Trivia

• When Marvin drops the crates of snacks and falls over the gate of the new day-care center, Steve Zahn fractured his wrist. His final scenes were edited out because he needed a cast.
• John Goodman was considered for Phil.
• The band Cheap Trick actually plays in the fundraising carnival scene
• Lacey Chabert turned 20 years old during production of Daddy Day Care.
• There is a running gag about Star Trek. Eddie Murphy was considered for a role in Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home (1986), but never made it into the Trek universe.
