00:00Grandma, read us a story.
00:05Ah, a story about...
00:07Just look what he's doing.
00:10Today's story is called...
00:14So did I.
00:25Here we are at the playground, Barney.
00:27Oh, boy. Let's go see what the other kids are doing.
00:31Okay, Barney.
00:41Over there, look.
00:43Oh, that's a pretty red one.
00:51Look, there's another one over there.
00:54I see it. It's a little brown one.
00:57Hi, Min.
00:59Hi, Sean. What are you doing?
01:01We're bird watching.
01:03It's fun. We just listen for our bird.
01:06And then we try to see it with our pretend binoculars.
01:10Can I look, too?
01:11Sure. I'll share my binoculars.
01:14Thanks.
01:15See? The bird is right up there.
01:17Oh, now I see it.
01:22It flew away.
01:23It's fun to watch birds, but you have to be really fast.
01:27Because as soon as you look, they fly away.
01:30Once I saw a little bird come hop, hop, hop.
01:46So I cried, little bird, want to stop, stop, stop.
01:50And he's going to the window to say, how do you do?
01:53But he shook his little tail and far away he flew.
02:04Once I saw a little bird come hop, hop, hop.
02:07So I cried, little bird, want to stop, stop, stop.
02:11And he's going to the window to say, how do you do?
02:14But he shook his little tail and far away he flew.
02:18So shook his little tail.
02:21Hi, everybody.
02:23Hi.
02:24Oh, just look at all my fine feathered friends.
02:33Once I saw a little bird come hop, hop, hop.
02:36So I cried, little bird, won't you stop, stop, stop.
02:40And was going to the window to say, how do you do?
02:43But he shook his little tail and far away he flew.
02:51Oh, it's fun to pretend to be a bird.
02:58It's fun to go bird watching, too.
03:00Oh, bird watching.
03:02Well, how do you do that?
03:04We listen for a whistle.
03:07And we look for a bird with our binoculars.
03:10There it is.
03:11Oh, oh, oh, what does it look like?
03:14It has a white tummy and black wings.
03:17And it has a red head.
03:19Like me.
03:20What kind of bird was that?
03:24I'm not sure.
03:26But the sound was coming from over there.
03:31Wait.
03:32I see it.
03:34And it's a very strange bird.
03:36Oh?
03:36Yeah.
03:37It's bright yellow.
03:39With purple spots.
03:41And a bright green tummy.
03:43And, uh, big red tennis shoes.
03:49Big red tennis shoes?
03:52Yes.
03:53They're tennis shoes.
03:54And they're big and red.
03:55That's not a bird.
03:58It's BJ.
04:00Hi, everybody.
04:02Hi, Barney.
04:03Hi, BJ.
04:04How you doing?
04:04What are you doing on the tree stump, BJ?
04:11I'll come down and show you.
04:13Look out below.
04:15Okay.
04:17Wait until I show you what I found.
04:19It's so exciting.
04:22What is it?
04:23It looks like some sort of a note.
04:26BJ, why don't you read it for everyone?
04:28Okay.
04:29It says, an adventure in make-believe.
04:36Wow.
04:38A beautiful princess is waiting for you in the make-believe jungle.
04:46Please come and show her the way home.
04:49Oh, a princess.
04:51Oh, my.
04:52Oh, this is really exciting.
04:55There's just one problem.
04:56I don't know where the make-believe jungle is.
05:01That's why I climbed up on the tree stump.
05:03I thought maybe I could see it from up there.
05:06Well, maybe we can see it from up there.
05:10Come on.
05:11Let's look.
05:11Okay.
05:12All right.
05:14Good idea.
05:16But you can't find the make-believe jungle just by using your eyes.
05:22You can't?
05:23Nope.
05:24Because the make-believe jungle is right here in this playground.
05:30What?
05:30This?
05:31And you can only see it by using your imagination.
05:36You mean by pretending?
05:38That's right.
05:40I don't know.
05:42It just looks like a playground to me.
05:44Oh, but if you use your imagination, anything can happen.
05:50Just imagine, just imagine, just imagine, just imagine all the things that we could be.
06:06Imagine all the places we could go.
06:13Imagination's fun for you and me.
06:24We could go to the moon in a great big balloon.
06:29Build a castle by playing pretend.
06:32We might even explore with a big dinosaur or make rainbows that never end.
06:40Just imagine, just imagine, just imagine, just imagine all the things that we could be.
06:55Imagine all the places we could go and see.
07:02Imagination's fun for you and me.
07:09We can go anywhere, we can be anyone.
07:15We can do it quite easily, too.
07:20We just play, let's pretend, and we know in the end that it's so much fun to do.
07:29Just imagine, just imagine, just imagine all the things that we could be.
07:40Imagine all the places we could go and see.
07:52Imagination's fun for you and me.
08:01Imagination's fun for you and me.
08:08Oh, okay.
08:09Okay, so if I imagine that this playground is the make-believe jungle, we can go find the princess, right?
08:18Right.
08:19Okay, here I go.
08:22Oh, come on, jungle.
08:30Awfully.
08:32What's the matter, BJ?
08:34I don't think I can make believe that our playground is a jungle.
08:39I guess I still need a bigger imagination.
08:45I know.
08:46We can help BJ practice using his imagination.
08:49You can?
08:51Sure.
08:51That's us too.
08:54Pin this idea.
08:55Let's go into the classroom.
08:57There are lots of ways to practice using imagination in there.
09:02Yes, go.
09:04This is great.
09:06That would be a lot of fun.
09:07After you.
09:08After you.
09:09Thanks for having me.
09:09Come on, BJ.
09:13Don't go away, princess.
09:15I'll come back and save you.
09:17I promise.
09:19Ha!
09:23This is going to be such fun.
09:26We can stretch your imagination by pretending lots of things.
09:31Like what?
09:32Well, we can pretend that we're kangaroos.
09:36Oh, sure.
09:38All right.
09:39Or we can pretend that we're astronauts flying in a real rocket to the moon.
09:45Hey, we could pretend we're in a rocket.
09:48Oh, I wonder what David is pretending.
09:50Oh.
09:51Hmm.
09:51Let's see.
09:52BJ, you can also pretend that you're in a different place.
09:55Oh, what kind of place?
09:57Maybe some place like this.
10:01Oh.
10:02Can we pretend that we live underwater just like fish?
10:07Of course we can.
10:08Whatever you wish.
10:10If I lived under the sea, sea, sea
10:16I think it would be neat as it could be, be, be
10:20I could visit all the fish
10:21Anytime I wish
10:23If I lived under the sea
10:26I could ride on the tail of a great big whale
10:30Wow, that would be great
10:32I could count all the legs of an octopus
10:36One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight
10:39If I lived under the sea, sea, sea
10:43I think it would be neat as it could be, be, be
10:46I could visit all the fish
10:48Anytime I wish
10:50If I lived under the sea
10:53It would be so new to watch a tuna
10:57Talking with an itty-bitty snail
10:59Or to see the big fin on the back of a fish
11:03Who carries his very own tail
11:06If I lived under the sea, sea, sea
11:10I think it would be neat as it could be, be, be
11:13I could visit all the fish
11:15Anytime I wish
11:16If I lived under the sea
11:19I could visit all the fish
11:22Anytime I wish
11:23If I lived under the sea
11:26I like the sail fish
11:31I like making bubbles
11:32That was great
11:34I felt like we were really underwater
11:37Imagination lets us pretend to go lots of different places
11:43Of course, another way to use imagination
11:45Is to pretend that you're a different person
11:48So I could pretend that I'm somewhat big and brave
11:52When I go looking for the princess in the make-believe jungle
11:56You've got it
11:57I know who I'd like to pretend to be
12:00Who?
12:01Well, I could tell you
12:03But it would be more fun to show you
12:05Barney, will you please help me?
12:07Okay
12:08What?
12:09Maybe
12:10Yahoo!
12:14My name is Buckaroo Barney
12:16And I'd like to present
12:18The pretend queen of the wild west
12:21Here comes cowgirl men
12:24Cowdy partners
12:25Cowgirl men
12:26Cowdy
12:27Oh, give me a home
12:34Where the buffalo roam
12:36Where the deer and the antelope play
12:39Where seldom is heard
12:42A discouraging word
12:44And the skies are not cloudy all day
12:48Home, home on the range
12:53Where the deer and the antelope play
12:57Where seldom is heard
13:01A discouraging word
13:03And the skies are not cloudy all day
13:07Oh, say miss man
13:09How about showing us some fancy roping
13:11Okay, watch this
13:13Where the deer and the antelope play
13:20Oh, give me a home
13:23Where the buffalo roam
13:25Where the deer and the antelope play
13:29Where seldom is heard
13:32A discouraging word
13:34And the skies are not cloudy all day
13:38Home, home on the range
13:43Where the deer and the antelope play
13:47Where seldom is heard
13:50A discouraging word
13:52And the skies are not cloudy all day
13:56Yahoo
13:57Yahoo
13:58Yahoo
13:59Yahoo
14:00Yahoo
14:01Yahoo
14:02That was terrific, Barney
14:06I like pretending games
14:08So do I
14:09Using your imagination is a great way to play
14:12Let's see
14:13We pretended to go other places
14:15And pretended to be other people
14:18What else can we do with imagination?
14:20Well, we can make believe that things turn into other things
14:25How do you do that?
14:27It's easy, BJ
14:28See, I can pretend that this block is really a telephone
14:32Ring, ring
14:33Hello
14:34Oh, how are you?
14:36That's great
14:37Hey, look what I found
14:39See these big pinwheels?
14:40Uh-huh
14:41What if we pretended they're airplane propellers?
14:43Meow
14:45The pinwheels could be like the propeller
14:48On a real airplane
14:50Uh-huh
14:51Oh, wow
14:52I'd really like to pretend to fly an airplane
14:55Well, then it's time to vote
14:57How many want to pretend to fly in an airplane?
15:00Oh, me
15:01Oh, me
15:02Oh, me
15:03That's one
15:04Two
15:05Three
15:06Yes
15:07Four
15:08And
15:09Five
15:10That's everybody
15:11Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy
15:13Come on everybody, get on board the airplane
15:16All right
15:18This is the airport control tower calling Captain BJ
15:21Are you ready to take off?
15:23Ready to take off
15:30And here we go
15:32Boo
15:36Oh, we are flying in an airplane
15:41Looking out the window
15:42Watching the clouds go by
15:45Flying in an airplane
15:47Looking out the window
15:48What's so very hard?
15:55Looking out the window
15:57can see the wings. Down below, we see other things. Like little tiny buildings and cars
16:05so small. It makes me feel like I'm really tall. Oh, we are flying in an airplane, looking
16:16out the window, watching the clouds go by. Flying in an airplane, looking out the window,
16:22go up so very high. Pretending I'm the pilot is a lot of fun. I think when I grow up, I
16:34really might be one. But for now, I'm just enjoying being in this plane, safe from the snow
16:42and from the rain. Oh, we are flying in an airplane, looking out the window, watching
16:51the clouds go by. Flying in an airplane, looking out the window, up so very high. Yes, we
16:59are flying in an airplane, looking out the window, watching the clouds go by. Flying in an airplane,
17:07looking out the window, up so very high. Coming in for a landing. Someday I bet I really will
17:19fly an airplane. Oh, I bet you will. Well, B.J., we've done lots of fun pretending. Now,
17:26are you ready to use your imagination and look for the make-believe jungle? I sure am. Okay.
17:34I'm pretending that our playground is a make-believe jungle. A jungle with birds and animals. And I see it.
17:49I did it. I did it. I did it. I did it. I did it. And look at us. Wow. You've got a big imagination, B.J.
18:04I sure do. Now, are you ready to look for the beautiful princess? I'm ready. Follow me, everybody. Okay.
18:11Okay. We're going on a jungle adventure to see what we can see. There's a lion and a tiger and a great big monkey swinging on the branch of a tree. It looks like a chimpanzee.
18:30Oh, here in the jungle you can hear the lions roar. Roar! Rinosaurus and tigers and so much more. Hear the snakes hissing in the grass below. See the silly monkeys putting on a show. The jungle is the place to go.
18:52Oh, oh, princess! Princess! Where are you, princess? Princess! We're going on a jungle adventure to see what we can see. There's a great big elephant taking a bath, getting clean as he can be. I hope he doesn't step on me.
19:15Oh, here in the jungle you can hear the lions roar. Roar! Rinosaurus and tigers and so much more. Hear the snakes hissing in the grass below. See the silly monkeys putting on a show. The jungle is the place to go.
19:37Oh, princess! Princess! Princess! We're going on a jungle adventure to see what we can see.
19:40Oh, here in the jungle you can hear the lions roar. Roar! Rinosaurus and tigers and so much more. Hear the snakes hissing in the grass below. See the silly monkeys putting on a show. The jungle is the place to go.
20:00Oh, here in the jungle you can see. Princess! Princess! Princess! We're trying to find you. Princess!
20:07Oh, my! I just know that the princess must be around here somewhere.
20:13Oh, princess! Where are you?
20:17Hey! Look over there!
20:22Huh?
20:23It's the princess. And I'm going to be big and brave and save her. Come on.
20:29Don't be afraid, princess. I've come to show you the way home.
20:35Hi, B.J. Hi, everybody!
20:38Baby Mera!
20:40It's Sissy!
20:42Uh-uh! I'm Princess Baby Bop. I play make-believe.
20:47Just like us!
20:48Yeah!
20:49Wait a minute. Baby Bop doesn't know how to write, so who wrote the note about an adventure in make-believe?
20:57Oh, uh-uh-uh!
21:01Barney?
21:03Well, I imagined that this would be a lot of fun.
21:09It was fun, yeah.
21:10Yeah, I guess so.
21:12What's the matter, B.J.?
21:14Well, if this was all just a game of pretend, then I didn't really have to help the princess find her way home.
21:21Oh, yes, you did! I can't walk home without my big, brave brother!
21:27Aw!
21:28Aw!
21:29Big and brave? Me? Really?
21:31Yeah!
21:32Aw! Thanks, Sissy!
21:34Aw!
21:35I never imagined we'd be doing all this today!
21:38Oh, that's the wonderful thing about imagination. It's full of surprises!
21:44Oh!
21:45Oh!
21:46Yeah!
21:47Hi, baby!
21:48Aw!
21:49Aw!
21:50Just imagine, just imagine, just imagine all the things that we could be. Imagine all the places we could go and see. Imagination's fun for you and me.
22:14We can go anywhere, we can be anyone. We can do it quite easily soon. We just play let's pretend and we know in the end that it's so much fun to do.
22:30Just imagine, just imagine, just imagine all the things that we could be. Imagine all the places we could go and see. Imagination's fun for you and me.
22:55Oh!
22:56Okay, Princess. I think it's time for us to be going home now.
23:07Oh! I like it when you call me Princess!
23:10Bye, Barney! Bye, guys! Thanks for the fun day!
23:15Oh, sure!
23:16Bye!
23:17Bye!
23:18Bye!
23:19Bye!
23:20Bye!
23:21Bye!
23:22Bye!
23:23Bye!
23:25I think BJ and Baby Bop had a really special day!
23:28I think so, did!
23:29I didn't like it!
23:30Oh, they sure did!
23:31Because everyday can be special if you share your imagination with people you love!
23:37I love you, you love me
23:48We're a happy family
23:53With a great big hug and a kiss from me to you
23:58Won't you say you love me too?
