Trivia

• This was nominated for the 2004 ARIA Music Award for Best Children's Album, but lost to Hi-5 Holiday.
• Murray Cook, Jeff Fatt & Anthony Field are uncredited for the vocals.
• The Wiggles wrote most of the songs with their early childhood knowledge they got from Macquarie University over 13 years earlier.
• Likewise, this was The Wiggles' most educational album they ever made

Goofs

• On the Australian disc where it says 'Marketed and distributed in Australasia', the 'and distributed' has no space between it.
• The introduction to Bow Wow Wow (Introduction To Bow Wow Wow) Anthony says 'and I'm Anthony!' the end of 'Anthony' is slightly cut off.
