Clifford The Big Red Dog may be big and red, but as far as he's
concerned he's just like any other dog. That's why, when Clifford tries to do
what other dogs do, things can get a little out of hand. Sometimes he gets into
trouble. Sometimes he saves the day. Most of the time he has a lot of fun. All
of the time he's a good dog and true friend.
Children direct this skill-building journey through Clifford's neighborhood
looking for ways to make his party big fun!
Throughout the adventure, entertaining activities encourage each child to use
their thinking and reasoning skills as well as their imagination. In addition,
kids are presented with challenges that require them to use their problem
solving skills to complete various steps. The celebration begins once children
have everything they need to throw a party big enough for Clifford!
