- As the series became popular worldwide, localized versions of the series were produced, either overdubbing Steve or Joe, or replaced by a completely new host.
- A version was created for UK audiences. Several changes were:
- The host was neither Steve or Joe. Instead a new character named Kevin (played by Kevin Duala) was given the role. He appeared in all episodes and wore both outfits the aforementioned American hosts wore.
- Three characters have their names changed. Shovel and Pail are instead referred to as Spade and Bucket, Mailbox is now called Postbox.
- Some song lyrics were changed with "British English" terms used in lieu of American English terms.
- Periwinkle's gender is changed. In the US version, Periwinkle is a boy, however in the English version, his gender is changed to a female.
