Wrap-Up Song | |
| The Polka Dot Door / int_199106df | comment |
Wrap-Up Song: An unusual case in that the wrap up song would be sung at the end of the week, as the hosts rotated week to week. The hosts would sing goodbye to the toys as they put them away, then to the viewer, saying that they will see them again soon to "laugh and sing and play". | |

Missed Him by That Much | |
| The Polka Dot Door / int_6e27397 | comment |
Missed Him by That Much: The Polkaroo combined this with a little Clark Kenting —only one host at a time could see the Polkaroo, since he was portrayed by the other host. | |

| The Polka Dot Door / int_a65288e2 | comment |
Ascended Extra: Initially, Polkaroo only appeared once per week as part of Imagination Day. The character was so popular with fans, that later in the show's run, he started to make appearances outside of Imagination Day. When Polka Dot Shorts premiered, Polkaroo became a Breakout Character | |

Rearrange the Song | |
| The Polka Dot Door / int_b24ce4b2 | comment |
Rearrange the Song: The show had a different theme for each day of the week, with Monday being "Treasure Day", Tuesday "Dress-Up Day", Wednesday "Animal Day", Thursday "Imagination Day", and Friday "Finding-Out Day". The opening song was slightly altered to mention each day's theme. | |

Pokémon Speak: The Polkaroo's vocabulary was basically limited to "Polkaroo". Averted in Polka Dot Shorts, where Polkaroo spoke in full English | |

The '70s / The '80s: You can definitely tell this is when the show was made. Look at the hairstyles and pastels! The show continued to be produced into The '90s but the opening titles were never updated, and everything about them (the animation, the instrumentation, even the vocal stylings of the singer) are about as early '70s as you can possibly get. | |
