Trivia[]

  • This is the 1st episode to feature an animal other than Little Dog Fido; this episode features a horse. The 2nd episode is "Drink of Milk", which features a cow. The 3rd episode is "Jigsaw", which features a donkey, and the 4th episode is "Flying Fish", which features a fish.
  • It's possible that Grandpappa swam showing up because he was seen walking out from the water, but he's not wet.
  • The kids off-screen blow for a castle, but we don't get to see the interior of the castle while the exterior is noted because the segment ends just after they do so.
  • Grandpappa suddenly appears on-screen from the distance when the narrator says "somebody's coming".
  • The suit of armour would make Grandpappa a knight.
  • This is the only time a Storyperson hits the camera.
  • Even though there aren't any houses in Storyworld, this is the first episode featuring a castle as a building to be introduced, in other episodes, many presents reveal house appliances for the Storypeople to play with, which could be why the castle couldn't show its inside because of what it already has in it when the show tries teaching kids about house things when they grow up rather than showing a place with real appliances.
  • This episode has the same Present Giving as Squirty Flower.
