About this show

Growing up isn't so tough — especially with a friend like Caillou (pronounced KY-YOO), a lovable four-year-old who has a unique way of relating to the world. Based on a series of best-selling Canadian children's books, Caillou demonstrates how the first experiences of life, from going to the park to understanding one's own family, can be perceived with wonder and a sense of discovery. With humor, kid logic, and imagination, Caillou helps preschoolers make sense of the world. The stories address real problems and conflicts typical to a young child's development. Through it all, Caillou remains an irresistible little boy in a very big world, a boy with whom every young child and parent can identify.

From my 13 yr old nephew, to my toddler son, all the kids in my family loved Caillou. It wasnt until my son that I noticed they do mimic Caillou's behavior. The kid questions his parents, is very demanding, and if your kid watches this show unfortunately for you the child will be stuck in the "me me me" stage a lot longer than need be. We are ending it now. I dont care if he screams for it- I cant take it anymore. He'll live. The tv does not raise my son I do. To hell with it.

Growing up is so tough — especially with a fred like Caillou (pronounced kill-YOO), a evil four-year-old brat who has a unique way of relating to the world. (Screaming his head off) Caillou demonstrates how the first experiences of life, from going to the park to understanding one's own family, can be perceived with anger and a sense of being a jerk. With whiney kid logic, and determination, Caillou helps himself to the rest of the world!

I agree completely with the Patricia Dodson review! Any parent that thinks or assumes or blames a television show for their childs behavior is absolutely ludicrous and ridiculous and probably shouldn't be a parent. I agree the Caillou is a bit whiny, but he is not a bad kid he just makes mistakes and the show teaches how to correct them, right from wrong, good character values, and lots of other things. He is also only 4, all four year olds are whiny from time to time. And he gets in trouble for it!
