Plot
While having a fun filled day with counting, Barney and the kids decide to have a counting party inside the caboose. They get started on decorating inside the caboose and sending out invitations. While they wait for all of their friends to get there, Barney tells the viewers about the time when Baby Bop learned to count. Soon after Barney tells the story, Baby Bop, BJ, and Riff join them. They jump right in to play some number games. Then they are also joined with some friends. And while having fun, the kids learn an important lesson — you can't go wrong when you have friends to count on!

Trivia
- This video marked:
- The first home video to feature the season fourteen version of the "Barney Theme Song". As such, this video was released first before that season began airing on television a month later.
- The final video in production order where Barney does not turn back into a plush doll at the end, not counting Best Fairy Tales which was originally produced a few years back before its release was ultimately delayed.
- The final video to be released before the television series' conclusion.
- After this, only subsequent videos would soon be released with some containing new content and some containing episodes from the previous seasons.
- This video uses blue colored vertical borders showcasing numbers on them for flashbacks of some episode clips being presented in its original 4:3 aspect ratio when originally aired on television as the new content for this video was presented in its 16:9 widescreen format since season thirteen. These would later be seen in I Can Do It! using different colored borders showcasing purple and green spots for different episode clips.
Characters
- This video marked:
- The final appearances of Natalia and Grace, and the only time they appeared together.
- The only time Natalia appeared without Joshua, not counting the featurette "Spanish Sing-Alongs" which was included as a special feature on the video release of Let's Go on Vacation.
- The final time BJ is performed by Kyle Nelson.
- Jerad Harris, who plays Riff, would eventually take over the position starting in I Can Do It!.
- The final video appearance of Riff, not counting any of the other videos that were released later during certain years since those contained episodes from the previous seasons. However, he would also be credited alongside his voice and costume actors for a few subsequent video releases containing new material despite not making any appearances in each one except for some flashbacks.
- However, Riff would also appear in Barney Live in Concert - Birthday Bash! as well as a few international stage shows during the later years after the television series ended.
Goofs
- Katherine Pully's name was misspelled as Katherine Pulley during the end credits.
