Trivia:[]

  • The only time Frances's dad is stuck in the chimney.
  • During the song "Sledding, Sledding" starts, Frances and the gang put on some sledding goggles, and she also uses magic to have some sleds to ride on.
  • Before the song Sleigh Ride" starts, Frances uses his magic to have a sleigh horse wagon to ride on.
  • Before the song The Skating Song" starts, Frances uses his magic to put on a pair of ice skates for her, Gloria, Mom, Dad and Albert.
  • the kind of ice skates that Frances, Gloria, Mom, Dad and Albert wear are made of medal blades, shoe covers, and laces.
  • Another time Albert falls or lays down, this time, after "The Skating Song", he skates too fast, slips on a ice rink and falls down.
  • When Albert screams as he skates too fast, his scream is the same as SpongeBob's scream from "Krabby Land" (when SpongeBob poured all the soap in his eyes), except it was pitched down to -1.
  • When Albert yells "Whooaaaaaaaaa!" as he skates too fast, slips on a ice rink and falls down, the sound clip is Mario's from "Oh Man" (when Mario is pulled down the pipe by the fish caughter that Kookie is using), except it was pitched up to +3 and mixed with Albert's 2006 voice.
  • When Albert falls and crashes into the ice rink after he ice skates too fast, the crash sounds were the mix of the ones from "Kelly's Windy Day" (when Kelly's crane demolishes the shed as he falls into his side because of the wind) and "James In A Mess" (when James crashes into some tar wagons).
  • During a scene where Albert gets groaning while laying on the ice rink, The Season 1-2 Version of Henry Sad Theme is used, expect It was mixed with a Frances arrangement. It would be also used in some Thomas & Friends Season 1-2 episodes (with the Frances arrangement cut off).
  • After Frances ice skates too fast, slips on the ice rink, and falls down, he tells Frances that his tail is bleeding. And Then, Frances puts a big bandage cast on Albert's knee to make it feel better.
  • Frosty the Snowman is a live-action full-bodied puppet mixed with CGI animation
  • Rudoulph the Red-Nosed Reindeer is a live action full-bodied puppet mixed CGi animation.
  • The penguins are live-action full-bodied puppets mixed with CGI animated.
  • The Gingerbread Boy is a live-action full-bodied puppet mixed with CGI animation.
