Ms. Frizzle’s outfit[]
In this episode, Ms. Frizzle wears a sky-blue parka that depicts a tundra inhabited by polar bears. She also wears ski goggles.
Later in the episode, post-field trip at D.A.'s storytelling tent, we get a slight glimpse of Ms. Frizzle's skirt but we never see along the hem line. Her pendant is a snowflake, and along the hip line are blue snowflake silhouettes. Underneath that is a tundra, similar to that on her parka, but lacking polar bears and made of noticeably darker blue.

Trivia[]
- Amos Crawley (Arnold (Season 1), Harry Arm) voices Dorothy Ann's father. Amos Crawley will also go on to voice elderly Arnold in In the Zone.
- The concepts discussed in this episode are similar to topics in The Magic School Bus and the Climate Challenge.
- The tie-in book is called "Glacier Adventure", and it is shaped vertically instead of horizontally like those in the original series.
- Janet and William make cameos in the audience.
- Ralphie's outfit in Keesha’s air bubble (the 70s) becomes his default outfit starting in The Frizz Connection.
- Wanda is the only student to not appear in any of the air bubbles, due to her being left in the present day.
- This is the second time Arnold replaces the word “home” in “I knew I should have stayed home today!” with a specific type of home. He says “I knew I should have stayed in my cave today!” in the Neolithic air bubble. The first time he did this was in In the City, when he, as a fox, says, “I knew I should have stayed in my den, I mean, home today.”
Errors[]
- In the 19th century layer, when Carlos says “Run!” during the eruption, the captions mistake his voice for Tim’s.
Allusions[]
- SpongeBob SquarePants – This episode uses bubble transitions, however they go horizontally instead of vertically.
