Plot
GAMES
When Barney arrives to play with his friends, Derek plays "alphabet fun"
by spelling a "mystery word" a letter at at time. The group plays games
and sings songs related to each letter of the mystery word. Rhyming
ANIME
words, making alphabet soup, walking through the alphabet, and seeing
how many letters they can make with their bodies, gives the children
many chances to play with letters and words. Children learn that having
MOVIES
fun with letters and words and learning the alphabet are the first steps to
reading.

Hachaverim Shel Barney

"The Ants Go Marching" is shortened
to six lines (instead of ten lines).
However, in the Israeli co-production
of Barney & Friends, Hachaverim
Shel Barney, it is extended to nine
lines. In addition, "Do Your Ears Hang
Low", "Yankee Doodle," and the
"Alphabet Song" are all cut from the
Israeli version of the episode.
Hachaverim Shel Barney adapted
this episode in many ways to fit the VHS release of "Alphabet
Soup!" by Time Life Video.
Hebrew Aleph Bet. For example, as
Barney's name in Hebrew is only four
letters (Bet, Resh, Nun, Yod (‫))ברני‬, the mystery word is instead
Barney-le (‫)ברנילה‬, which is six letters in Hebrew letters.
In this episode, Baby Bop doesn't appear.
Barney is voiced by Yehoyachin Friedlander instead of Avi Taramin.
