Trivia

- This is the second time Periwinkle skidoos. The first time was in Periwinkle Misses His Friend.

Goofs
- In the DirecTV guide of this episode, Steve Burns is accidentally added to the cast.
- When coming up with things to represent themselves for the "Big Book About Us," the characters have all conveniently forgotten about the things they collected in Blue's Collection.
- In this episode, Sidetable states that her favorite color is purple. But in Colors Everywhere! she states that her favorite color is orange.
- Her favorite color was the rainbow in Colors Everywhere with Blue
- This is a total goof that she might have more then one favorite color.
- This episode is listed as a Season 4 episode on streaming services, such as Amazon Prime and iTunes.
- The same thing happens in Can You Help?, I'm So Happy!, The Boat Float, and The Scavenger Hunt.
- This is the first season five produced episode.
- Another goof similar to this is that on the streaming services listed above, this episode is listed before Joe's First Day, Joe Gets a Clue, and Steve Goes to College.
- It's likely this episode was accidently swapped with Puppets as a similar situation happened to that episode but in reverse.
- The same thing happens in Can You Help?, I'm So Happy!, The Boat Float, and The Scavenger Hunt.
