We also help some of our friends with figuring out who has more or less of something. Then, after figuring that out, we help them to total it. We also skiddoo into a present (gift) store, where Steve takes care of buying a new crayon that he needs and even picks up a special extra something.

Blue has a toy plane she enjoys flying, but when she tries to fly it, it falls, hits the ground and breaks. We help her to fix it by showing her that it just had a broken wing and she can tape it. We are enlisted as mechanics and help characters to solve their mechanical problems and questions. We show Shovel and Pail how ramps work. We have great fun with a tape recorder and later skidoo into a game board. There, we help several characters that are experiencing trasnportation difficulties.

When Steve asks for help with some heavy groceries, it gets us thinking about weight and balance. We decide to compare the weights of some of the groceries and then later things around the Blue's Clues house. With the help of a scale, we solve a debate between Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper. Later, in the Blue Skiddoo segment, we help out customers at a Country Store who are looking to buy some things that are very light.

Blue has a new place. Steve and the viewers gather what is new in her place. We also see Paprika's new place.

In this episode, we help the various characters to come up with words that rhyme with things they're saying. Rhymes are words that have the same ending sound as another word, such as "say" and "hay," or "head" and "bed." Lullabies usually rhyme and so we help Mr. Salt to create one to get Paprika and Cinnamon to sleep. We also skiddoo into a rhyming storybook. There we help out several characters whose stories aren't quite right because one of the things in them doesn't rhyme with the other two things.

Blue has created a fun game called Shape Searchers. She pulls out a shape from a bag of hers and we try to find it. In this episode, we search for shapes in all sorts of places, pointing them out as we see them. We also have a Blue Skidoo segment filled with shapes. We meet some shapes and show them how they can combine with other shapes to make various things.

At the top of the episode, Steve is playing show-and-tell. He's trying to figure out what he should show. He thinks maybe his stuffed toy, Horace the Anteater would be a good idea, or maybe his guitar. He gets a phone call and it turns out that it's from his brother, Joe. He's going to be coming over and is going to play show-and-tell with everyone. Throughout the episode, Steve plays show-and-tell with the various characters. He also spends time working on a picture to show to Joe and asks for the audiences' help. Finally, Steve has the viewers watch for Joe. He finally shows up and he and everyone else share their show-and-tell items together.
