The Blue’s Clues Potty Seat

Blue’s Clues is a television show that originally aired on Nickelodeon in 1996. The popularity of the show was instantaneous and consistent. The show was different from other shows aimed at preschoolers (such as Sesame Street) that were variety shows that the children only watched. Blue’s Clues invited the children to interact with what the little blue dog and his human friend were doing that day, thereby holding their interest in the adventure much longer than other television shows. Every episode features Blue, the dog, leaving behind three clues to find an object that is related to the overall storyline (like what Blue wants to dress up as when everyone else is dressing up too). The human host of the show then interacts with the audience to find the clues, write them down, and then solve the puzzle. The repetitive nature of the show is its biggest success.

The popularity of Blue’s Clues is still at a high point and so manufacturers are continuing to put out merchandise with Blue and his friends on it. This merchandise includes potty seats for young children in the potty training process. Below we review two of those potty seats, the Blue’s Clues Soft Potty Seat and the Blue’s Clues Folding Potty Seat.

The Blue’s Clues Soft Potty Seat actually comes in a variety of designs. I have found designs that incorporate the thinking chair, other characters, just Blue in different poses, and one with Blue plus sweaters in different colors and a duck (Boris) just to name a few. This potty seat features a very comfortable and soft cushion that is easy to clean. The Blue’s Clues Soft Potty Seat fits both round and elongated toilets, so it is versatile, but not all of the seats have handles like some potty seats do, so it can be less convenient to move to and from the toilet. The potty seat can be found at Drugstore.com for $12.99, Amazon for $14.49 (Thinking Chair) or $15.95 (with Boris), and at Potty Training Concepts for $14.95.

The Blue’s Clues Folding Potty Seat features a dark blue background with four different scenes with Blue. Each scene has a different color background. This seat folds so that it can fit into the diaper bag without much bulk so it is very portable. The Blue’s Clues Folding Potty Seat can be found at Amazon for $9.99, at Potty Training Concepts for $14.95, and at S&D; Kids for $8.99.

Whether you are choosing the Blue’s Clues Potty Seat for home or travel you and your child will be happy that you did. The colors are fun, the seats are comfortable, and the prices are affordable. It is like your little one has their very own thinking chair for the potty!
