14	!!This show provides examples of:
15
16	* AnAesop: Often one at the end of an episode. It is a kid's show, after all.
17	* AnnoyingYoungerSibling: Liam and Flora are this from time to time, at least in Katie Morag's eyes.
18	* BookWorm: Katie Morag can frequently be seen carrying a book.
19	* CatchPhrase: For Katie Morag, it's the word 'fabbydoo' to describe anything good. For her mum, it's "Your room's an absolute midden", or some variation thereof.
20	* ChekhovsGun: Well, Chekhov's rainbow, in ''Katie Morag and the Grumpy Grannie''.
21	* ChristmasSpecial: ''Katie Morag and the New Year Party'', though New Year is referred to in the episode by the Scottish term Hogmanay.
22	* CoolBigSis: Katie Morag has her moments.
23	* FieryRedhead: Katie Morag can be quite headstrong.
24	* GoodParents: Mr and Mrs [=McColl=].
25	* IconicItem: Katie Morag's wellies. As seen in her CostumeTestMontage, she has a ''lot'' of pairs of them, and they are the only shoes she ever wears, even when going to a wedding.
26	** Neilly Beag's red bobble hat, which he's never seen without.
27	* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Katie Morag experiences this after she [[SeriousBusiness kicks her teddy into the sea]] in ''Katie Morag and the Tiresome Ted''.
28	* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Granny Island and Granma Mainland.
29	** It later emerges that Granny Island's real name is Izzy.
30	* SiblingRivalry: Katie Morag feels ignored when baby Flora is born, so much so that she kicks her beloved teddy into the sea. [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone She regrets it later]].
31	** Not quite so much that Katie is jealous of baby Flora or annoyed at the attention that she gets (well, a little); it all kicks off when Mum and Dad first arrive home with Flora, and everybody in the village rushes round to take a look at the wee bairn; Katie doesn't mind this too much, but what she really DOES mind is that they won't let her through to get a look at her new little sister!
32	* TokenMinority: Sasha, who appears to be the only non-white person on the island.
33	* ZanyScheme: Katie Morag has to keep some guests distracted in the episode ''Katie Morag and the Baking Day Secret''.
