I remember talking about the story of the Chinese Farmer and you said that the only reason you know the story is through Bluey!

It's true! Another amazing episode that teaches things aren't inherently good or bad. They just are, and we can choose to look at them however we want. Bluey is so profound!

Your piece reminded me of watching “thoughtfully written” children’s shows with my own young children and grandchildren. Yes, I looked forward to watching them and remember to this day, the simple life lessons they taught me, my children and grandchildren.

I love this, Karen. So many thoughtful shows with thoughtful messaging out there. It's extra important these days.

Blue's Clues was one of the programs my grandson and I watched. I remember when the very first "adult" was going to leave the show to go to college and how much I knew I would miss him. The writers handled the transition so well for both the children and adults who were fans.
