Round and Round We Go is a Barney Home Video that was released on August 27, 2002.
Plot[]
When Robert bends a wheel cleaning his grandfather's old bike, Barney suggests him and the other kids visit with his friend, "Pop Wheely". Pop Wheely absolutely loves wheels and anything that he has to do with transportation--and he just happens to run a wheel factory. As Pop Wheely's magical machine cranks out a new wheel for Robert's bike, he lets Barney and his friends test new wheels for his bus, his horse wagon, his ship, his train, and airplanes as they learn about street and bike safety along the way. Finally, everyone is back in the treehouse putting the finishing touches on Robert's newly renovated bike.

Production[]
This video was one of five home videos filmed from late 1999 to early 2000 immediately after season six of Barney & Friends wrapped production. Other videos filmed around that same time included Barney's Super Singing Circus, Be My Valentine Love, Barney, You Can Be Anything, and Barney's Beach Party. Although the video was released in 2002, it had a 2000 copyright date, meaning its production finished that year.
Release[]
According to Barney's Dino Dancin' Tunes, the prototype name for this video was "Barney's Wings, Wheels & Waves" before being renamed to Round and Round We Go. Round and Round We Go was intended to be released on July 30, 2002 before being pushed back to August 27, 2002. The former date eventually became the pre-order date.
Home media[]
- On November 22, 2002 [citation needed], this video was featured in the Blockbuster Exclusive video, On The Move with Barney (along with Barney's Adventure Bus).
- On September 22, 2009, it was re-released under a different title, Fun on Wheels.
Segments[]
The "Barney Says" segment was featured at the end of this video before the credits which was from the taping of the episode, "A Parade of Bikes", and it also showed a preview of the graphics for the then-upcoming season which was a reminder on bike safety. This video could also mark the early first appearances of Kami and Sarah, and this is also the only home video to have the "Barney Says" segment.
- International dubs of this video's release as well as on the Blockbuster Exclusive VHS of On The Move with Barney omit this segment.

Trivia[]
- The blue apron that Robert wears in the video is prototype of the art attire used in season seven of Barney & Friends. In addition, this video was released one week before the season started airing.
- On the front video cover of this video, Barney is seen riding a bike with Baby Bop. However, in "Differences", Barney is unable to ride a bike, because he is too big (as his weight breaks the tires off).
- This video was closed-captioned by Media Access Group at WGBH.
- Robert's bike is a Schwinn Cruiser.
Music[]
- In "Barney's Dino Dancin' Tunes", the "Hey, Look at Me! I Can Fly!" musical number is shown, although with a different arrangement by Joseph Phillips.
- The version of "I Love You" is similar to the version from the rendition used in the Barney's Sleepytime Songs album (albeit with an increased tempo).
