Turn snack time into a learning
activity just like they do on Blue's Clues. In "What
Does Blue Want to Make?" Blue and Kevin decide

they read the recipe so that they can tell which ingredients
do and don't belong. Then, they make sure they have
the appropriate quantity and measurements of those ingredients.
