Trivia

• This episode marked:
  • The first episode of the entire franchise to have an 11-minute runtime, unless you count the segments "Return to Rainbow Rock" and "A Swiper Emergency" from Dora's Rainforest Reunion.
  • The first episode in the franchise to be released in the United States since Let's Go to Music School in 2019.
  • The first appearances of Backpack, Tico, Benny and his grandmother in the reboot, as well as their new designs.
  • The first performances of Katarina Sky as Backpack, Quintún Muñoz as Benny, and Donovan Monzon-Sanders as Tico.
  • The debuts of the reimagined version of Map and the new Fiesta Trio.
  • The first speaking role of Benny's grandmother.
  • The first appearance of a somewhat redone version of the "We Did It!" song known as "Super Bien".
• This episode made its debut on YouTube just one day after the release of Dora and the Fantastical Creatures in theaters, and it is currently the earliest episode to be released before 2024.
• In this episode, Swiper says "Oh, nuts! Where do all these nuts come from?!" instead of his usual catchphrases, due to sliding on the nuts scattered on the ground by Tico.

• 

  "MAP ALERT!"

  Map gives Dora, Boots, and Benny a "map alert!" due to the troll bridge being blocked. As she does this, a red light can be seen flashing from the top of her head.
  • An earlier concept of a map alert exists in the Dora and Friends episode Gymnastics Tournament of Light.
• A "tres leches" cake is mentioned for the second time in the franchise after "Dora's Thanksgiving Day Parade".

Goofs

• Unlike Best Friends, Boots is shown to have a dislike with strawberries possibly due to his mild seasonal allergies.
