==Plot==
A carnival as arrived on Birdwell Island, and Clifford, Emily Elizabeth, Cleo, T-Bone and many more of their friends go to it to have lot's of fun. At the carnival, Phineas T. Wordsworth would love some help, cause he's a bit short handed. Emily and all her friends decide to help out. Then later tonight after the carnival, there will be a grand parade. So Clifford, Cleo, T-Bone, Emily and all their friends start to help out around the carnival.
The player helps Clifford, Cleo and T-Bone find all of Phineas' decorations for a parade float. The float is in a big striped tent with a red flag on top of it, which is where Phineas will store all the prizes the player wins when they win them. To win prizes to use to decorate the parade float, the player plays activity games on phonics. Every time the player wins a game, the prize cart comes and the player could choose which one they'd like. After winning enough prizes, they could go to the big striped tent and use the pries they won to decorate the parade float.
After decorating the float, they could start the parade. When the parade starts, it'll feature the things the player helped the characters out with in the carnival like the balloons they've blown in Inflate the Balloon and the silly story they're wrote with Charley in Silly Stories and it'll also feature the float they decorated. Clifford, Cleo and T-Bone then thank the player for starting the best parade Birdwell Island has ever seen.
==Activities==
There are many activities to play all over the carnival that the player could win prizes on to decorate the parade float.
===Inflate the Balloon===
After Clifford accidentally breaks the hoses off the machine that was blowing the balloons for the parade, Emily Elizabeth has an idea to help blow them up. The player fixes the machine and Clifford does the blowing to inflate the parade balloons. To reconnect the hoses, the player must first click on a picture on the red side of the machine and then pick it's matching word on the blue side of it. When all three words are matched up on both sides, the hoses are reconnected and Clifford starts blowing to inflate the balloon. After matching enough three words on the machine reconnecting the hoses, Clifford would finally blow the balloon all the way up and it'll be ready for the parade. Each balloon the player helps Clifford and Emily blow up will appear in the parade at the end of the game.
===Ferris Wheel===
At the carnival's ferris wheel, T-Bone gets excited to ride it and goes on the ride with Mac also on it. When the ferris wheel starts moving, some kids and Jetta Handover come, but then the ferris wheel breaks down, leaving T-Bone and Mac stranded on it. Clifford though then starts to move the ferris wheel with his head which gives Jetta an idea. The ferris wheel runs on word power, and the player needs to fix all the word families to power it up. To fix the word families on the ferris wheel, the player first looks at the kid in the front of the line to see which letter is on the balloon the kid is holding, and then they have to find the word and picture on the ferris wheel that the letter goes on. When the player clicks on the correct one, Clifford will move the ferris wheel and get that word and picture down to the bottom and that kid goes on the ride and the next kid gets in the front of the line. After all the kids with balloons are on the ferris wheel, Jetta goes on the ride and she, Mac, T-Bone and the other kids enjoy their ride on the ferris wheel.
===Silly Stories===
At the Silly Stories Booth, the player helps Charley write really silly stories. To write the stories, the player uses words that start with a certain letter. The player chooses two things that start with that letter that they want to use. After choosing two things that begin with that letter for the story, the player must next pick a color for the story. After choosing the color, the player must next pick a way to travel in the story. After choosing the way to travel in the story, everything for the story is complete, and Charley reads the silly story to the audience. After Charley reads the story, the player could click on a read button to listen to it again, an erase button to start over again, a print button to print their silly story out or a prize cart button if they're all done and ready to pick a prize for the float.
===Tightrope Rhyming===
In a circus tent, when T-Bone rides a unicycle, Clifford lifts up a tightrope with T-Bone on it to ride across it. To balance on the tightrope, T-Bone needs two balls. The second ball for T-Bone to use to stay balanced must have a picture that rhymes with words that Cleo says. When pictures appear on three balls, Cleo says a certain word and the player must click on the ball with the picture that rhymes with the word she says. Then after clicking on it, the player must put the ball in a canon and it'll get launched up to T-Bone, and he'll ride the unicycle across the tightrope. After launching enough rhyming balls to T-Bone to help keep him balanced, he'll make it all the way across the tightrope making the audience cheer for him.
===Cow Herding===
At a field of cows, Cleo decides to round all the cows up in the pen rodeo style. To round up the cows, the player must find the cow with the right letter to get her to move. When the gate closes, the player looks at it to see which letter is on it. When the player sees which letter is on the gate, the player clicks on the cow wearing that letter and that cow moves through the gate and into the pen. After six of the cows are moved into the pen, when one cow is left, Cleo gets on that's cow's back and she rides the cow around the ring.
===High Dive===
At the carnival's high dive, Violet Bleakman plans to perform a legendary high dive act. Using Clifford as a diving board, the pool must be filled with water before Mrs. Bleakman could do her act. With the help from an elephant, the player looks at three buckets, and when pictures appear on them, the player must click on the one with the picture that starts with a certain letter sound with that letter in the pool. After clicking on the correct one, the elephant sucks the water out of that bucket with it's trunk and fills the pool up. After clicking on enough buckets of water with certain letter sounds on it, the elephant will fill the pool all the way up to the top and Mrs. Bleakman does her legendary dive. She jumps off Clifford and lands in the pool with a big splash, making the pool empty again.
===Big Striped Tent===
Inside the big striped tent, the player uses the prizes they're won on each of the games to decorate the parade float. They could choose three different kind of floats, an alphabet float, a doghouse float or a castle float and the player could use many of the prizes they won to decorate the float, as well as color it in. When the player is done decorating it, they can click on a parade sign to start the parade. When the parade gets started, the player sees the float they decorated in the parade, as well as other things the player helped the characters out with in the carnival. Clifford, Cleo and T-Bone then thank the player for starting the best parade Birdwell Island as ever seen.
