Toddlers love this video
This a cute fun video and one of my favorite blues clues videos. I'm a home daycare provider. Over the yrs I have collected over 100 kids videos. Blue's Big Pajama Party seems to entertain my daycare kids ages 14 months to 5 yrs greatly. I also enjoy singing along to the tunes. I do agree with the one reviewer who was bother by the a dream catcher part of the video. I think they should have at least say something on the box about this. Some people really don't want their children to know about this new age teaching. But saying that I still would have bought this video for the other parts of the video. I like that this video tries to help children understand that we all have bad dreams and that we can change are dreams if we think really hard.

One of my favorites from the series
My three and a half year old loves Blue's Clues, and as a result, I've bought almost all of the videos available on Amazon. This is one of my personal favorites because of the Pyjamanauts sequence and its simple way of explaining night and day. I don't really "get" the segment about changing your dreams, and find that part less satisfactory.

Pure fun and learning.
I thought that this video was wonderful. The segment with the Pajamanauts was just great, though frighteningly unrealistic (Blue and Steve were floating around in space, without space-suits and were having a personal conversation with the sun. In real life they would've either fried or died of lack of oxygen. But I do understand that this is a childrens show so things like that are easily excused. Kids will come to understand that later in life.)This whole episode was just really great. I recommend it for everyone who's ever been a fan of Blue's Clues.Blue's Clues rocks. It's a great show for all ages. Well, every episode that was Pre-Joe is great. Joe tries too hard. That is all.

Guidence required for Christian parents
I'm the father of a toddler who absolutely loves Blue's Clues, and in general these tapes are of such uniform high quality that there's nothing to complain about. They're both educational and entertaining, and an adult can tolerate them without pain -- unlike a certain infamous purple dinosaur. So I only plan to comment on those tapes I've seen that present a problem in some way. These will get 3 stars from me, which is the lowest score I could ever bring myself to assign to anything in this series. I have nothing but good things to say about any Blue's Clues tape we own that I don't review, but since that's just saying the same thing as everyone else there's no point in adding to it.The first episode is highly satisfactory. Over the course of the pajama party we learn about nocturnal animals and take a look at the solar system to find out why night happens on the way to figuring out what Blue wants to do at the party. The second episode is the one with the problem. In general it's very good. It's about dreams, with a special focus on dealing with nightmares. (My kids aren't really prone to nightmares, so I have no way of gaguing how effective it is.)But then we get to the "Letter" segment, where we see two girls making "dream catchers." A dream catcher is a traditional Native American object that's supposed to ensnare bad dreams before they reach the sleeper. I'm told it's found mainly among the Ojibway (Chippewa). I don't know if other peoples use it as well, but it has in any event become a staple of New Age spirituality. The older woman guiding the girls tells them that "spirits and dreams are all around us." As the project is completed, we see they're not making the dream catcher in the usual spiderweb pattern, but with the pentacle symbol used by modern Wicca and neopagan practitioners, and it's then hung over the bed in the same place a Roman Catholic might hang a cross. If you're a Christian believer, you may find this section in direct opposition to some of the teachings of your faith, and you may need to provide guidance to your children if you allow them to watch it. It appears to be not-so-subtle proselytism for either Native American, Wiccan, or neopagan faiths, and I can only speculate as to why the producers of Blue's Clues decided to include it. I've never seen a pro-Christian equivalent in this show, which is otherwise areligious.

recommended video for all parents of Blues Clues lovers
My children LOVE this movie. Both will sit still and quietly not fighting to watch the entire thing. That in itself rates as a good kid movie for me. They will ask to watch it, and always sing the songs after it's over.
