cutouts, etc to enable them to create an album of their favorite things to take home and to share with each other!
6-10 yr olds
Have your little guests create a Blue’s Clues friendship frame or album. Include fun photos from the party taken with a Polariod that they can take home later, or have them create one friendship album for the birthday boy or girl.
Have your guests create their own mystery/scavenger hunt! Make sure they include Blue, Magenta, and Steve as part of the journey, and once finished, have them trade to see if the others can solve the mysteries!
Game Ideas:
2-6 yr olds
Nick Jr’s site has great game ideas, such as "Blue’s Clues Fill in the Blank stories". Pick a story such as Blue’s Exciting Ride Story or Magenta’s Missing Crayon, ask your kids the questions on each (printable) story, having them fill in the blanks. Once they have finished, read the story they have created out loud!
Have a Blue’s Clues Bug Safari. Hide different bugs (fake ones preferred!) of different shapes and sizes around a room, and have the kids go looking for the bugs!
6-10 yr olds
Scavenger "Mystery" Hunt! Give each child a map and a magnifying glass, and send them on a mystery hunt. Make sure that at each step of the way, there is a Blue clue associated with it!
Make sure your Blue’s Clues piñata is filled with goodies - then let the kids have a whack at the piñata! It will be great fun for all kids, and will ensure that each child brings home some goodies from the party!
Cake Idea:
This stunning Blues Clues birthday cake is easy to make with our step by step photo instructions and free template.
The step-by-step photo instructions as well as a link to the FREE template can be found here.
Food Idea:
Kids love food! With too many activities and crafts, it may be difficult to incorporate too much food, but here is a fun, easy food idea to match with the theme of the party:
Puppy Chow - made with wheat, rice, and corn chex, along with sugar, chocolate, and powdered sugar, this yummy treat will even make Clifford behave! Easy to make and fun to eat, it looks like real puppy chow!
Incorporating just a few of these fun ideas will ensure your little guests have a fun time with Blue, Magenta, and Steve!
