Trivia

 * The two new songs, When I Hear the Music of the Orchestra and Tales of the Symphony Orchestra are based on English Country Garden and the Barcarolle.
 * The song Henry's Dance is used in the opening titles even if Henry the Octopus lived in our backyard rubbish bin.
 * In the behind the scenes we see the Wiggles filming Rock & Roll Preschool though the song wasn't preformed in the video.
 * This is so far the only video that doesn't have music recorded by The Wiggles themselves.
 * This video aired on Treehouse TV in December 2017.


 * This is the last Wiggles DVD to use the 2009 ABC For Kids logo in the opening, despite using the current logo on the packaging. Most likely, the DVD was produced prior to the switch, but packaged afterwards.
 * This video was aired on ABC2 Around Australia Day 2016
