“Blue’s Clues & You” is getting ready to celebrate Pride.
The animated kids’ show had enlisted the help of “RuPaul’s Drag Race” star Nina West.

In a video posted on Friday, a cartoon version of West leads a sing-a-long about LGBTQ+ families including non-binary children and households with two moms or two dads.
All the families in the video are made up of animals during a parade, waving rainbow flags. Words like “queer”, “trans” and “pan” are all used for the sing-a-long.

The reaction on social media has been overwhelming.
This children’s cartoon segment has more queer representation than anything else out there and it is melting my cold gay heart ??️?? pic.twitter.com/ppWns4UZEQ

Words cannot describe how happy this makes me. Blue’s Clues was my favorite as a kid, and I cannot believe that it would continue to be important to me as an adult.
“And P is full of Pride!”

Blue’s Clues literally featured a queer nonbinary disabled dolphin, the rest of the media needs to buck up their ideas. pic.twitter.com/wjH0GgM28q
