Tonight is a very special night for Robert. It’s his mom’s birthday and he is going out to a fancy restaurant for the very first time. To help Robert get ready for his big night out, Barney and the gang set up a make-believe restaurant in the treehouse. The children make placemats for the restaurant with the help of the Barney Bag. Chip, Hannah, BJ and Baby Bop create the meal in the classroom while Barney, Robert and Ashley get the restaurant ready with some help from Miss Etta. Scooter adds a surprise of his own. Through making the menu and preparing for the meal, the children learn all about good nutrition and the importance of eating different kinds of foods. Meanwhile, when Robert realizes that he forgot to get his mother a birthday present, the other children offer their placemats to Robert as a special birthday gift for his mom.
