Description:

Humongous has struck gold with Blue's Treasure Hunt for kids ages 3-6!!! The 2-disc CD-ROM set is packed with fun and possesses the ability to teach your child fundamental skills in a variety of areas. Watch your children's skills increase as they problem solve with Blue and Steve.

THE GOAL

The ultimate goal of Blue's Treasure Hunt is to enter the Land of Great Discovery. Getting there will require that your child complete three different treasure hunts in sequence. Each hunt requires children to find three scrolls that will lead them to the treasure chest, and collect and share 2-3 objects to find all three Blue's Clues. Solve Blue's Clues and obtain the key to give to Treasure Bug to open the chest. When the third chest is unlocked the door to the Land of Great Discovery will open where even more treasure awaits.

ACTIVITIES

There are eleven different activities to explore as kids play Blue's Treasure Hunt.

Disc 1: What is Paprika's Most Treasured Thing? directs kids to catch falling leaves for Green Kitten's school bulletin board, help Spatula and Blue fix jumbled museum paintings and create bedtime stories for Paprika.

What is Mailbox's Most Treasured Thing? will encourage children to explore Mary's garden in search of numbers for the Hickory Dickory Dock clock, and help Shovel and Pail match pictures to letters to mail to friends. Kids can also listen to and play Blue's Clues songs (an interactive keyboard makes this one a real hit).

Disc 2: What is Magenta's Most Treasured Thing? requires kids to arrange photos in the correct order, help Orange Kitten identify objects that have been added or taken away from the supply closet and help Magenta finish one of her pictures or create one of their own.

The Land of Great Discovery keeps kids playing and playing and playing as they design their own personal world using painting and drawing tools and 400 pre-made stickers.
