Clues’ Goals
Blues’
Clues videos are very popular with young children, but parents
watching them may not always know the education goals of each
episode. Following is information about What experiment does
Blue want to try? from Blues’ Clues own goal sheets:
The goal of this episode is for viewers to explore the science
concepts of magnification, magnetic properties and the solar system.
Topics covered are science and experimentation, knowledge of the
solar system and visual perception. Blue wants to try the cyclone
experiment and she also tries the ‘sink or float’ experiment with
Steve. Steve removes the pawprint with a magnet, and kids experiment
with magnets. Throughout the episode there is the repetition of
the word ‘experiment’.
