By Rand Fortescue

You can delight your preschooler by holding a fun, fantastic theme birthday party using Blues Clues party supplies. Blue is everyone's favorite television puppy and a hit with the under 5 crowd. You can order supplies on line or get the kids together and make these Blue's Clues invitations and decorations yourself.

Blue's Clue fans know how much she loves to get mail. So will your little guests if in the mail is a personalized, Blues Clues birthday invitation. It's as simple as cutting out 3x5 cards from heavy stock paper or using recipe sized cards. On one side, draw or stamp a big, blue paw print and write "here's your first clue. Now, you know what to do !" On the other side, use colorful markers or stamps to write out the birthday party details.

Blue loves it when Joe and all her friends throw her a party and so will your child. The color scheme should be blue and white, naturally, with plenty of balloons, streamers and table ware. Again, draw Blue's paw print with a blue marker on everything, or if you have a rubber stamp, stamp paw prints along the outside rim of plain white paper plates. Do the same on white Styrofoam or paper cups as well as a white paper tablecloth. If you have a Blues Clues stuffed toy, tie helium balloons to the paws and use it as a centerpiece.

If you have plenty of lead time, make Joe's house out of a large appliance box. Cut out the doors and windows, paint the roof red and the walls orange. For Blue's party favors you can make simple ones using some of Blue's favorite activities and accessories.

Handy dandy notebooks can be had by visiting your local dollar store and picking up some small notebooks for each guest. Ask each child to sit in their "Thinking Chair" and decorate their notebooks using stickers, markers, ribbons and bits of fabric. Pail and Shovel are two of Blue's favorite back yard friends. The dollar store is a great resource. Buy a pail and shovel for each guest and draw character faces on them with an indelible marker.

Dress-up items can be popular Blue's Clue party supplies, Blue's ears can be easily made using a white ball cap or painter's hat with a peak. You'll need blue and red felt for the ears and tongue and a black marker to draw the face. Cut long, droopy ears out of the blue felt and a tongue out of the red. Then glue, staple or sew the ears and tongues on each hat.

Blue's dog cookies: We mean people cookies, of course! Using your favorite sugar cookie recipe, cut dog paw shapes out of the rolled dough, bake and decorate with blue icing. All it takes is a little bit of work, some creative Blues Clue party supplies and you'll have created a party your child will remember forever.
