- Oh, what a beautiful day for painting!

- Oh, it really is!

- It sure is!

- Do you want to see what I painted, Barney?

- Absolutely!

- Okay.

- Okay.

- Uh-oh, I spilled the paint.

What a mess!

- Well, that all depends on how you look at it, Sarah!

- What do you mean, Barney?

- If you look at the spilled paint like an artist would,

you don't see a mess,

you see a new color!

- [Kids] Wow! Look at that! That's cool!

- [Nick] You made purple!

- [Sarah] It's purple, yeah.

- [Barney] You can make a new color, too!

Just mix two colors together,

and you'll make a new one.

Almost like magic!

- [Barney] Oh, it sure does!

- Look! I made a purple bird house for my blue bird!

- Oh, it looks very cozy!

- And I painted some butterflies!

- They're having fun in the sun!

- And my red flower looks really pretty

next to the purple ones!

- Wow! What lovely bouquet!

- Hi, guys! Hi, Barney!

- [Kids] Hi, Gianna!

- Hi, there, Gianna!

- Cool paintings!

- Oh, thanks!

- Why, thank you!

- You're welcome.

I especially like the one of the purple heart.

- Barney painted that one!

- It's very pretty!

- Aww, I'm glad you think so, Gianna!

- Did anybody check the mail yet?

- No, not yet.

- Then, let's go see!

- Okay! I hope we've got some mail.

- I do, too!

- Well, here's a note for Mr. Boyd,

and a postcard to "Barney and his friends"

from Colleen!

- From Colleen?

- That is so great!

- Will you read it to us, Barney?

- Oh my, I'd be dee-lighted to!

Let's see here.

Dear friends, I'm so excited!

My family is coming for a visit this Saturday.

I'll come to the park as soon as we get to town.

See you soon!

Your friend, Colleen.

- [Kids] Oh, that's great!

- Yay! Coleen is coming to visit!

- When did you say she would get here, Barney?

- The postcard says she'll be here this Saturday.

- Saturday?

That's today!

- Today! That's great!

I can't wait to see her!

- Yeah, me neither!

- Me, too!

- I hope she gets here soon!

- Oh boy, oh boy!

I love getting together with friends!

- I wish we could do something special for Colleen.

- Like what?

- Oh, I don't know.

Something to let her know that we're glad she's here.

- Yeah, something that makes her feel really special.

- We could give her the pictures we painted!

- That's a very nice idea, Nick.

- I'm sure she would like the paintings,

but I want to do something more, something big!

- Maybe we'll think of something to do

while we put away our paints!

- Oh, yeah! Come on!

- Let's go!

- There you go! Bye-bye!

- I'll take Mr. Boyd's mail over to the Tool Shed.

Will you come with me, Barney?

- Sure. Let's go!

That's so nice of you.

- Mr. Boyd really likes gardening!

- [Barney] Uh-huh! His flowers

make the park look very pretty!

- I'm so happy Colleen is coming today!

- Me, too! Colleen is a very special friend!


- I just wish we could think

of a great way to welcome her.

- Well, sometimes it helps

to have a special place to sit and think.

- Like the Idea Bench!

- That's right!

- You can do it!

- I've got it! I've got an idea!

- That's tee-riffic! Oh, boy!

- Hey, everybody!

- What is it?

I know what we can do for Colleen!

- Oh, that's great!

- What is it?

- See this?

- Yes, it's Coleen's postcard.

- And it's purple!

Purple is Coleen's favorite color,

so let's have a purple party for her!

- There's an idea!

- What's a purple party?

- A party where everything is purple.

The decorations, the food, the party clothes.

- And me?

- Especially you, Barney!

- A purple party is a super-dee-duper idea, Gianna!

In fact, I think purple is the perfect color

for just about everything!

- Like today!

- Nice one, Barney! That was great!

- How should we decorate the Caboose?

- Purple flowers would make nice decorations,

and the park has lots of them!

- Well, we shouldn't take the flowers from the park.

- Why not?

- Well, if we take the flowers,

then other people can't enjoy them

when they visit the park.

- Oh, I see.

- Okay.

- So where can we get purple flowers?

- We could make them!

- How do we make flowers?

- It's easy!

My mom and I made some flowers to decorate my room.

I'll show you!

- Oh, boy! Let's go!

- Okay. It sounds really fun!

- I can't wait to see your flowers.

- To make a flower,

first, take a square of paper.

Then twist it together,

and wrap a stem on it.

- [Gianna] That's nice!

- [Barney] Oh, I see.

- Like this!

You can even put leaves on the stem.

- [Kids] That's really nice!


- What a beautiful flower!

- Thanks.

- Could you pass me a sheet of paper, please?

- Sure, Gianna.

- We'll make the vases!

- Okay. And Gianna and I could make flowers.

- [Barney] That's a great idea! Okay!

Your flowers look great!

- How do we make a flower with this coffee filter, Sarah?

- It's really fun!

Just use the markers to color the paper.

- [Nick] Here you go.

- [Barney] Sounds like fun!

- [Sarah] Those are really pretty colors!

- [Kids] Thank you.

- [Barney] That's nice!

- What's next?

- Put it on the tray,

then spray on some water so the color spreads.

It only takes a little bit!

- Okay.

Like that?

- That's right!

Then when it's dry, we twist it

and add a stem like the other flower we made.

- Oh, and we'll have another

pretty purple flower for Colleen's party!

- [Barney] Oh, look at all this.

You did a great job with these flowers!

They are beeaauu-tiful!

- Thanks, Barney!

- Thank you.

- Colleen's sign looks nice, too, Barney!

- Why, thank you, Gianna!

- Where did Tony go?

- That's a good question.

I'm not sure.

- Here I am!

- [Barney] There he is!

- I was up there looking for Colleen in the park!

I didn't see her though.

- That's good because we've got a lot more

to do for her party.

- Now we need to get the food ready!

- Every party needs dee-licious food!

- A purple party needs purple food!

- Well, I have this purple plum.

- I think I have some grape juice!

Grape juice is purple!

- [Barney] You're right, Tony.

- Here it is!

- Oh, that's grape!

I mean great!

- Oh, Barney!

- I only have one though.

- Come on, Nick.

Let's see if we have any purple food.

- Okay.

- I'm sure we'll find something.

- I have some purple jelly beans!

- [Barney] Oh!

- And I have some purple grapes

- [Barney] Oh, wow!

- [Nick] Look, Barney.

The grape juice is dark purple,

and the jelly beans are light purple.

- Well, they're different shades of purple.

But, light or dark, they're both purple.

And they look very yummy to me!

- Me, too! I'm getting hungry!

- Is this enough food for a party?

- [Kids] No, I don't think so!


Not really!

- What are we going to do?

- Hmm. Let me see.

Maybe we could use a little something more.

Like this!

- [Kids] Wow! Look at that!

That's great! Cool!

No, I don't see her.

- We've got decorations and food.

Now we need party clothes.

- I really like dressing up for a party!

- Well, then. Let's see what we can find!

There are lots of things in the closet.

I'm sure we'll find something!

to wear to the party.

- Oh, good idea.

- Let's hide and surprise her when she comes in.

- [Kids] Okay! Let's hide!

Come on, Nick!

- Oh, this is going to be great!

Let me see here.

Where's a good place for me to hide?

Oh, I've got an idea!

She'll never find me.

- Hi, Colleen!

- Hi, Gianna!

- I'm so happy to see you!

- It's great to see you, too!

But where is everybody?

- We're playing dress-up in the Caboose.

Do you want to play with us?

- Sure!

Oh, I like your tiara and your skirt.

Purple is my favorite color.

- I remember!

Come on, let's go!

- [Colleen] Where is everyone?

I thought you said they were in here playing dress-up.

- Surprise!

- Oh, hi there, Colleen!

- Wow! Hi, guys! Hi, Barney!

- Oh, it's nice to see you.

- Hi, Colleen!

- What's going on?

- It's a purple party just for you!

- A party for me?

Thanks, everyone.

- You're welcome, Colleen!

- [Barney] We thought you'd like it!

- We made these flowers for you.
