00:00Storytime! Now, what did you do today? Today's story is called, It All Happened When I Was Just Years Old.
00:30Friends are special, so important, they make the world go round.
00:49We like helping one another in school or on the playground.
00:55Friends are there to help each other when one is feeling sad.
01:00Being friends is very special, be a friend and you'll be glad.
01:19Friends are special, so important, they make the world go round.
01:25We like helping one another in school or on the playground.
01:31Friends are there to help each other when one is feeling sad.
01:36Being friends is very special, be a friend and you'll be glad.
02:07What did the letter say to make you so happy?
02:10Mi fiesta de cumpleaños fue maravillosa. Me hubiera gustado que hubieras venido.
02:17I'm sorry, it's written in Spanish. He told me about his birthday party last week. He had lots of fun and wished I could have been there.
02:25How did you learn Spanish?
02:28Well, my family came from Mexico where people speak Spanish. Here's a song I know in both Spanish and English.
02:35It's about counting ten amigos. Amigos is the Spanish word for friend.
02:42One and two and three good friends. Four and five and six good friends.
02:47Seven, eight and nine good friends. Ten good friends are we.
02:52Uno, dos, tres amigos. Cuatro, cinco, seis amigos. Siete, ocho, nueve amigos. Diez amigos son.
03:02Now you sing it with me in Spanish.
03:07Uno, dos, tres amigos. Cuatro, cinco, seis amigos. Siete, ocho, nueve amigos. Diez amigos son.
03:23So you see, it's no problem if my grandfather writes to me in Spanish.
03:27I think it would be neat to speak two languages.
03:30Look, he even sent a picture of himself. It was taken at the party.
03:35I really miss my grandfather. I wish I could have been there to give him a great big hug and wish him happy birthday.
03:42Then why don't we do the next best thing?
03:44What's that, Barney?
03:45Let's have our own fiesta right here.
03:48That's a great idea.
03:50Barney, what's a fiesta?
03:54Fiesta is the Spanish word for party.
03:57Party, oh boy. Why don't we have it in the classroom?
04:01Sure. Let's go.
04:03Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy.
04:08Oh boy, oh boy. This is going to be so much fun.
04:12I love parties.
04:15Where do we start?
04:16Well, every party should have decorations. What does a Mexican fiesta look like?
04:21Oh, something like this.
04:26Gosh, Barney, this really looks neat.
04:29But what do people do at a Mexican fiesta?
04:31Well, it's just like any party, Sean. You have lots of fun.
04:39A fiesta is a great big party.
04:42Always lots of fun.
04:44With food and fun and games and singing.
04:48It's for everyone.
04:50Let's have a fiesta, fiesta.
04:54We will have the best of food and fun and games and singing, too.
05:02We see the colors and the pretty decorations
05:07of a very special nation.
05:10It's a party for me and you.
05:15A fiesta is a great big party.
05:18Always lots of fun.
05:21With food and fun and games and singing.
05:24It's for everyone.
05:26Let's have a fiesta, fiesta.
05:30We will have the best of food and fun and games and singing, too.
05:38We see the colors and the pretty decorations
05:43of a very special nation.
05:46It's a party for me and you.
05:53So, fiesta is a party where people can sing and dance.
05:57And play music.
05:58I have my guitar.
05:59And we have these instruments, too.
06:03Great.
06:05I found some maracas.
06:07And here's some for you to play, Barney.
06:09Thanks, Derek.
06:14I'll play these rhythm sticks.
06:18Oh, the Spanish name for them is claves, Shawn.
06:22Claves.
06:23This looks like a fish, Barney.
06:25What is it?
06:26Oh, you'll love playing that, man.
06:28It's called a guiro.
06:30When you rub the stick over its bumps, you make fun sounds.
06:33Try it.
06:36I like this.
06:38Now, can you show me different ways to play your instruments?
06:42You can play them fast.
06:44Or slow.
06:48We can play loudly.
06:51Or more quietly.
06:54Oh, it sounds like we're ready to play some fiesta music.
07:00I am a fine musician.
07:02That's what people say.
07:04He is a fine musician.
07:06That's what people say.
07:08I play upon maracas.
07:10He plays upon maracas.
07:17I am a fine musician.
07:19That's what people say.
07:21She is a fine musician.
07:23That's what people say.
07:25I play my guitar.
07:27She plays her guitar.
07:31I am a fine musician.
07:33That's what people say.
07:35She is a fine musician.
07:37That's what people say.
07:39I play upon my guiro.
07:41She plays upon her guiro.
07:49We all are fine musicians.
07:51That's what people say.
07:53We all are fine musicians.
07:55That's what people say.
07:57We all are fine musicians.
07:59That's what people say.
08:01We play fiesta instruments.
08:03We play fiesta instruments.
08:08We all are fine musicians.
08:10That's what people say.
08:16You know, in his letter, my grand boss said
08:18when everyone played instruments at his party,
08:20they all danced.
08:22Then in our fiesta, we should have dancing.
08:24Dancing.
08:27I have an idea for a super duper surprise.
08:29A surprise?
08:31I love surprises.
08:33What is it?
08:35Just close your eyes really tight
08:37and imagine a special visitor from Mexico.
08:45I don't get it, Barney.
08:47Nothing's changed.
08:49Where's our surprise visitor?
08:51I think I hear her now.
08:53Somebody's at the door.
08:55Let's go see who it is.
08:57Okay, come on.
09:01Buenos dias, Barney.
09:03It's good to see you again.
09:05Buenos dias, Rebecca.
09:07It's nice to see you, too.
09:09I'd like you all to meet my good friend,
09:11Senorita Rebecca Garcia.
09:13Rebecca, meet Lucy,
09:15Min, Derek,
09:17and Shawn.
09:19Rebecca knows lots of Mexican folk dances,
09:21just like the ones danced
09:23at your grandfather's party, Lucy.
09:25Oh, boy, now a party could really be a fiesta.
09:27Will you dance for us, Senorita Garcia?
09:29Por favor?
09:31Oh, I'd love to.
09:33I'll do a dance called Los Machetes.
09:35Oh, boy, great.
09:37Right this way.
09:53Oooh!
10:01Ooooh!
10:03Ooh!
10:05Help.
10:13Yes, yes, yes!
10:17Really!
10:19Yes!
10:21♪♪♪
10:31♪♪♪
10:41♪♪♪
10:43Yay!
10:44Oh, boy!
10:45That was stu-pendous, Rebecca!
10:48Thank you!
10:49I love dancing.
10:50Senorita Garcia, would you show us another?
10:53I'll do better than that.
10:54I'll teach you a dance today.
10:56Oh, goody!
10:57That's gonna be fun!
10:58Alright!
10:59I'm gonna like it.
11:00The dance goes with a song called a la derecha,
11:03which means to the right in Spanish.
11:05I know that song!
11:06Good!
11:07Then you can sing the song in English for everyone else.
11:10Okay.
11:11Barney, would you be my partner?
11:13My partner?
11:15You bet!
11:18A la derecha
11:19To the right
11:21Two steps to the left
11:23A la derecha
11:24To the right
11:26Two steps going back
11:28Junto con tu compañero
11:31Together we will do a half turn
11:33Junto con tu compañero
11:36Together we will do a half turn
11:38A la derecha
11:39To the right
11:41Two steps to the front
11:43A la derecha
11:44To the right
11:46Two steps going back
11:52That was fun!
11:53That was neat!
11:54Thanks for inviting me to your fiesta, everyone.
11:57You're welcome, Rebecca.
11:58Thanks for dancing with us.
12:00It was my pleasure.
12:02I hope to see you again soon.
12:04Goodbye, amigos.
12:06Goodbye, friends.
12:07Bye-bye!
12:08Goodbye! Adios!
12:09She sure is a good dancer.
12:11I know. She was great.
12:13Lucy, I'm getting hungry.
12:15What kind of food do they eat at a fiesta?
12:17Come over to the kitchen and I'll show you.
12:19Okay.
12:20Boy, I love Mexican food.
12:23First, we'll make tortillas.
12:25They're a flat bread we eat with Mexican food.
12:28Everyone take one of these dough balls in your hand
12:30and pat them into flat circles.
12:32This sounds like fun.
12:34Patty cake, patty cake, baker's man
12:37We're making tortillas just as fast as we can
12:40We roll it and pat it and mark it with a T
12:43Cause we're making tortillas for you and me
12:49Oh, we're having lots of fun making special bread
12:52We're rolling it oh so fast
12:55And when you make your own tortillas
12:58You've got to pat, pat, pat, pat, pat
13:01When we're done we can wrap it around other foods
13:04That's a real good idea
13:07It's a special kind of bread that we're making ourselves
13:10It's known as a tortilla
13:13Oh, we're having lots of fun making special bread
13:16We're rolling it oh so flat
13:19And when you make your own tortillas
13:22You've got to pat, pat, pat, pat, pat
13:28Oh, when you put other food inside it
13:31You could make a taco or chalupa
13:34But it all starts out with one tortilla
13:37And making it is super duper!
13:40Oh, we're having lots of fun making special bread
13:43We're rolling it oh so flat
13:46And when you make your own tortillas
13:49You've got to pat, pat, pat, pat, pat
13:52And when you make your own tortillas
13:55You've got to pat, pat, pat, pat, pat
13:58This is fun!
14:00Pat, pat, pat
14:02Making tortillas was fun
14:04But how will we cook them?
14:06I think I can help
14:08Oh, oh, oh!
14:10Wow!
14:12We have our makings for chalupas here
14:15Chalupas?
14:16Uh-huh, they're one of my favorite Mexican foods
14:19Look, I'll show you how to make one
14:21Oh, goody!
14:23First, you spread some beans on the tortilla
14:30Look at it
14:32This is going to be good
14:38Then, add a little lettuce
14:42Veggies? Oh, boy!
14:45And some tomatoes
14:47I do love tomatoes!
14:50And a bit of onion
14:54And there you have it, a yummy chalupa
14:57Oh, boy!
14:59This looks delicious
15:01What is this, Lucy?
15:03Yeah, you didn't put any on your chalupa
15:05That's a hot sauce called salsa
15:07It tastes very hot and spicy
15:09Oh, I think I'll try some
15:11Are you sure, Barney? It's pretty hot
15:13Sure, I like to try everything
15:16Okay, I'll put some on one of these chips
15:18They look like they're just your size
15:20Oh, great!
15:24Oh, thank you
15:29Oh, thank you
15:44Oh, that hot sauce tasted just right
15:47Oh, Barney!
15:49Okay, now that you all know how
15:51You can all make your own chalupa
15:53Just the way you like it
15:55Oh, great!
15:57Thank you
16:02Yummy!
16:04Oh, I love Mexican food
16:07These Mexican sweet rolls make a great dessert, Lucy
16:10What did you say they were called?
16:12They're called pan dulce, and there's just one left
16:15No, thank you, I'm full
16:17Now that we're finished eating, let's play some games
16:20But what if we don't play the Mexican fiesta?
16:22Well, I know a Spanish song called San Miguel's Ring
16:25It's sort of like Ring Around the Rosie
16:27Come on
16:30Well, let's all place on Miguel's ring
16:34And your box of sweet honey, please bring
16:39When you hear your own name
16:41Turn and play the burro game
16:43Lucy, it's your turn to face outside the ring
16:50Well, let's all place on Miguel's ring
16:54And your box of sweet honey, please bring
16:59When you hear your own name
17:01Turn and play the burro game
17:03Mia, it's your turn to face outside the ring
17:10Well, let's all place on Miguel's ring
17:14And your box of sweet honey, please bring
17:19When you hear your own name
17:21Turn and play the burro game
17:23Gary, it's your turn to face outside the ring
17:30Well, let's all place on Miguel's ring
17:34And your box of sweet honey, please bring
17:39When you hear your own name
17:41Turn and play the burro game
17:43Sean, it's your turn to face outside the ring
17:47Okay
17:51That was great
17:52Yeah
17:53What can we play now?
17:54How about a guessing game?
17:56Is it a riddle?
17:57No
17:58Is it a knock-knock joke?
17:59No
18:00I'll sing the song that you all know
18:02But if it's a song we know, we won't have to guess what it is
18:06You might if I sing it in Spanish
18:08See if you can tell what song this is
18:10Okay
18:12La pequeñita araña subió por la manga
18:17Vino la lluvia y se la llevó
18:22Mas salió el sol y todo lo secó
18:27Y la pequeñita araña subió, subió, subió
18:32I know, that's the itsy-bitsy spider
18:35You're right, Min
18:36Let's all sing it together in English
18:39Okay
18:42The itsy-bitsy spider went up the water spot
18:47Down came the rain and washed the spider out
18:52Out came the sun and dried up all the rain
18:57And the itsy-bitsy spider went up the spot again
19:07That was good
19:08I thought you'd all guess the itsy-bitsy spider
19:11I like pretending my fingers are spider legs
19:14Why don't we play a game where we move our whole bodies?
19:18Come on, let's hold hands and make a circle
19:20Oh, I get it
19:24Here we go, lubey-lube

20:54That was great!
20:56Hey, I've got another special game we can play.
20:58Does anyone know what a piñata is?
21:00I do! It's part of a game
21:02children play at Mexican fiestas.
21:04The piñata is made of paper
21:06and is filled with candy and surprises.
21:08You try to break it open
21:10so the treats fall out for everyone.
21:12Oh, boy, can I try it first?
21:14Sure, and there's a song we sing
21:16while we play the game.
21:18I'll teach it to you.
21:20But first...
21:24First, we need to blindfold you.
21:30Then,
21:32give you a stick
21:34and finally,
21:36spin you around a couple of times.
21:40Okay, you're ready!
21:42Go, Shawn! Try to break the piñata!
21:46Hit it, hit it, hit it
21:48Swing at the piñata
21:50Hit it one, two, three
21:52Fill the tasty candy
21:54Hit it, hit it, hit it
21:56Swing at the piñata
21:58Hit it one, two, three
22:00Spill the tasty candy
22:04Good try, Shawn.

23:26Yeah.
23:28I've never seen so much candy in one place before.
23:30Hey, this is two in one.
23:32Barney, you didn't get anything from the piñata.
23:34Here.
23:36I'll share with you.
23:38Oh, how nice of you.
23:40Now close your eyes and pick a treat.
23:42Oh, okay.

23:46Here's the bag.

23:56Thank you, Shawn.
23:58You're welcome, Barney.
24:02Happy birthday, Grandfather.
24:04Thanks, everyone.
24:06I was feeling really sad
24:08about missing my grandfather's party,
24:10but our fiesta made me feel better.
24:12That's what friends are for.
24:14Before we end our fiesta,
24:16will you sing our song in Spanish, Lucy?
24:18Sure.
24:20Great.

25:08You love me.
25:10We're best friends
25:12like friends should be.
25:14With a great big hug
25:16and a kiss
25:18from me to you.
25:20Won't you say
25:22you love
25:24me too?
25:28Go away.
25:32Go away.
25:34Oh, it was my pleasure.
25:36Now we better get ready to go.
25:38Bye, Barney.
25:40Okay, see you soon.
25:42Bye-bye.
25:44Take care.
