Trivia

• This episode marked:
  • The first appearance of the Season 2 Barney costume.
  • The first appearance of the new Barney doll, with yellow toes being used for the first time, since A Day At The Beach.
  • The first episode to feature a shorter Baby Bop.
  • The first episode in which Baby Bop is performed by Jeff Ayers.
  • The only appearance of the prototype 1993 Baby Bop costume.
  • The first appearance of David.
  • The first appearance of the redesigned Barney Bag.
  • The first re-arrangement of the "I Love You" song that played at the end.
  • The only Barney & Friends episode to have the Barney doll's tail "twinkle" at the beginning.
  • The ninth time where Time Lapse is used. Tina and Baby Bop were on a peanut race before Shawn caught up to them quickly.
• Just like in the first season episode, "A Camping We Will Go!", the camera fades to the Barney doll at the end, rather than pan towards it in one shot after the children leave. This would be the standard method for episodes of seasons 2-3, although some future Barney & Friends episodes would also do the same.
• Behind-the-scenes footage from this episode was shown in an 1993 CBS News report, along with behind-the-scenes footage from Barney's Magical Musical Adventure.
