The Spanish version premiered on Sprout On Demand on July 16th, four days after the show first aired on the network.

When LazyTown premiered, its air time on Wiggly Waffle was moved to 7:26AM and took The Mighty Jungle’s former timeslot.

On March 12th, 2012, after What’s Your News? stopped airing, the show returned to The Sunny Side Up Show, once again at 11:30AM ET. In later months, it was replaced in that timeslot by The Chica Show, another show in which the characters play dress up and go on adventures.
In later years, it aired in early mornings at 4AM ET and at 7:30AM ET during the The Super Sproutlet Show. It survived the 2015 rebrand but stopped airing on December 12th, 2016.
