"When I Grow Up..." is the eighteenth episode of the first season of Barney & Friends.

Plot[]

Shawn mentions he's not too thrilled about getting big and taking all that responsibility. But Barney materializes with an amusing, musical look at the wonders of work. The Big Guy's message? You can be anything you want to be! Derek wants to be a doctor, while Shawn wants to be a cowpoke. Min yearns to fight fires, and Kathy makes a great waitress backing up the hugest, purplest maire d' you've ever seen. The kids see that making money's just one benefit of a career. Helping people and satisfaction are also part of the picture. Costumes and make-believe make this youthful career great fun.
