## SUMMARY

STEVE WANTED TO FIGURE OUT WHAT BLUE WANTS TO DO IN THE SNOW.

## RECAP

IT'S A SNOWY DAY AND WE'RE GOING OUTSIDE TO PLAY. THEY PLAY A GAME OF BLUE'S CLUES TO FIGURE OUT WHAT BLUE WANTS TO DO IN THE SNOW. THE FIRST CLUE WAS A CARROT. LATER ON, THEY OBSERVE SNOWFLAKE PATTERNS WITH MR. SALT & MRS. PEPPER. IN THE SKIDOO SEGMENT, THEY HELP A CALENDAR GIRL TO FIX THE SCENE DEPICTED IN A CALENDAR PICTURE TO MATCH THE WINTER SEASON. AFTER SKIDOOING BACK HOME, STEVE FINDS THE SECOND CLUE ON A HAT. WE ALSO HELP BLUE TO FIGURE WHAT SHE'S MISSING WHEN SHE LOSES SOME WINTER CLOTHING ITEMS WHILE TRYING TO GET DRESSED TO GET READY TO GO OUTSIDE. MAILBOX COMES INSIDE AND SHAKES THE SNOW OFF. SOME GET ON THE THINKING CHAIR. IN THE LETTER, SOME KIDS WERE MAKING PAPER SNOWFLAKES. NOT LONG AFTER THAT, STEVE FINDS THE THIRD CLUE ON A BIG SNOWBALL. STEVE DRAWS IT OUT AND RETURNS TO THE THINKING CHAIR TO PUT ALL 3 CLUES TOGETHER. THE CLUES WERE A CARROT, A HAT AND A SNOWBALL. STEVE THOUGHT THAT THEY COULD PUT THE SNOWBALL IN THE HAT AND HAVE A SNOWBALL SUNDAE WITH A CARROT ON TOP. THAT WAS A SILLY ANSWER. THE VIEWER STUDIED THE 3 CLUES AND THOUGHT MAKING A SNOWMAN WAS A BETTER IDEA. AFTER FIGURING BLUE'S CLUES, STEVE & BLUE HEAD OUTSIDE TO MAKE A SNOWMAN. MR. SALT, MRS. PEPPER, CALENDAR GIRL, AND TICKITY TOCK HELPED DECORATE IT. AFTER THAT, STEVE SINGS THE NOW ITS TIME FOR SO LONG SONG AND THIS EPISODE ENDS.
