Trivia:

 * This is the first Shires movie to short the name in their 2006 logo, (With the exceptation for the closing logo variation for Chris and Dhris Rescue Rangers.)
 * In the beginning, the logo plays normal, but when the text appeared, Michael and Pictures are dropped, and Shires is in the center, but the opening music plays over the logo, instead of the logo's music is heard.
 * In this feature, after the closing credits disappears, the closing logo cuts from and to blank.
