"A New Friend" is the tenth episode from the seventh season of Bear & Friends. It is a semi-remake of "Be a Friend".
Plot[]
It's always fun to make new friends, but it's not always easy to be the "new kid." When Boris' niece, Clementine, visits the park, Bear guides the kids through a series of fun activities to help Clementine go from being a "new kid" to a "new friend." As Bear sings "I Put A Smile On" and "Misty Moisty Morning Manners," the kids learn how to smile and say hello to new friends. As the kids share their favorite things to do, they find that like "The Lion and the Mouse," friends don't always have everything in common. Tyler, Emily and Dil take turns showing their new friend their favorite places in the park. Even though Clementine must leave with her parents, everyone is excited to have her as a new pen pal. Bear reminds them that whether friends are near or far, friendships can reach around the world.
