Title card

First experiences in life can be scary for anyone. The first day of school, the first ride on an airplane and the first time riding a bicycle are just a few of the many childhood "firsts" that can make any child anxious. In this charming video, Barney gently guides his new friend, Becky, through these new experiences. Barney, as well as some other famous friends, help Becky learn how new experiences can be fun, especially when shared with good friends. It features clips from the movie, Barney's Great Adventure.
