This cartoon's everyday treatment of a pregnancy announcement and subsequent birth of a child was an example of how the old Hays Code was on the decline. It would disappear entirely by the end of the decade.
Fractured Fairy Tales, a popular segment on the rival cartoon program Rocky and Bullwinkle, was a likely influence here.

The father reads a periodical called Tyme, a spoof on the popular Time Magazine.
