Other characters included puppets such as Hatchet (a beaver), Renfrew (a dog), Gasper (a skunk), Cooter (a coyote) and the triplets Webster, Dee Dee and Tug.The show was a huge hit in Canada and around the world; it also aired on some PBS member stations in the United States. Spin-offs included "Size Small Country" (1983) and "Size Small Island" (1986). A "Size Small" Christmas special was also produced in 1984.

"Size Small" was originally produced in Winnipeg, Manitoba at CKND-TV Fact|date=February 2007. The show's production would later move in 1987 to CFSK-TV in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, where "Size Small" was that station's first scheduled program when it signed on on September 6, 1987.

Approximately 16 "Size Small" records were produced, featuring songs performed on the show. They were advertised at the end of every episode of the TV show, where they could be purchased by mail order.
