- She's very nice.

How was your day?

- Oh, mine was good.

- I learned about flowers today.

(toy car clattering)

- Where did that car come from?

- I think I know!

- Wow, it went really far that time!

- [Both] Oh, hi, Mario!

- Hi, Kami, hi, Gianna!

What do you think of my new car?

- I like it! - Yeah, it's neat!

- It's the kind of car I want to drive when I'm older!

- Yeah, you're too big to fit in this one.

- But I think I know someone who will fit!

- Yeah, Barney will!

- Okay, Barney.

Ready,

set,

go!

(laughs) - [All] Barney!

- That was fun, let's do it again!

- But Barney, I think you're too big for my car now!

- Well, then let's go for a ride in my car!

- [All] Your car?

- You have a car, Barney?

- I sure do!

Open the door here and step in.

Just use your imaginations and hop in!

- [All] Okay!

- And don't forget to buckle your seat belts!

(car doors closing) Very good.

And away we go!

Okay, everybody out now.

- [Kami] Okay.

- Thanks, Barney.

That was fun!

- Yeah! - [Kami] Sure was!

- You're very welcome.

Now, let me just park my car here.

Let's see where I can put this.

(vehicle beeping) Maybe back here.

This'll work.

- Here we go!

- Open the door and step out.

Oh, great! (car chirping)

- Hey, look!

(kids exclaiming in awe)

- I guess Mario isn't the only one who brought a car today!

- I wonder who it belongs to?

(car whirring) - Whoa!

- A car that moves all by itself.

- How did it do that?

- [Gianna] It's driving away!

- Let's follow it, come on!

- [Kids] BJ! - Oh, hi there, BJ!

- Hi, guys, hi Barney!

- Is that your car, BJ?

- Yeah.


Isn't it cool?

(all agreeing)

- His car looks different from yours, Mario.

- Yeah!

BJ's is a race car.

- [Barney] Even though they're different,

they have a lot of things that are the same.

- [Kami] You're right, Barney!

They both have four wheels.

One,

two,

three,

four!

- [Mario] And places for people to sit.

- [Kami] And they both have bumpers.

- And they're both fun to drive!

(all agreeing)

- My car doesn't drive by itself, though.

I have to push it.

- Oh, mine doesn't drive by itself either.

I drive it with this!

See? - Cool!

- Whoa!

(all clamoring)

- Sorry, guys!

I still haven't quite got the hang of it yet!

- That was fast!

- It sure was!

We'd better look both ways before we cross this street.

You never know what will go by.

♪ Look both ways when you cross the street ♪

♪ Here's the reason why

♪ There might be a car or bus

♪ Or a big truck zooming by

♪ Look both ways when you cross the street ♪

♪ Look both ways when you cross the street ♪

♪ Look both ways, don't move your feet ♪

♪ 'Til you look both ways when you cross the street ♪

That's very important.

♪ Look both ways when you cross the street ♪

♪ To the left and to the right

♪ Look both ways when you cross the street ♪

♪ Hold a grown-up's hand real tight ♪

♪ Look both ways when you cross the street ♪

♪ Look both ways when you cross the street ♪

♪ Look both ways, don't move your feet ♪

♪ 'Til you look both ways when you cross the street ♪

♪ You see a friend on the other side of the street ♪

♪ You can wave and shout "hello" ♪

- [All] Hello!

♪ Don't ever cross the street yourself ♪

♪ First get help from a grown-up you know ♪

♪ Look both ways when you cross the street ♪

♪ Look both ways when you cross the street ♪

♪ Look both ways, don't move your feet ♪

♪ 'Til you look both ways when you cross the street ♪

- Wow, BJ, your car is really neat.

- Aw, thanks!

Race cars are my favorite kinds of cars,

because they go so fast!

- That's why they're called race cars,

because they race each other.

People drive them on a racetrack

and they go around, and around, and around,

and around, and around, and around, and around!

(chuckles)

It's a good thing I'm not a race car.

I get dizzy when I go around in so many circles!

- I wish we had some toy cars to play with, Gianna.

- Me, too.

- We can take turns playing with my car.

- Mine, too!

- That's nice of you to share,

but if you each want your own car to play with,

there are some inside the caboose!

- I remember seeing some in the toy box!

Come on!

(all clamoring excitedly)

- [Barney] There are all kinds of cars in here.

- [BJ] In the toy box, right?

- [Barney] That's right!

- [BJ] I'll put this here.

You see them? - Can you find it?

- I know they're in here somewhere.

- You'll find them.

- Here's one!

- Cool, a taxi!

I've been in a taxi before!

- If you want to go somewhere,

you can pay a taxi driver to take you there.

- That's a bus!

- It's a city bus!

It takes people places, too.

- And a bus holds lots of people.

After you get on, you put money in the coin box

and ride the bus to wherever you want to go!

Sometimes it can be a bumpy ride!

- [BJ] That sounds like fun!

- The other day, I rode in a city bus with my grandmother.

- Did you have a good time?

- Uh-huh!

- What was it like?

- It's fun.

After you put the money in the coin box,

we rode all over town.

- Cool! - Wow!

- I sat by the window.

The seats were so high that I could see

everything around us.

- Every morning, the school bus picks me up

and takes me to school, but I don't have to

pay to ride the school bus.

- There are all kinds of buses,

and all sorts of people ride on them.

- They do?

- Sure!

Come on over to the computer and I'll show you!

- [All] Okay!

- I'll turn it on for you, Barney.

- Oh, thank you, Kami!

City buses can take you all around town.

- That's like the one I rode with my grandma!

(keyboard clicking)

- [Barney] School buses take kids to school in the morning,

and then bring them home in the afternoon.

- [Mario] That's like my school bus!

(keyboard clicking)

- [Barney] In England, they have buses with seats

on the bottom and seats on the top of the bus!

- [BJ] Cool!

You could see everything from up there!

- [Barney] You're right!

- [Gianna] Yeah, you could!

(keyboard clicking)

- [Barney] And in lots of places,

people decorate their buses with all kinds of bright colors!

- [BJ] Check it out! (kids clamoring excitedly)

- I wish we could ride on a bus like that.

- Hey, I've got a great idea!

Come on and I'll show you!

- Okay!

- Yeah, Mario always has good ideas!

- He does!

Here we come!

- Come on, I'll show you!

Mr. Boyd said we could use these boxes.

Let's make our own bus!

- Yeah! - Cool!

- I think that's a stupendous idea!

- Look, maybe we could put windows here!

- [Barney] That's a good idea.

- [Gianna] What can we make out of this?

- [Kami] Headlights!

- Your bus is coming along very nicely.

- With all of us working together,

we'll finish it in no time!

- [Barney] I think you're right, Mario.

- [BJ] Everybody is helping!

- They are!

♪ The more we work together, together, together ♪

♪ The more we work together the happier we'll be ♪

♪ 'Cause your friends are my friends ♪

♪ And my friends are your friends ♪

♪ The more we work together the happier we'll be ♪

(happy music)

- Hey, Barney!

Check out my windshield wipers!

- Very nice, BJ!

They'll keep the windshield very clean.

And what do you have, Kami?

- This is going to be the steering wheel.

- That's a very important part of the bus!

- Right, that's what makes it turn!

- Right.

And what are you making, Gianna?

- It's a box to put money in,

because you have to pay to ride the bus!

- You've thought of everything!

Your bus is almost finished.

- You're right.

♪ The more we work together, together, together ♪


♪ The more we work together the happier we'll be ♪

♪ 'Cause your friends are my friends ♪

♪ And my friends are your friends ♪

♪ The more we work together, the happier we'll be ♪

- [Barney] Now that is what I call one beautiful bus!

- Yeah, this is the coolest bus we've ever made!

Okay, it's the only bus we've ever made,

but it's still the coolest!

(all laughing and agreeing)

- Let's take it for a drive!

- Who's going to be the bus driver?

- We can take turns!

- Oh, can I be the bus driver first, please?

- Sure, yeah!

- Thanks!

- Well, you can't be a bus driver

without a bus driver's hat!

(kids exclaiming in awe)

- Thanks, Barney! - [Barney] You're welcome.

- Now let's get going!

- [All] Okay!

- Here's my money.

- Mine, too.

- Is everybody ready?

- [Gianna] Yeah! (horn honking)

- Oh wow, it really works!

Then here we go!

- [Barney] Okay, bye, then!

Have a good trip! - See you later!

- Now all they need are some fun places to go.

- Oh, yeah!

- Wow look, it's a library!

- Welcome to the library!

Come and take a look!

You've come to the right place for a magazine or a book!

- You can sit and read in here,

let your imagination roam,

and if you don't get finished,

oh, you can take it home!

(kids laughing) - Very good!

- The library is one of my favorite places

in the whole world!

- I thought that you would have read all the books

in the library by now, Mario!

- Not yet, but I'm working on it.

(clears throat)

- Well, there are plenty of books to choose from.

What were you looking for, sir?

- Do you have a book about cars?

- I'm sure we have one here somewhere.

- The library has books about almost everything!

- Sure, thanks!

Time to go, everyone!

You're all welcome here any time!

We're so glad you came.

When we're finished washing it,

- We'll wash it, and we'll scrub it,

and we'll dry it when we're through.

And when you drive away,

your car will look brand new!

(all laughing)

- But we just made our bus.

It doesn't need to be washed yet!

- Yeah! - It doesn't!

- I guess you're right.

- It's Jackson!

- [Barney] Hi there, Jackson!

and let's wash the car!
