Amazon.com Review: Are you ready for the Thinking Chair? It's Blue's birthday, and that makes for lots of mystery-solving fun. Formatted to resemble the popular television series, children have to find three clues to solve the bigger mysteries: What does Blue want to give as party favors? What games will her guests play at the party? And what kind of cake does she like?
There's a whole slew of new characters to meet in Birthdayland, many games to play within the party planning, and four different places to "skidoo" to. This is the most fun we've had with deductive reasoning in a long time. With three levels of difficulty that can be set for individual players during the same game, it's entirely possible the toddlers will be the first to solve the mysteries. As a guest at Blue's party, each person can also select a special gift for Blue and design his own card. Grab your own Handy Dandy Notebook and join the fun. --Jill Lightner

Rating: - Great game Blues birthday!!
It is a great game and you get 2 cds, 4 games in all. Its like the movie you search for clues. There are 3 level which makes it more fun, my 8 year old daughter had fun. It can be played by 5 to 9 years.
Rating: - The best game for prescholers!!!!!
I have a 3 year old and a 4 year old. This game will keep thier attention for hours, taking turns and working together. It is great because EVERYTHING does something when you click on it. It keeps thier attention and they don't even realize they are learning. I am currently looking for more comperable games. Any suggestions?
Rating: - Love it, but a few gliches
My daughter (2 1/2) is an avid Blue's fan, and this was our first computer software purchase for her. While she enjoys it immensely, she is also frustrated by the wait time (she keeps telling Steve to hurry up and move into the next scene.) I am not very pleased with the sound quality. The songs go much faster than the graphics, thus Steve is finished moving well before the music is finished playing. Overall I find it engaging for her level and if you have the extra cash recommend it if your child likes Blue.
Rating: - My son loves this!! Very educational / never dull
My 3 yr old son loves this 2-cd rom game. It's very educational and it keeps his interest. He gets so excited when he finds the clues. Everytime I look he's playing this game. His alphabet & number comprehension has improved alot. 5 stars from me!!
Rating: - Very Pleased
This game is great my three year old Daughter loves it. She gets frustrated when she goes from screen to screen it does take some time. She finds the clues, and is very plased with herself. I highly recommend it.
