Oh, hi, there!

My, what's all this?

Tracy's helping me make my costume for the parade.

That's right, today's Earth Day.

There's going to be a big parade to celebrate.

But, we should probably pick up this trash.

Oh, yeah, you're right.

The parade will be fun, but really, Barney,

what is Earth Day for?

It's a time to remember how important it is

to take care of our beautiful Earth.

Oh, hi there, Maya.

Have you met Tracy and Ben?

Oh, I've seen them around.

[Children] Hi!

So, what's that you have?

Oh, seeds.

I'm getting ready to do a little spring planting.

-Oh boy, oh boy! -Oh, I see.

These are seeds of the future, you know.

[Children] Really?

Mm-hmm.

Well, this little baby has grown nice and tall.

From a small blade of grass to the tallest tree,

it all starts with a little seed.

Oh boy!

I never noticed that bird nest before.

Looks like this tree is providing a great home

-for some birds. -[birds chirping]

Oh, I better be going.

I have a few more details to organize

for today's Earth Day parade.

[Barney] Okay.

Oh, look.

I can use this to make a bird feeder.

See you later.

-Okay, bye. -Bye!

Maya's in charge of the parade?

Uh huh.

Cool, now come on, let's finish my costume.

But we're out of paper.

Oh man, and all I need is a little more.

Hey guys, guys, guys.

Come over here, quick.

-Okay, all right. -What's up BJ?

Check this out.

-Hi! -Hi guys!

[Barney] Hi, Mr. Coupland.

Guess what, guess what!

We're getting a brand new playground for the park!

Sissy, they were supposed to guess.

Oh, well, guess a new playground!

[BJ chuckles]

It is a beauty, isn't it?

-Yeah! -Yeah it is!

[Barney] Look at that!

Will the new playground go here?

Maybe, I'm not sure just yet.

If we put it here, this tree will have to be cut down.

Oh, no.

Gotta think about that.

Well, see you around.

-Okay, bye. -Bye, Mr. Coupland.

I wish they wouldn't cut down this tree.

There's a bird's nest in it.

Well somebody better tell that bird,

"This tree's gotta go!"

This is their home, BJ.

Many animals live in trees.

Like squirrels.

And frogs.

Do frogs really live in trees?

Well, some do.

Frogs can even live in the dessert, but-

[frog croaking]

[everyone laughs]

That one lives over in the meadow.

[swirl chimes]

♪ Over in the meadow in The sand in the sun ♪

♪ Lived an old mother frog And her little froggy one ♪

♪ Croak said the mother And croak said the one ♪

♪ So they croaked and they Croaked in the sand In the sun ♪

[frogs croaking]

♪ Over in the meadow In the stream so blue ♪

♪ Lived an old mother fish And her little fishes two ♪

♪ Swim, said the mother, We swim, said the two ♪

♪ So they swam and they swam In the stream so blue ♪

♪ Over in the meadow on The branch of a tree ♪

♪ Lived an old mother bird And her little birdies three ♪

♪ Sing, said the mother, We sing said the three ♪

♪ So they sang and they sang On the branch of the tree ♪

[swirl chimes]

[BJ chattering]

Animals live all around us

and the Earth gives us air to breathe, water to drink,

and food to eat.

And a great place for a new playground.

I just wish they didn't have to cut down this tree.

Ah, we got zillions of them.

There's only one tree like this.

Did I ever tell you about the one-and-only,

one-of-a-kind higgledy-piggledy pear tree?

The what a, what a, what tree?

The higgledy-piggledy pear tree!

There's only one left, in the whole world.

Would you like to hear about it?

-Oh yeah! -Yes, please!

Take a seat.

Oh boy.

Once, there was a very special tree.

It had beautiful branches and leaves

and at the very top,

a great, big, juicy higgledy-piggledy pear.

Oh, yum, sounds yummy!

Oh, it was delicious.

But when people climbed up to get it, they broke the tree.

I never heard about this tree before.

Well, not many people have.

To keep it safe, Mother Nature planted a magic garden

that grew around it 'til the higgledy-piggledy tree

was hidden deep in a rain forest.

What's a rain forest?

A place where there's so much rain,

the plants grow into a wonderful jungle.

[Children] Oh.

Oh, I wish I could see that higgy, biggy, boogie-

[children laugh]

The one-and-only, one-of-a-kind higgledy-piggledy tree.

Exactly.

They say it's pretty hard to find.

I'll bet we could do it, if we looked hard enough.

Yeah.

But how could we get to the rain forest?

We could use our imaginations and...

[swirl chimes]

[sparkles chiming]

-[birds chirping] -[birds squawking]

[Barney chuckles]

Here we are, the rain forest.

-Awesome! -Wow!

So this is a rain forest, huh?

Yes, welcome to the rain forest!

Oh, everyone, meet Mother Nature.

-Hi there! -Hi, Mother Nature!

You look like somebody I know.

I hear that a lot. [laughs]

Great galloping geraniums!

These plants look thirsty.

[thunder cracks]

And here comes the rain, right on time.

Oh, she's right.

Where did I put that umbrella?

Ker-plink.

Now, what brings you to the rain forest?

We're looking for the one-and-only,

one-of-a-kind higgledy-piggledy tree.

Oh, oh, oh, blowing begonias!

That tree's very rare, you know.

Hardly anyone knows where it is.

Oh, we can find it if we try.

Would you help us?

Well, I don't know.

Please.

Well, all right.

But you must promise to remember something.

[All] What?

Come closer.

We share this Earth with all the plants and animals.

Take care of them and they'll take care of you.

Right, got it!

Now, which way do we go?

Right down that path.

-Come on, guys! -Okay.

All right.

Oh, leaping lilies!

Somebody needs a trim.

Are you coming?

Well, no, you go on.

We'll catch up.

I knew we should have stopped and asked for directions.

We're never going to find-

[everyone gasps]

Oh!

Is that what I think it is?

It's gotta be.

The one-and-only, one-of-a-kind

higgledy-piggledy tree!

I've never seen anything like it.

'Cause there isn't anything like it, my friend.

It's the only one left in the world.

Oh, and there's the higgy-piggy pear.

Oh, just look at that thing!

Barney said it's delicious.

I gotta taste it.

We are not climbing this tree.

It might break.

-Oh, no, of course. -No one was suggesting that.

We weren't really going to do it.

Maybe if I, kind of, bump the tree it'll fall out.

I don't think that's a good idea.

[tree creaks]

Sure it is, bump it harder.

Bump it harder, okay.

-[Sissy] Yeah, Harder. -[tree creaks]

Don't hurt the tree, BJ.

Oh, Tracy, I can't hurt this tree.

See what I mean.

[tree cracks]

-[tree crashes] -[children gasp]

-Uh oh. -Oh!

BJ, you knocked it down!

Oh!

Oh man, I didn't mean to.

Maybe we can fix it.

Oh, ai, ai, ai, what should I do?

What should I do?

♪ What should I do

♪ What should I do when I Don't know what I should do ♪

[BJ muttering]

There's no way to fix this.

BJ, they're coming.

Oh, stand it up, stand it up.

[everyone groaning]

[Sissy] You're going to get in trouble.

Act natural.

Oh, you found it!

Oh hey, Barney, Mother Nature!

Isn't it awesome?

Oh yes, it's really something isn't it?

Is everything okay, BJ?

Sure.

No, it isn't.

Yes, it is.

No, it isn't.

We weren't too careful.

There was a little accident.

And I, sort of, broke

the one-and-only, one-of-a-kind higgledy-piggledy tree.

[tree crashes]

Oh!

Oh my!

I'm really, really sorry.

This was the only one.

You poor, poor thing.

Mother Nature, we are so sorry.

Is there anything we can do?

[Mother Nature sniffs]

Well,

maybe.

You see, inside the higgledy-piggledy

If we plant it, will it grow?

It will take a long time and a lot of care

but someday the seed inside this pear

will become a full-grown tree.

It's a seed of the future.

That's right, Tracy.

We can plant the seed now,

and Mother Nature will watch over it and protect it.

I certainly will.

But, you know, I can always use some help

when it comes to watching over this big, beautiful Earth.

How can we help?

Well, some ways to care for our Earth include

picking up trash and planting new plants

and protecting the animals.

I can do that.

[Ben And Sissy] Me too!

Then let's get started by planting this seed.

-All right! -Okay.

♪ Will you help protect our Earth and keep it clean ♪

♪ Yes, we will

♪ Will you help protect our Earth and keep it green ♪

♪ Yes, we will

♪ Then the time Has come to start ♪

♪ We'll begin to do our part

♪ And we'll all protect the Earth and keep it green ♪

♪ Yes, we will

♪ There are lots of different Things that we can do ♪

♪ Yes, there are

♪ There are lots of different Things that we can do ♪

♪ Let's begin to do our part

♪ And we'll all protect the Earth and keep it green ♪

♪ Yes, we will

-All right. -That was great.

Now, I get it.

We can all do something even if it's really small

'cause we can all help take care of our Earth.

That's right, BJ.

Everyone can do their part.

Mother Nature, you can count on me from now on.

-Oh yeah, me too. -Me too!

I know I can.

Well, I think we better get going now.

Bye, Mother Nature.

-Bye, Mother Nature. -Bye-bye, see ya!

-Bye. I'll see you soon. -Bye, Barney.

Okay. Keep up the good work.

See ya later.

And , .

The perfect place to put a new playground right here.

Mr. Coupland, there must be some way

that we can save this tree.

It would be a shame to lose it.

Yeah.

Well, maybe we can save it.

We've got a great playground right there.

Why do we need one here?

Yeah, maybe there's a better place for a new playground?

Well, any suggestions?

Well, there's a nice open spot

on the other side of the pond.

Well, that just might work.

[everyone cheers]

I never saw kids so happy about moving a playground, Barney.

Oh, I think they're most of all happy

that the tree can stay.

Yeah, nothing's going to happen to this guy

while old BJ is around!

Right, it's the future, you know.

That's right, Tracy.

Now, where's that open spot?

Come on, I'll show you.

Oh, I want to go too.

-Bye, thank you! -Bye, see you later!

See you soon.

All right, everyone, it's time for the Earth Day parade.

Get your costumes.

We can celebrate saving this tree.

[Ben and Tracy] Yeah!

Oh, we never finished my costume.

Well, here, we can use this on it.

Okay, let's give it a try.

Okay, come on, let's go.

Oh boy!

What do you think?

-I like that. -Oh, it's awesome.

Okay, let's give it a try.
