First of all, "Bedtime Business" is a cool song to jam to before going to bed. My favorite track is "Paprika's Lullaby" because Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper and Paprika are 3 of my favorite characters from the Show! "Day Turns Into Night" is a Jazzy number sung by an owl. New kids play Tickety and Slippery, whom I also Love. The end of the cd will bore little ones to sleep, IT HAS TO! The last song, "My Bed" willremind you of the "Twin Peaks" theme. The Hidden track is Blue's Dream.

There is not one thing I don't like about this CD. I've been using it with my three-year-old since he was a cranky baby who wouldn't go to sleep. We'd cuddle up and listen and he'd be out in moments. Steve's voice is especially noticeable in this; you start to realize that the man can actually carry a tune! (also evident in the not-for-children "Songs For Dustmites", by the way) The absolute sweetest part, though, is the hidden track, "Blue's Dream". If the kids are still awake for that part, this will make them feel as though they've drifted off to sleep and are living right in Blue's dream. I thought it was a perfect end to a great CD. I highly recommend it.

My 3 1/2 year old son adores this CD. We listen to it in the car almost daily, and now at night, he has begun to request that I sing him "Paprika's Lullabye." Since I have heard it so many times, I am happy to oblige. It's a sweet lullabye full of delicious images for little ones, even including a moment worthy of Edith Piaf in there!

The music and words are so catchy and infectious, you'll hear them in your head all the time! It can be EMBARASSING to suddenly belt out something like "It's our bedtime business; it's our sleepy time checklist" in public! Seriously, we have just discovered Blue's Clues, and my 5 year-old son just loves this and the Treasure Hunt CDs. We're constantly singing little snatches of the songs to one another. So if you're in Wal-mart, and you hear a mother and son singing Paprika's Lullabye, you'll know it's us!

I like this CD, but more importantly my son loves it. He'll answer the questions, and laugh when it's funny.
I just love "Goodnight Bird", because it's a funny little story that reminds of my son fighting sleep every night.
The music is really good. Excellent singers, and very good musicians makes the jazzy CD easy to fall asleep to.

My mother got this for me for my birthday when I was 15. I had a big thing for Blue's Clue. It was a fun kids show! It's wonderful, excellent background noise to go to sleep to. When I was a nanny for two kids, this was their favorite bed time CD. They would listen to this, rather than watch TV. I really miss Steve, but that's okay, I still have episodes on VHS that I'm converting to a digital format. When I have children, I hope they enjoy this CD, too.

My daughter loves the story and music and has listened to this CD until I know every word! She doesn't listen to it to go to sleep though as it keeps her awake because she stays awake to keep listening... so I recommend the CD but not for helping with settling to sleep.

Our family has loved this CD for over 4 years now. Yes we did forget about it for about a year or so, then my kids re-discovered it at the library (ours is lost) and we've been listening to it for weeks! My 6 year old is on a mission to find her lost CD so she can listen to it every night again. It is so soothing, fun, and well, just perfect! Now my son wants his own copy too so I guess we need to buy another copy!! Great job Steve and Blue!

My 18 month old daughter loves this CD! This is her cue that she needs to go to sleep (for naps and night time). This CD does a good job of leading your child into a Blue's Clues search with her imagination. Plus it follows the same plot as the episode for Goodnight Blue.
