Chapter 5: There's Snow Place Like Home

"Wow Barney! That was really fun!" Lila giggled.

"That was a lot of fun, wasn't it, BJ?" Barney asked, but there was no answer.

"Hey, where did Jay go?" Peppermint Patty asked.

"I think I know. Look at the jars." Tosha smiled, pointing to them. "Spring, summer, fall, but there's no winter."

"And no BJ!" Lucy realized.

"Hey guys! Check it out!" BJ shouted from outside.

"Oh I have a feeling things are about to get pretty cold around here!" Barney chuckled.

"I hope so! Winter is my favorite season!" Lucy smiled as they headed out to the porch.

"Hey, how about a little snow? On your marks, get set, let's go!" BJ smiled, opening the winter jar, and the landscape transformed into a winter wonderland.

"WHOA!" the kids exclaimed happily.

"Barney, I like your earmuffs." Lila smiled.

"What?" Barney asked, not hearing anything.

"I said I like your earmuffs." Lila replied.

"SORRY! CAN'T HEAR YOU! I'M WEARING EARMUFFS!" Barney replied before giggling.

"Oh Barney..." the rest of the kids said.

"LOOK!" Schroeder pointed.

"IT'S STARTING TO SNOW!" Shawn said.

"And look at the playground! It's so beautiful!" Rebecca added. "LET'S GO!"

"Okay!" Barney chuckled as they began the walk to the playground.

Sally looked in the trees and saw Scooter "Don't worry, your new house is still in the works." Sally winked before turning to Linus "I think I like the jars even more than Four Seasons Day!"

"Really?" Linus asked.

"I said I think." Sally reminded.

Lila looked over. "Patty, don't your toes get cold?" she asked.

Peppermint Patty shrugged. "Not really. I love the snow!"

"And I can't believe it! It's really winter!" BJ added.

"Let's make a snowman!" Tosha suggested to Lucy.

Lucy smiled. "Great thinking. Charlie Brown, can you model?"

"I'm so excited! Winter's great! Winter's incredible!" BJ rambled. "It's... it's..."

"Wonderful?" Barney chimed in.

"Yeah!" the kids and BJ happily exclaimed.

Barney:

Winter's wonderful; it's so beautiful.

The air is cold and clear.

Snow is sparkling,

Trees are glistening,

It's that time of year.

Tosha and Lucy:

I love to see the icicles,

Shawn and Schroeder:

The great big snowflakes, too.

Barney, BJ, Barney's Friends, and Peanuts Gang:

'Cause it's the wonderful season

Full of special things to do

"Aw guys, I just love winter!" BJ smiled.

Maria and Lila:

Wearing hats and coats and scarves,

Each hand has got a glove.

Rebecca and Heather:

All our friends and family too,

Are filled with extra love.

BJ and Peppermint Patty:

I love to see the icicles,

The great big snowflakes, too.

Barney:

'Cause it's the wonderful season

Full of special things to do.

Barney, BJ, Barney's Friends, and Peanuts Gang:

'Cause it's the wonderful season

Full of special things to do.

Tosha, Lucy, Lila, Maria, and Rebecca were building their snowman as Charlie Brown modeled. "There! That's perfect!" Lucy smiled. "Thank you, Charlie Brown. You were a good model."

"Uh, can I move now?" he asked.

"Sure." Tosha said.

"Thanks." Charlie Brown replied.

"Hey guys, maybe I couldn't find a football but..." BJ began. "Bring 'em out, Pepper!"

"We can definitely find snowballs!" Peppermint Patty explained, carrying a basket of snowballs. "Watch!" and she and BJ threw some snowballs.

"I can throw a snowball farther than that." Shawn bragged as Linus watched on. "Watch!"

"OUTSTANDING!" BJ exclaimed.

Linus shrugged and put a snowball in his blanket before swinging it around and letting go. BJ, Peppermint Patty and Shawn stood and watched, speechless.

"YOU THINK YOU'RE SO SMART, WITH THAT BLANKET!" Lucy commented. "But WHAT are you gonna do with it WHEN you grow up?"

"Maybe I'll turn it into a sport coat." Linus responded, smugly.

Barney then approached the girls and their snowman. "Say, who's your new friend?" Barney asked.

"Our snowman is named Freddy Frostfellow!" Lucy smiled proudly.

"Why can't we just name him Frosty?" Lila asked.

"It's been done before." Tosha and Sally answered.

"Well, it's good to meet you, Mr. Frostfellow." Barney smiled.

"Watch my Super Duper Dipsy Doo snowball!" BJ smiled, throwing it, knocking off Mr. Frostfellow's hat.

"Watch it, you blockdino!" Lucy argued.

"Uh oh! Sorry I knocked off your hat Mr. Frostfellow." BJ said.

"That's OK, BJ." Heather impersonated the snowman, startling BJ for a bit. "Just try to be a bit more careful next time, OK?"

"Uh, OK, sure." BJ said, confused while Heather giggled.

"Oh BJ..." Heather cooed, poking her head out.

"IT'S YOU, HEATHER!" BJ laughed.

"I got you good!" Heather remarked.

"Hey! Would anyone like to do a little sledding?" Lila realized.

"Uh, Lila, where can we ride sleds around here?" Tosha wondered.

Lila smiled "Never underestimate Barney Magic." And she winked at Lucy.

"I see you've been paying attention." Lucy smirked.

"Please, Barney?" Lila asked.

"Sledding sounds like a super dee duper idea, Lila. Everyone, follow me!" Barney motioned.

"You heard the dinosaur!" Sally exclaimed.


They were now on top of a very large hill. "WHOA!" the kids exclaimed happily.

"I don't know where this hill came from, but it looks terrific!" Peppermint Patty smiled.

"Our imaginations are bigger than expected!" Schroeder smiled.

"Is everybody ready?" Barney asked joyfully.

"YES!" the kids exclaimed happily.

"Then it's one for the money, two for the show, three to get ready, cause here we go!" Barney recited as the kids and Snoopy hopped on a very large sled and began down the hill.

Barney's Friends and Peanuts Gang:

Sledding, sledding.

Down the hill we fly.

Hold on tight with all your might

As trees go racing by.

"WHOO HOO!" Snoopy cheered as BJ raced right beside them in his own sled.

BJ:

Barney, Barney,

We're cruising right along.

It's great to sled, and have such fun,

And even sing a song.

"WHOA! Is that Barney a snowboard?" Charlie Brown asked as they spotted their dinosaur friend.

"Stranger things happen everyday." Linus commented with a smile.

Barney:

Sledding, sledding.

We're really zooming fast!

The wind in our face it's like a race.

We're having such a blast!

Sledding, sledding.

Come on, and take a ride!

Hold on tight with all your might

As we go racing by.

Barney, BJ, Barney's Friends, and Peanuts Gang:

Hold on tight with all your might

As we go racing by!
