Changing each day

she is getting older. And you said the little
bird died because it was too old.

older. So you really dont need to worry about
now. I promise! Ok?

daylight outside. How could Caillou sleep when his room was so bright? Sleeping the wrong
way round didn't work. Caillou really couldn't sleep and now he was feeling quite cranky.
Grandma: Caillou, you're all mixed up. Your head is where your feet should be.
Caillou: Grandma, I can't sleep.
Grandma: Well, I'm not surprised. It's too bright in here. And I can see why. You don't have

I have an idea.

Caillou: Yeah! A sea otter. It's a sea otter. They're my favorite.
Zoe: That little guy came to us when he was just a baby, Caillou.
Caillou: Does he have a famliy too?
Zoe: I'm afraid not. You see, his mommy died.
Caillou: His mommy died? Will he be alright?

do, we've had to teach him everything. Even how to swim and how to feed himself.

Caillou: I wish we could take him home with us.
Zoe: Oh, you can't do that. He's almost ready to go back to the ocean.
Mommy: What's so funny, Caillou?

growing. Caillou went to the vegetable patch every day to see how his carrots were coming

believe it.

Daddy: I'm going to show you a whole bunch of people that have to go to work,
just like Mommy and me.
The mailman: Good morning, Caillou.
Caillou: Are you working?
The mailman: Sure, I am. I'm delivering the mail. Would you like to help me?

66
Caillou: Can I?
The mailman: Here, could you take this letter and put it in Mr. Hinkle's mail-box?
Daddy: You see, Caillou. A mail carrier works everyday.
Caillou: Why?
The mailman: To make sure that Mr. Hinkle gets his mail and your Daddy gets his bills.
Daddy: I'll get that one.
Caillou: Over there, Daddy. Wait!
The garbage collector: Are you sure you two don't wanna come and work with us?
Caillou: Can we?
Daddy: Sure, but not until you're little older, okay?
The garbage collector: You have to wait and till you are big and strong. It's a tough job
keeping the town clean.
Daddy: After all that hard work, how about we get us a snack?
Caillou: Yes.
Daddy: I just have to make a quick stop first.
Caillou: Why do you have to work, Daddy?
Daddy: Because I enjoy working and I make money doing it.
Caillou: But the machine gives you money.
Daddy: Yes, it does. But first I have to put it in.
Caillou: I have a muffin, too.
The police officer: Is it a chocolate chip muffin, like mine?
Caillou: No, can you turn on the lights on top?
Daddy: Maybe the officers are busy, Caillou.
The police officer: Not at all, we're on break. Would you like to turn them on, Caillou?
Caillou: Yes.This is officer Caillou, Ten-four.
Daddy: Okay, officer Caillou. Time to let them go back to a pulling alarm.
Caillou: Daddy, I wanna be a police officer when I grow up.
Daddy: You can definitely do that, too, Caillou. But first let's get you to your play group,
okay? Daddy has to go to work now, just like all the people we saw at work this morning.
Okay?
Caillou: Okay!
Miss Martin: There you are, Caillou. I was wondering when you're going to show up?
Caillou: Miss Martin, I sat in a police car.
Miss Martin: Really? That must be fun.
Daddy: I was showing Caillou people at work. We also saw a mail carrier and the garbage
collector.
Right, Caillou?
Caillou: But the police officer has the best job.
Miss Martin: But I think my job is the best in the whole world because I get to play with
you.
Daddy: Ten-four, officer Caillou.

Caillou: No Daddy.
Daddy: And I can't find his box!
Mommy: Look what I found!

Caillou: Silly Gilbert! I love riding in the car!

Storyteller: Gilbert was back in his box and they were on their way again.
Daddy: By the way, Caillou, just how did Gilbert get out of his box?

would you like to help me, Caillou? Just pet Gilbert and keep him calm.
Caillou: Don't worry, Gilbert.

tourists drivers to watch for them.
Caillou: a moose? Wow, can I see one?
Rosie: Rosie, too.
Mommy: hum, you shouldnt get your hopes up too high Caillou.

Peer: You are going to have lots of adventures here Caillou. You can play games and go

Caillou: look.
Mommy: oh, no. what, chipmunk!

a little girl like Rosie.

63. Chop Sticks

One afternoon,
Caillou and Sarah were playing in Sarah's backyard.
Sarah, supper time!
Twenty-eight, twenty-nine, thirty!
Yeah! I did it.
Let me try now!
You're too little to jump rope.
Show me how, Sarah.
It's time for supper, Sarah.
Come in and set the table, please.
I'll show you how another day.
Bye, Caillou.

73
Why don't you have supper with us, Caillou?
I'll call your mommy and ask her.
Your mom says you can stay, Caillou.
Why don't you help Sarah set the table?
Just put them in front of each place.
What are they?
They're chopsticks.
You eat with them, like this.
What's this?
It's Chinese noodles and vegetables.
I love noodles,
but I don't like vegetables.
What's this?
It's an egg roll.
Don't worry, it's not a vegetable.
Whoops!
Good shot, Caillou!
Chopsticks can be a bit tricky at first.
Caillou learned that it takes a bit of practice
to get the hang of using chopsticks.
Oops!
Sarah's cat Ollie was very happy that Caillou had come for supper.
I eat my egg roll with my hands.
Maybe you should use your fork now, Caillou.
Okay.
Eat your bok choy, Sarah.
It's good for you.
Look, Sarah, Caillou is eating all of his.
Bok choy's a vegetable, Caillou.
You hate vegetables!
I like Chinese vegetables.
Is that a dragon?
Yes, it's a Chinese dragon.
Would you like to try it on?
Oh, you make a very scary dragon, Caillou.
Roar!
Green is my favourite.
Green is my favourite, too!
Caillou, what are you doing?
I want to try the chopsticks.
You can't eat this with chopsticks.
It's much too slippery.
Wow!
Oops!

74
Show me how, Caillou!
Caillou was able to show Sarah something new.

64. a special dog

Caillou and his Mommy were on their way to play ball in the park.
What's that?
You've heard that before, remember?
I know.
It's to tell us when it's safe to cross.
Excuse me.
I'm looking for the Dog Run.
I know where it is.
You do?
Where?
The park is just over there.
You can't miss it.
Thank you!
Every time Caillou went to the park
he liked to look at the map and decide which way to go.
I want to go this way.
Okay.
Ahhhh!
It's Okay.
Don't worry, they won't bite you!
You have two dogs?
Oh, no. I'm a dog walker.
That's my job.
Caillou thought being a dog walker sounded like a great job.
I'm taking these guys to the Dog Run.
It's here!
I'm going there!
Maybe we'll see you later.
Hold still, guys!
Is there anything we can do to help?
I don't think so.
That was pretty funny, wasn't it?
Coming through!
Wow!
Neat, huh?
His name is Dylan.
He can shake hands.

75
Want to try?
Hi, Dylan. I'm Caillou.
Why don't you throw that for him?
He's pretty good at catching balls, too.
Yeah! Dylan!
Here you go.
Pretty gross, huh?
Catch you later, dude!
I think you'd better wipe it with this, honey.
Okay.
A little farther on,
Caillou's Mommy met an old friend of hers named Barbara.
And you must be Caillou.
I like your dog.
His name is Maxwell.
Hi, Maxwell!
Can I play with him?
You can pet him.
Will he bring my ball back?
I'm sorry, Caillou.
But I can't let him play ball with you.
Maxwell is a very special dog.
He has work to do.
Work?
Yes. He helps me.
What does he do?
Well, Caillou.
I'm blind and Maxwell is my guide dog.
Blind?
My friend Barbara can't see.
So Maxwell's job is to see for me.
Caillou was surprised to learn that dogs had jobs to do,
just like grown-ups.
Would you like to see how he helps me?
Barbara is blind, remember?
That means she can't see you nodding your head.
So if you would like to see how Maxwell does his job,
you have to tell me.
Okay. Yes.
Yes, please!
This is Maxwell's harness.
I hold onto it, and he leads me everywhere.
Caillou loved seeing how Maxwell showed Barbara which way to go.
What's Maxwell doing now, Caillou?

76
He's sitting.
When he sits down
he's telling me it's not safe to walk.
Wow!
Hey! Come back here!
Stop!
Please come back!
Caillou discovered that Maxwell was a smart dog,
a very smart dog.
Caillou knew that sound meant it was safe to cross the street.
We can go!
But Maxwell knew it wasn't completely safe to cross just yet.
Good boy, Maxwell.
Good boy, Maxwell!
Way to go!

65. Caillou beats the heat

Caillou: No, it's me! Caillou!
Daddy: Whoa! Better take those flippers off. You might trip.
Caillou: I'm going to wear them on my hands, ha ha, instead of my feet!
Caillou: Can we go to the swimming pool, Mommy?
Mommy: Oh, I'm sorry, honey, we can't go to the pool today.
Caillou: Why?
Mommy: Daddy and I have a lot to do around the house.
Storyteller: Caillou was sad. He really wanted to go swimming today.
Rosie: Swim! Swim! Swim!
Caillou: Rosie wants to go swimming too!
Mommy: Aw, we'll try to go tomorrow, Caillou.
Caillou: But I want to go today! Gilbert's hot too! He's got no water.
Rosie: Gilbert drinks juice!
Caillou: Mommy, Rosie's throwing her juice!
Mommy: Caillou! Don't clean up juice with your beach towel!
Caillou: I just wanted to help. I'm going outside!
Mommy: Don't forget your hat.

Mommy: You are hot and sticky too! You need a good washing up and cooling down!
Caillou: Ha ha! The sprinkler!
Mommy: You set it up and I'll turn it on!
Caillou: Okay! Nothing's coming out, Mommy. You... ha ha ha, you tricked me! Ha ha ha ha!
Daddy: Come on, Caillou. Jump in! Ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!

Jack Sullivan r: No, I just tow them, but you'll meet my dad at the garage, he's the one who
fixes them.
Caillou: Your dad?
Jack Sullivan: Yup, like it says on the side of the truck, Sullivan and Son. I'm the son, Jack
Sullivan.
Caillou: I'm Caillou.
Jack Sullivan: My Daddy doesn't fix cars.
Jack Sullivan: Oh, I'm pretty sure that your dad knows how to fix a whole bunch of things.
Caillou: My Daddy has a wrench and a hammer in his toolbox too!
Jack Sullivan: Really? And he can't fix a car? Ha ha ha ha!!!

Mr. Sullivan: Down here!
Mr. Sullivan: All done! Caillou, your car's all fixed up.

Daddy: That's okay. Just take your time.
Caillou: Hey! Give me my ball! Come back! Daddy help! He's got my ball!
Daddy: Ha ha ha, gotcha= got you! He has a collar so he must belong to someone. Well,
we've looked a long time and no one seems to know whose dog this is.
Caillou: He's all alone?
Daddy: He must be lost. He's a scruffy little guy, isn't he?
Caillou: Scruffy? We could call him Scruffy! Oh, could I keep him, Daddy? Please!
Daddy: I'm sorry, Caillou.
Caillou: But this dog probably belongs to someone who misses him very much.
Caillou: Huh?
Daddy: I'll tell you what though. We can help find his owner. How's that?
Daddy: Okay.
Storyteller: Caillou was sad. He wanted to keep the dog all to himself.
Daddy: Hello? Anybody home?
Mommy: Who's this?
Caillou: I found him! His name is Scruffy!
Daddy: He was lost in the park. I thought we could help find his owner.
Mommy: Hmmm.

Mommy: What a mess! Why don't you two take him outside and clean him up.
Daddy: Time to rinse him off. Ahhh! Look out!

put on a poster.
Caillou: Smile, Scruffy!
Daddy: Perfect! Now we just have to make copies and buy some dog food on our way
home.
Caillou: What if no one calls, Daddy? Can I keep him?
Daddy: We'll see. Taking care of a dog is a big job.
Mommy: Hello? Yes. Uh-huh. That's him. Great. See you then. That was Scruffy's owner.
She saw your poster and is coming over to pick him up.
The little girl: Rocky!

Bye!

Storyteller: Caillou loved looking at all the Christmas lights in his neighborhood. He was
very excited because today he was going to visit Santa.

Caillou: A picture for Santa so he'll remember what to bring me for Christmas.
Mommy: That's a great idea! What are you gonna ask for?
Storyteller: Caillou was having a very hard time deciding what to ask Santa to bring him for
Christmas.
Mommy: What about a toy car?
Storyteller: Caillou finally knew what to ask Santa for.
Caillou: When are we getting a Christmas tree?
Mommy: Today, right after dad finishes up his work.
Storyteller: He could hardly believe it, seeing Santa and decorating the tree all in the same

81
day!
Mommy: Caillou, we're gonna put decorations on the tree, not on you.
Caillou: Where's Daddy?
Mommy: I think he's still on the phone, he'll be out in a minute.
Caillou: I'll go get him. Daddy, hurry! We're going to see Santa
Daddy: I'll just be a minute, Caillou. You're tracking snow into the house.
Storyteller: Caillou was very impatient to see Santa and wanted Daddy to get off the phone.
Daddy: Okay, thank you very much! I'll talk to you soon.
Caillou: Come on, Daddy. Hurry!
Daddy: Okay, okay, I'm coming! You know what? I think I better go to the bathroom first.
Caillou: Go fast, Daddy.
Daddy: This is a switch. I usually have to wait for you. I'll just be a minute.
Daddy: Caillou, wait for us!
Storyteller: He was very excited to go and see Santa
Daddy: Caillou!
Caillou: Daddy!
Storyteller: Caillou was afraid to get on the escalator by himself and Daddy was already on
his way up!
Daddy: It's okay, I'm coming down.
Storyteller: Daddy looked very funny walking down the escalator going the wrong way.
Caillou: That's the wrong way.
Daddy: You're right! The "up" escalator is only for going up,but I had to come and get you!
Caillou: Clementine!
Sara: Hi, Caillou! I'm gonna tell Santa what I want for Christmas!
Caillou: Me too. What do you want?
Sara: I want a new doll and a jump rope, and an oven, so I can make my own cakes and
cookies, and maybe a new teddy bear or a big fluffy dog. What are you asking for? But
that's only one thing.
Storyteller: Caillou wasn't sure if he should ask Santa for more. But all he really wanted
was this one special thing. Watching Clementine with Santa, he was suddenly a little
nervous to go up and ask him for what he wanted.
Daddy: Go on, Caillou, it's your turn.
Santa: Ho ho ho! Whats this? A picture for me? I love getting pictures. Did you write your
name on it?
Well, then you'd better tell me your name so I don't forget who it's from.
Caillou: Caillou.
Santa: Ho ho ho ho!
Santa: This is a beautiful drawing, Caillou.
Why don't you climb up here and tell me more about it.
Storyteller: Caillou was very happy that Santa liked is drawing and he didn't feel shy
anymore.
Santa: Ho ho ho! Why, this looks like a dinosaur.
Caillou: Yes. It's a dinosaur that walks and talks.
Santa: You mean you want a real dinosaur?

82
Caillou: No, a toy dinosaur, with batteries.
Santa: Ho! Ho! Ho! Phew! I don't have many real dinosaurs at the North Pole! But I think I
just might have the kind what you want.
Caillou: Yeah!
Santa: Ho! Ho! Ho! Merry Christmas, Caillou!
Storyteller: Caillou was happy that he had asked Santa for a dinosaur.
Santa: And who's this?
Caillou: Rosie's my sister.
Santa: Rosie. That's a beautiful name.And what would you like for Christmas, Rosie?
Santa: Ho! Ho! Ho!
Santa: Rosie's a little scared, Caillou. I think we better wait until next year. I'm going to
bring you something special for Christmas, Rosie. Bye, Caillou. Ho! Ho! Ho! Have a Merry,
Merry, Christmas.
Storyteller: Caillou was proud of being a big boy and not being afraid of Santa any more.
Caillou: Where are the trees, Daddy?
Sales clerk: Sorry, I just sold my last Christmas tree to that family over there.
Sara: Look at my tree, Caillou. We're going home to decorate it. Bye!
Caillou: I want to decorate a Christmas tree, too.
Daddy: I'm sorry, Caillou, but there are none left.
Sales clerk: Here you go, kid. If you come back tomorrow, I promise I'll have the best tree
waiting just for you.
Rosie: I want! I want!
Sales clerk: So I'll see you folks tomorrow?Merry Christmas!
Storyteller: Caillou was very upset. He didn't want to wait for tomorrow, he wanted to
decorate the tree today.
Caillou: Mommy, Daddy, look!
Mommy: What on earth?
Caillou: Gilbert!
Storyteller: Caillou didn't want to be outside, he wanted to be inside, decorating a
Christmas tree.
Caillou: Why can't we get a tree, Daddy?
Daddy: The man said he'd have more trees tomorrow, Caillou.
Caillou: But I want to decorate the tree now!
Daddy: You know what? Maybe we can!
Caillou: Really?
Daddy: Why don't we go inside and get that box of decorations? We're going to decorate us
a Christmas tree!
Caillou: Mommy? Can we still have a tree inside?
Mommy: Of course we can, sweetie.
Storyteller: Caillou thought he was the luckiest boy in the world.
Santa Claus was bringing him a dinosaur
and he was going to have two Christmas trees!
Daddy: Ready?
Caillou: Wow!

83
Storyteller: Caillou thought it was the most beautiful tree he had ever seen.

71. Downhill From Here

Storyteller:
It was a beautiful winter day when Caillou went to the ski hill with his family. There wasn't
a cloud in the sky. Well, maybe there was a cloud or two.
Mommy:
Are you ready to go skiing, Caillou?
Storyteller:
Caillou was a little afraid, because he had never skied before.
Rosie:
Ski, ski, ski.
Daddy:
Come on, Rosie. We're going to go have some hot chocolate.
Mommy:
Now, let's put on your equipment.
Caillou:
Why do I have to wear this?
Mommy:
For the same reason you wear one on your bicycle. It protects your head.
Caillou:
Ah-oh, wow. These boots are too heavy mommy.
Mommy:
Don't worry. We won't be walking much in these boots. They are for using move skis
Caillou:
How?
Mommy:
Like that. Look at Sara.
Caillou:
Sara.
Storyteller:
Seeing his friends ski made Caillou want to try it right away
Caillou:
Sara, wait for me.
Rosie:
Rosie ski?
Daddy:
No, but you can watch from in here and be worm and cozy, and drink hot chocolate with
your daddy.
Caillou:
Wow.
Caillou:
I don't want to go. It's too high.
Storyteller:

84
Caillou was afraid of going up on the tow lift. He thought he would fall.
Mommy:
But if you wanna ski down. First you have to go up. Don't worry, I'll do with you.
Mommy:
See, Caillou. This isn't so bad.
Caillou:
Mommy it's too high.
Mommy:
Yes, but I'll be hanging on to you with this.
Sara:
Hi, Caillou.
Caillou:
Mommy, I want to ski like Sara.
Mommy:
That's called the snow plow. First you have to make a pizza slice with your skis
Caillou:
Like this?
Mommy:
Yes, but you have to bend your knees a little. Like this.
Sara:
That's okay, Caillou. Everyone falls when they first learn to ski. Come on, try again. You
have to put your skis sideways like this.
Storyteller:
Caillou wanted to show Sara that he could do it all by himself.
Caillou:
I don't want to ski any more.
Mommy:
But look, youve almost skid all the way down.
Storyteller:
Caillou was proud of himself. He may have fallen a few times. But he always got up and
tried again.
Sara:
I'm cold. I'm going in for hot chocolate.
Caillou:
Woo, me, too.
Daddy:
Rosie can't wait to go skiing when she is a little older.
Mommy:
Ah, I wished there was some way we could all go down the hill together right now.
Caillou:
I know how we can, mommy.

85
 72. Next Stop Fun

Storyteller:
Caillou was very excited because he was about to take a long trip on the train for the very
first time.
Caillou:
When is the train coming, mommy?
Rosie:
Train.
Mommy:
It shouldn't be much longer, sweetie.
Daddy:
These weigh a ton. We are only going a way for two weeks but we packed enough for the
entire summer.
Caillou:
Daddy, Daddy. I hear the train. It's coming.
Storyteller:
Caillou was very excited but as he watched the train getting closer. He began to feel a little
scared.
Caillou:
Mommy.
Daddy:
It's very big, isn't it?
Storyteller:
Caillou couldn't believe how big the train was. The noise frightened him.
Caillou:
I don't want to go.
Daddy:
There is nothing to be afraid of. Come on, It's time to get on board.
Stanley:
Are you two coming on board?
Daddy:
Yes, sir. We are.
Stanley:
Well then maybe someone should help your dad with those bags.
Daddy:
There you go.
Stanley:
Are you folks travelling far?
Caillou:
We are on the train for two days.
Stanley:

86
Really, and what's your name?
Caillou:
Caillou.
Stanley:
Well, Caillou. Have you ever slept on a train before?
Caillou:
No.
Stanley:
You're gonna love it. You'll see itll rock you straight to sleep.
Caillou:
Well, where are the beds?
Stanley:
That's the best part. They magically appear when it's dark. Say "sleep" three times and clap
your hands and I bet you they'll show up.
Caillou:
Really?
Stanley:
Really, but first I'm gonna need your tickets. Thank you. We should be leaving any minute
now. I'll see you later, Caillou.
Caillou:
Daddy, it looks like the train station is moving.
Daddy:
It's really the train that's moving, Caillou. It just looks like its the other way around.
Daddy:
Why don't we go exploring while mommy puts Rosie down for her nap?
Caillou:
Yeah!
Storyteller:
Caillou was so excited about exploring the train that he had a hard time keeping quiet.
Daddy:
It's kind of hard walking in the train, isn't it?
Storyteller:
Caillou thought walking on the train was like being on a ride at the amusement park.
Caillou:
Where's the bathroom?
Daddy:
I'm not sure. But it can't be far.
Caillou:
Can we find one now?
Storyteller:
Caillou had never seen such a small bathroom before. He wasn't sure how anything
worked.
Daddy:
Are you okay in there?

87
Caillou:
I don't know how it works daddy.
Daddy:
Hay, it's just your size. Here, you press the button on the wall to flush and don't forget to
wash your hands.
Storyteller:
Caillou thought it was funny to be in such a small bathroom. It was much smaller than the
one at home.
Caillou:
Hi!
Conductor:
Oh, hello there. And what's your name?
Caillou:
Caillou.
Conductor:
What do you think of my kitchen?
Caillou:
We have a kitchen too. But it is a lot bigger than yours.
Conductor:
Well, maybe it is. But does your kitchen travel to far away places?
Daddy:
No, can't say that it does. Could you tell us where the restaurant is?
Caillou:
There is a restaurant too?
Stanley:
Hi, Caillou. Boy that looks good. So, have you been on the grand tour?
Daddy:
Let's see, the bathroom, the kitchen and now the restaurant. I'll call that a grand tour.
Stanly:
You mean you haven't been to the dome car yet? That's the best part.
Storyteller:
Caillou was having so many wonderful new adventures that he couldn't imagine what could
be better than his triple brownie sundae.
Caillou:
What's a dome car?
Stanley:
Ah-oh, the dome car is a wonderful place. You climb up some stairs and suddenly it's like
you're flying in a plane.
Caillou:
A plane on the train?
Daddy:
Next stop the dome car.
Stanley:
Wow, slow down Caillou. You wouldn't want to get a stomachache and not be able to go

88
flying, would you?
Daddy:
Go on up Caillou.
Storyteller:
Caillou really wondered how a plane could sit on a train.
Caillou:
How do we fly on the train, daddy?
Daddy:
Stanley was comparing it to a plane because we're above the ground and the train goes
fast. Come on, you'll see. Wow, Caillou. This is beautiful. Now do you see why Stanley says
its like being in a plane?
Caillou:
Vroom, vroom, vroom, vroom.
Storyteller:
Caillou pretended he was flying his very own plane. He loved watching the passing clouds
out of the glass roof.
Mommy:
Come on, Caillou. It's time for bed.
Caillou:
I don't want to go to bed.
Storyteller:
Caillou loved being on the train so much. That he wasn't quite ready for bed yet.
Daddy:
Come in
Caillou:
Stanley, mommy says it's bed time, but the beds aren't here yet.
Stanley:
Really? That's strange. Is it dark outside?
Stanly:
Did you brush your teeth? Well then, I think it's time for the magic words. Do you
remember what we have to do, Caillou?
Caillou:
Say "sleep" three times and clap my hands.
Rosie:
Sleep, sleep.
Caillou:
Rosie, wait. I'm not ready.
Stanly:
Now you and Rosie have to shut your eyes real tight, okay? Are you ready? Now, don't
peek. Okay, Caillou, now slowly say the three magic words.
Caillou:
Sleep, sleep, sleep.
Stanley:
Okay, Caillou. You can look now.

89
Caillou:
Wow.
Stanley:
Good night. Sweet dreams.
Caillou:
Good night, Stanley.
Storyteller:
Caillou was gently rocked to sleep by the sounds of the train rolling through the night.

73. Under Sail

Storyteller:
It was a perfect day for a walk in the park. "Boat". And it was a perfect day for sailing
boats.
Mommy:
Not so fast Caillou.
The boy:
Hi, that's my boat. It's nice.
Storyteller:
Caillou didn't really want to give the boat back. He wished he has a big boat just like it to
float on the lake.
Caillou:
I want a boat like that.
Mommy:
You have lots of nice boats of your own at home. Come on.
Daddy:
It's time to launch the fleet captain!
Daddy:
What's the matter Caillou?
Caillou:
Plastic boats are for babies. I want a big boat like the one at the lake.
Mommy:
Hop in.
Caillou:
Can we go to the lake and watch the boats, mommy?
Mommy:
We're going some place even better. You and Rosie are going to spend the day with
Grandma and Grandpa.
Caillou:
Where's Grandpa?
Grandpa:
Hi, Caillou. I'm down here trying to make room for my new work-bench. Would you like to
help, Caillou?
Caillou:

90
What is it?
Grandpa:
It's your dad's old kiddie pool. Why, with a bit of patching up this will be great for you and
Rosie.
Caillou:
What's in here, Grandpa?
Grandpa:
Oh, all kinds of old stuff. Maybe even dinosaur bones.
Grandpa:
You know, I bet this still has some life in it?
Caillou:
A boat.
Grandpa:
Oh, my old boat. Your dad helped me make that when he wasnt much older than you.
Caillou:
It's just like the ones at the lake. Let's go sail it.
Grandpa:
It's a little worse for wear, Caillou. I don't know if itll sail.
Caillou:
Please, Grandpa. I want to sail it now.
Grandpa:
Well, I did build it to last. I guess we can give it a try.
Caillou:
It's working.
Grandpa:
That's alright. Every good sailor has setbacks, but if we put some work into fixing this boat
up. It will be as good as new.
Storyteller:
Caillou and Grandpa spend all afternoon working on the boat.
Grandma:
Why don't you paint a C for Caillou?
Grandpa:
It's perfect.
Caillou:
Let's go to the lake now.
Grandpa:
Oh, we can't sail it yet, Caillou. We have to wait for the paint to dry.
Storyteller:
Caillou felt like the paint was taking forever to dry.
Caillou:
Is it dry yet?
Grandpa:
I guess it's probably dry now.
Caillou:

91
Yeah.
Grandpa:
oh, that's okay. We'll make our own lake. Come on!

74. Farmer Caillou skies

Caillou:
What next mommy?
Storyteller:
One morning, Caillou was helping mommy make his favorite breakfast--pancakes.
Mommy:
We need to add an egg.
Caillou:
I can get it, mommy.
Caillou:
I don't see any eggs.
Mommy:
Ah-oh, looks like run out of eggs and I can't make pancakes without an egg.
Storyteller:
This was very unlucky. Caillou had really been looking forward to those pancakes.
Caillou:
No pancakes?
Rosie:
No pancakes?
Caillou:
Let's go buy some eggs, daddy.
Daddy:
Good thinking Caillou. I can be back with a dozen eggs in no time.
Mommy:
Maybe since we only need one egg. We can borrow it from Mr. Hinkle. Why don't you go
and ask, Caillou?
Mr. Hinkle:
Why? Hello, Caillou.
Caillou:
Can I have an egg?
Mr. Hinkle:
Well, sure! That's a farm fresh egg.
Storyteller:
Caillou had never seen a brown egg before.
Mr. Hinkle:
Have you ever been to a farm, Caillou?
Mr. Hinkle:
Would you like to visit one?
Caillou:

92
Yes.
Storyteller:
It looked like this might a lucky day for Caillou after all. He was going to get his pancakes
and maybe a trip to a farm.
Mommy:
It's really nice of you to take Caillou to your sister's farm, Mr. Hinkle.
Mr. Hinkle:
Oh, no trouble. Sis can always use some extra help around the old place.
Mommy:
Finish up your pancakes, Caillou? It's time to go.
Caillou:
All done.
Mr. Hinkle:
Are you ready to be a farmer for the day, Caillou?
Mr. Hinkle:
This is where I lived when I was a little boy.
Storyteller:
Caillou had trouble imagining that Mr. Hinkle had ever been a little boy.
Mr. Hinkle:
Hi, Sis.
Nancy:
Why? Hello Polly. And who have you got with you?
Mr. Hinkle:
This is my neighbor Caillou. He's come to help you out and be a farmer for the day.
Nancy:
Well, pleased to meet you, farmer Caillou. I'm Mr. Hinkle's big sister, Nancy.
Mr. Hinkle:
Oh, Nan. You've gone and covered me with flour.
Caillou:
Ha-ha.
Nancy:
Well, of course I did, Polly, I'm baking a pie. Come on in and you can help.
Caillou:
Like this?
Nancy:
You need more flour on your pie and less on your face.
Caillou:
What next?
Nancy:
We need some apples for the filling.
Caillou:
I can get them. Um, where are they?
Mr. Hinkle:
I'll show you Caillou. Follow me.

93
Storyteller:
Caillou thought if he could just jump a little higher he could reach the apple.
Mr. Hinkle:
Looks like you need a boost.
Storyteller:
There were so many beautiful apples. Caillou didn't know which one to pick next.
Mr. Hinkle:
How about that one?
Storyteller:
But with Mr. Hinkle's help he picked the nicest apples on the tree for their pies.
Caillou:
Like this?
Nancy:
That's right.
Storyteller:
Caillou couldn't wait to taste the pie.
Caillou:
When it'll be ready to eat
Nancy:
Oh, not for a little while. How do you like to help feed the chickens while it's baking..
Mr. Hinkle:
I bet you've never fed chickens before, have you?
Caillou:
Sometimes I feed my cat Gilbert.
Mr. Hinkle:
Well then you are the right man for the job.
Storyteller:
Caillou didn't like the chickens chasing him.
Caillou:
Help.
Storyteller:
It frightened him
Mr. Hinkle:
I guess Gilbert isn't as pushy as a bunch of hungry chickens.
Mr. Hinkle:
This will keep them away. Shoo!
Caillou:
Shoo, shoo.
Caillou:
Hay, come back.
Storyteller:
Now it was Caillou's turn to chase the chickens.
Caillou:
I found it.

94
Storyteller:
Caillou couldn't believe his eyes. The egg had appeared like magic.
Caillou:
Where did the egg come from?
Mr. Hinkle:
It came from the chicken. That's where eggs come from. This was my favorite place when I
was a kid.
Caillou:
Why?
Mr. Hinkle:
Mostly because of this swing. You are going to love it.
Caillou:
Ha-ha, higher, higher. Weee~` I wanna do it again. Ahaaa.
Storyteller:
Caillou was frightened by the angry cat. Gilbert never hissed him like that.
Mr. Hinkle:
It's okay. You probably scared her more than she scared you.
Caillou:
Look.
Mr. Hinkle:
Well, I'll be. She was just worried about her kittens. If we're very quiet we can sit and
watch for a while.
Storyteller:
Caillou have never seen such small kittens before. He thought he could watch them forever.
Nancy:
Polly, Caillou
Mr. Hinkle:
Come on, Caillou.
Storyteller:
Caillou liked the kitten so much. He didn't want to leave it.
Caillou:
Can I keep the kitten, Mr. Hinkle?
Mr. Hinkle:
It's very young and it still needs to be with its mother. And you have Gilbert waiting for you
back home. Come on, I smell pie.
Storyteller:
Caillou thought that it was the best pie he had ever tasted. And he made it himself.
Mommy:
You're back. How was the farm?
Mr. Hinkle:
Caillou was a big help. He fed the chickens and picked apples and made his own pie.
Caillou:
And I got to hold a baby kitten.
Mommy:

95
Farm fresh eggs, how wonderful.
Caillou:
No, mommy. Chickens fresh.

Storyteller: Caillou had never seen so much food before. He didnt know where to begin.
Caillou: I want to carry my plate.
Mommy: Okay, but be careful. Walk very slowly.
Caillou: Ah-ah-chu, oh.
Mommy: Its all right sweetie. Someone will clean it up. But I think I should carry it back to

with himself.
Daddy: Dont you like your food, Caillou?
Caillou: Im not hungry anymore. Can we go home now?
Daddy: I think I see something that might cheer you up.
Caillou: Doesnt mommy get the cake with candles?

76. Caillou to the Rescue

Storyteller: Caillou was having fun pretending to be a lion tamer. The only problem was he
couldnt get his lion to cooperate.
Caillou: come on, Gilbert. Jump. Like this. Ta-da, Oh, come back. Ha-ha, there you are.
Storyteller: Caillou was a little scared by the dog, but Gilbert was much more afraid.
Caillou: Gilbert. Come down, Gilbert. The dog is gone now. Look, its your favorite mousy
mouse.
Storyteller: He was so high up in the tree. Caillou worried that Gilbert might fall.
Caillou: Oh, no.
Daddy, help.
Daddy: This ladder isnt tall enough to reach Giblert.
Caillou: We have to get him down.
Daddy: And we will. But we have to get help from someone with a taller ladder.
Storyteller: Caillou sure was excited to see the fire fighters in their big red truck.
Daddy: Eric? Is that you? It sure is. Hey, long time no see.
Caillou: You know my daddy?
Storyteller: Caillou was impressed that daddy knew the fire fighter.
Eric: I sure do. Your dad and I used to play together when we were kids. My name is Eric.
Whats yours?
Caillou: Caillou.
Eric: Its nice to meet you, Caillou. Now, lets get your kitty down from the tree.
Eric: Okay, Stacy. Lets set the ladder up. Well have him down in a jiffy.
Stacy: You dont mind if I borrow this, do you? Thanks.
Stacy: There you are, Gilbert. Come here. Look, what Ive got.
Storyteller: Caillou was amazed at how high the fire truck ladder could go, up, up and up!
He can never climb as this high as Stacy could.
Stacy: got you.
Caillou: Yea.
Caillou: Ha-ha, Gilbert.
Daddy: Thank you so much.
Eric: My pleasure.
Caillou: Can I look inside the truck?
Eric: I have a better idea. Why dont you come to the fire station for a tour if thats okay for
your daddy?
Caillou: Can we?
Daddy: That would be fun.

97
Caillou: Can we ride in the truck?
Eric: Haha, no problem.
Caillou: Yea.
Caillou: What does this button do?
Eric: That one rings the fire bell on top of the truck. Go ahead, Caillou. Push it.
Caillou: I can do it myself, daddy.
Storyteller: Caillou wanted to be a big boy and get out of the truck like his father and Eric.
But it wasnt as easy as he thought.
Daddy: Ennn, its a little too far down, Caillou. Let me help you.
Eric: This is where we keep our coats and boots. Its important to have them ready, so we
can move quickly and in an emergency.
Caillou: These boots are really big and heavy.
Eric: Ha-Ha, why dont you try one on for size?
Caillou: Uh-uh.
Daddy: Ha-ha, Maybe you are not quit big enough to fill the fire fighters boots.
Eric: Ha-ha, yet.
Eric: Its also very important to keep the truck in tiptop shape by the all times.

Caillou: Ah, It was easy.
Grandma: Goodnight, Caillou. Go right to sleep now.
Caillou: Okay, Grandma. Goodnight.
Storyteer: Caillou was so excited about being on the top bunk that he had a hard time
sleeping. Things looked very different from up there. The floor looked awfully far away.

Caillou: Rosie? You awake? Dont worry Teddy. Oh, no.

Rosie: Teddy?
Caillou: Rosie, help me get Teddy.
Rosie: Okay.
Storyteller: Rosie was too scared to climb the ladder. The top bunk seemed very high up.

Daddy: Thats a great idea, Caillou. She would love that.
Caillou: Here mommy. Its for you.
Daddy: Caillou found it on the vacant lot at the end of the street.
Mommy: Thank you, Caillou. Its lovely. Mr. Hinkle mentioned that the lot was sold and they

Mommy: The tractors will be there to build a new house, Caillou. Were going to have new
neighbors.
Daddy: Thats a big tractor.

see the construction site again.
Caillou: Beep~~~beep! Look out! Im backing up. Vroom.
Mommy: Come on, Caillou. Were going to the park. Lets go.
Caillou: Can we walk by the tractors Mommy?
Mommy: oh, I dont see why not? Weve been there almost everyday this week.
Storyteller: as the days went by there was so much neat stuff to see. Tractors, cement
trucks and construction workers hammering away that Caillou forgot all about the new
neighbors until one day when they saw a family moving in.
Caillou: Mommy the new people are moving in. I saw someone in the window. Will the new
boy want to play at the park with me, mommy?
Mommy: what the boy, Caillou?
Caillou: The boy in the window at the new house.
Mommy: I didnt realize they had a boy. Maybe we should go and meet our new neighbors.
Mommy: Hi, we thought we'd stop by and welcome you to the neighborhood. I made you a
little something.
: Thats very kind of you. I think the boys out back. Im sure they'd love to meet you.

suddenly felt a little shy.

Storyteller: Caillou was waiting for something and he didnt want to leave the window right
away.
Daddy: now, please.
Caillou: what is it, Daddy?
Daddy: I need you to put away your toys so I can vacuum your room.
Storyteller: the faster Caillou finished cleaning up the faster he could get back to the
window. Caillou was waiting for the school bus to arrive. He couldnt wait until he was old
enough to go to school.
Caillou: hi, Sara.
Daddy: Caillou, I have one more thing for you to do. Caillou, are you there?
Caillou: Coming.

Sara: hi, Caillou. My classs having a little brother and sister today at school and since I

Stotyteller: The next day, Caillou and mommy were packing for Caillous first day at school.
Mommy: I think we have everything Pencils, paper, lunch.
Cailloiu: we forgot this. I have to bring my dinosaur to school.

to do at school. Hell just get lonely in your bag.
Caillou: okay.
Caillou: the school is big.

Sara: Come on, Caillou. Thats the bell. We have to go to assembly.
Mommy: okay, Caillou. Ill pick you up after lunch. Have a good day at school.

Storyteller: Caillou was happy that he was going to school with Sara. He felt like a very big
boy.

101
Caillou: wow.

place.
Sara: put your backpack here.
Caillou: can we play ball in the classroom?
Sara: we are not allowed to play with balls inside the school.
Caillou: where is everybody?
Sara: they are in the gym for assembly. Come on! We have to go.
Caillou: whats assembly?
Sara: its when the principle talks to us. Youll see.
Caillou: whats the gym?
Caillou: Come on, Sara. Lets play.
Sara: Caillou, we cant play now. The principle is about to speak. We have to sit down and
listen.
Storyteller: Caillou didnt realize there were so many rules at school. He didnt want to sit
down. He wanted to continue playing.
Sara: we can play later on okay?
Caillou: where do we sit?
Sara: on the floor. Like this. Now we have to be a real quiet and listen, okay?
The principal: good morning everyone and welcome. Today is a very special day. And we
have a lot of first timers among us. For those of you that are here with your big brothers
and sisters
Sara: shh!
Caillou: But Sara, I really have to go to the bathroom.
Principal: fun-filled action-packed day.
Storyteller: after the bathroom was done and the assembly was over. Caillou and Sara went
to her classroom.
Sara: you are lucky today its a special day. Usually we only get to write on the blackboards
when the teacher asks us to.
Caillou: what was that?
Sara: the bell for recess.
Caillou: I like your school, Sara.
Sara: so do I. but I wish we had more time to play outside.
Storyteller: Caillou didnt understand why Sara wanted more time to play. He loved being in
the classroom.
Caillou: when do we read and write.
Sara: I dont think youll learn all that today. But well do a lot of fun things. Come on,
recess is over.
Cailloiu: already?
Storyteller: Caillou thought the bell rang a lot at school. Caillou loved to paint and he was
happy to find out that they painted at school too.
Caillou: Im going to draw a picture of your school.
Sara: dont forget that one day this will be your school, too. What did you bring for lunch,
Caillou.

Sara?
Sara: fried chicken, cheese, celery and a cookie. Want to switch? I like switching lunches. I
dont get to do that at home. Maybe Ill have dessert first.
Storyteller: Caillou loved being at school with Sara. He wasnt able to switch lunches with
anyone at home.
Mommy: so how was school Caillou?
Caillou: I drew on the blackboard and I even switch my lunch with Sara.
Mommy: really? That sounds like fun.
Caillou: but I didnt learn how to write.
Mommy: thats because you are still too young. Dont go growing up too fast, okay?
Storyteller: Caillou couldnt wait to grow up and go to school everyday. Even though Caillou
wasnt quite ready for school yet. He was ready for one thing-nap time.

81. Caillou's Kitchen

Storyteller: Caillou's Mommy was preparing a special meal for guests that were coming for
supper that night.
Mommy: Oh dear, this doesn't look very smooth.
Caillou: Vroom. What are you doing?
Mommy: I'm cooking supper for our guests tonight.
Caillou: I want to cook too. But I want to help.
Mommy: Caillou, just wait a minute, okay? Stand back, this is hot.
Caillou: I can do it! Let me!
Mommy: Well, let's see what you can help me with. How about you wash the lettuce while I
finish this?
Caillou: Yeah!
Storyteller: Caillou was happy to help Mommy cook. He wanted to show her that he was a
big boy.
Caillou: Look Mommy! I'm washing the lettuce. Oops. Ha ha ha.
Mommy: Here, why don't you rip it up and then you can dry it, okay? Here you go. This will
make it easier. Just turn this and the spinner will dry the lettuce.
Caillou: Ah!
Daddy: How's the souffle coming along?
Mommy: Oh, it's getting there.
Caillou: I'm cooking.
Daddy: I can see that. Caillou, why don't you go play outside with Rosie now and let
Mommy finish cooking? There you go, Rosie. Stay out here and play for while, okay?
Sarah: Hi, Caillou. What're you doing?
Caillou: I was helping Mommy cook, but now I have to play outside.
Sarah: I love to cook. Let's make up some recipes.
Caillou: Okay! Let's make mud pizza.

103
Sarah: Mud pizza? Well, I guess we just need to find the right ingredients. Let's see. This
pizza needs some cheese.
Caillou: And pepperoni. We can use rocks for pepperoni. There. All finished.
Rosie: Me too!
Caillou: No, Rosie. Dinner's not ready yet.
Sarah: Right. We need to make the salad.
Caillou: We can use leaves. Now we have to wash the lettuce.
Sarah: There. All done.
Caillou: This soup is going to be good. Gilbert, stand back, this is hot. Gilbert! Gilbert!
Whoa! Sarah, look, this could be desert. Look, Mommy! We made a cake for desert!
Mommy: It looks delicious. Thank you!
Rosie: And we brought flowers too!
Mommy: They're lovely. I have just the place for them.
Caillou: They're here.
Mommy: Coming.

82. Caillou's Sea Adventure

Caillou: Gilbert, wake up. Look at my kite. Whee! I'm going to the park to fly my kite today.
Mommy: Caillou, what are you doing?
Caillou: Mommy, get dressed. You said we were going to fly my kite today, remember?
Mommy: I don't think we can, Caillou. They're calling for rain all day.
Caillou: All day?
Storyteller: Caillou was very disappointed. He was looking forward to trying out his new
kite at the park.
Daddy: What's wrong?
Caillou: I have nothing to do now.
Daddy: You could play with Rosie.
Caillou: I don't want to play with Rosie.
Daddy: Hey, I have an idea. Maybe you could have a friend over.
Caillou: Leo! Hello? Can I speak to Leo, please? Oh! thank you. Bye. He's not there.
Storyteller: Caillou was discouraged. He had no one to play with and nothing to do.
Daddy: Cheer up, with a little imagination, I'm sure you can find something to do.
Mommy: I can't see Rosie. Where is she?
Rosie: Caillou! Peek-a-boo!
Caillou: Hey, this is my drawing.
Mommy: Caillou, she was just looking at it.
Rosie: Pirate!
Storyteller: The pirate drawing and Mommy playing with the sheets gave Caillou an idea of
what he could do.
Caillou: Okay, Rosie, you can have it.
Daddy: Did you find something to do yet?

104
Caillou: Uh-huh!
Daddy: That's strange. I could have sworn there was a... Caillou?
Storyteller: Caillou was building his very own pirate ship. He thought it would be fun to
pretend to be the captain of his very own ship.
Caillou: Hey! Gilbert, you wrecked my ship!
Rosie: Me, too!
Caillou: Rosie, no! It's mine! Rosie, let go!
Mommy: What's going on in here? I'll settle this right now.
Caillou: Huh? But I was playing with it.
Mommy: You can only play in the living room if you two play nicely, okay?
Caillou: Rosie, this is my game.
Rosie: Moo, moo!
Caillou: Hey!
Rosie: Meow!
Caillou: Look Rosie, I'm a fish swimming in the sea.
Storyteller: Caillou was having fun now playing with Rosie. He liked the fact that he could
always make her laugh.
Caillou: Wait, Rosie! I know where I can get a fish. Look, there's a fish in the water. Oh no!
Gilbert's a shark. He wants to eat the fish.
Rosie: Ha ha, Gilbert!
Caillou: We're safe now, but we have to build a boat.
Rosie: Cat, fish, ha ha.
Caillou: I better swim to shore and get some stuff for our boat.
Rosie: Boat! Boat!
Daddy: Hey, Caillou! What are you up to?
Caillou: I'm in the sea. Me and Rosie are going to build a boat because Gilbert is a shark.
Mommy: Well, I haven't seen any sharks around here.
Caillou: Maybe he's hiding.
Daddy: Here, maybe you could use this to find him.
Storyteller: Caillou was having a lot of fun playing pirates. Now he was all set to build his
pirate ship with Rosie.
Caillou: Rosie, you're in the water. Let's build our boat. There! Now we can be on the look
out for sharks. Look, Rosie, an island! Maybe there's pirates.
Rosie: Pirates?
Caillou: Maybe the pirates took Gilbert. I see a pirate.
Rosie: Daddy!
Caillou: Hurry, hide from the pirate. He's gonna catch us.
Daddy: Arrr! I'm a fearless pirate. Look at this, an abandoned boat. Hmm... I think I'm
going to climb aboard. Oh no! I surrender! You caught me!
Caillou: Okay, Mr. Pirate, where's Gilbert?
Caillou: I don't know.
Mommy: Hey everyone, time for lunch.
Caillou: Can we have a picnic on my boat?
Daddy: I think your boat is a little too small, Caillou.

105
Storyteller: Caillou knew what to do. If his boat was too small, he just had to make a bigger
one.
Caillou: Mommy, can we use the picnic blanket? Gilbert! I found you!
Mommy: All right, I guess a rainy day is a good reason to have a picnic indoors.
Caillou: Here you go, Gilbert. Tuna fish!
Storyteller: And so, on a rainy day that began with nothing to do. Caillou and his family had
a wonderful picnic by the sea.

83. The Little Bird

Storyteller: Caillou and Sarah were having a picnic in Caillou's backyard.

Caillou: Look, Sarah, ants. Why are they coming on the blanket?
Sarah: They want cookie crumbs.
Caillou: Ah. A bird. Sarah, look! It's not moving.
Storyteller: Caillou and Sarah watched the bird.
Caillou: What's wrong?
Sarah: Maybe it hurted it's wing or something. I'll go tell your mom. You stay here and
make sure it's safe.
Caillou: Is the bird hurt, Mommy?
Sarah: A cat might get it if we leave it here.
Mommy: Oh, you did the right thing to come and get me. We should never touch an animal
when it's hurt. We can use this box and slide it in so it'll be safe. There!
Caillou: Here's some grass and leaves.
Sarah: It'll feel like it's in his nest. Here's some water in case it needs a drink.
Mommy: The bird can eat this if it gets hungry. You could place it in the box next to the
bird.
Storyteller: Caillou hoped the bird would get better soon.
Sarah's Mommy: Sarah!
Sarah: I have to go, Caillou. I'll come back later to check on the bird. Bye.
Caillou: The bird didn't eat the bread yet, Mommy.
Mommy: Give it a chance to get better, sweetie.
Storyteller: Caillou was startled and excited to hear the bird chirp. He wondered if the bird
felt better.
Caillou: Mommy! Did you hear that? Are you hungry, little bird?
Mommy: Here. Why don't you hold the bread a little closer to the bird?
Caillou: No, Gilbert! Mommy, tell Gilbert to leave the bird alone.
Mommy: I'll put Gilbert in the house so the bird will be safe. And you better come in for
lunch.
Caillou: Don't worry about Gilbert. I'll protect you again if he comes back.
Mommy: If the bird isn't better by tonight, we should bring it to a bird sanctuary. They
have a special hospital to take care of it.
Caillou: Can we go visit it when it's there?

106
Mommy: We sure can.
Caillou: Mommy! The bird is gone! Maybe Gilbert got it!
Mommy: Look! Gilbert was inside the whole time.
Caillou: Phew.
Mommy: Caillou, look.
Caillou: There it is!
Mommy: We have to be very quiet and go slowly so we don't scare it.
Caillou: Oh, no! The bird's flying away!
Storyteller: Caillou was very sad that the bird flew away.
Mommy: You protected the bird and it got better. See? It's flying now all because of you.
Storyteller: Caillou felt very proud.
Mommy: We could still visit the hospital at the bird sanctuary if you want.
Caillou: Yes!

84. Lights Out

Weatherman: The weather this evening will be cold and snowy. An artic wind blowing from
the north will lower the temperature...
Caillou: Vroom, vroom, vroom, vroom! Beep, beep!
Storyteller: Caillou and Daddy didn't know it yet, but a winter storm was heading their way.
Caillou: Vroom, Gilbert. Do you want to go outside, Gilbert?
Daddy: Why don't you let him out, Caillou?
Caillou: Okay. Come on, Gilbert. Daddy, look!
Storyteller: Caillou was amazed by the snow. The wind was very strong and was blowing
the snow around in circles, making it very hard to see outside. Caillou was sure that
tomorrow would be a great day to build a snowman.
Daddy: Boy, that's some storm. The weatherman said there would be freezing rain tonight,
I'd better turn up the heat. Why don't we go and see if mom needs help setting the table?
Caillou: Okay, Daddy. Vroom. Red light! Vroom. Green light! Vroom. Red light!
Mommy: Hi, sweetie, are you getting hungry?
Caillou: Yes! Green light! Vroom.
Rosie: Wow, ha ha...
Caillou: Vroom. Okay, now we're parking.
Mommy: Oh, that's an awful storm.
Daddy: It looks like it's getting worse.
Mommy: Well, there's no use worrying about something we can't control. Hmm, why don't
you go get washed up for supper, Caillou?
Storyteller: Caillou wondered why Mommy and Daddy were so worried about the storm.
Daddy: I think we forgot the magic words. Green light!
Caillou: Vroom. Hey? Daddy?

107
Storyteller: Caillou was feeling very alone in the dark and he decided he would try and turn
the lights back on himself. Caillou didn't understand how the lights could turn off all by
themselves. When he couldn't turn them back on, he was very afraid.
Caillou: Daddy!
Daddy: I'm coming, Caillou. Stay where you are.
Caillou: The lights aren't working, Daddy.
Daddy: The storm must have caused a power failure.
Caillou: What's that?
Daddy: That's when there's no electricity, so the lights don't work.
Storyteller: Caillou didn't know that a storm could stop the lights from working. He'd never
heard about that before.
Daddy: Let's go downstairs and get the flashlights.
Rosie: Ha ha ha.
Mommy: Rosie, don't blow out the candles, sweetie. We need them to see.
Daddy: I'll go to the basement and get the flashlights and some more candles.
Caillou: I want to go with you.
Storyteller: Caillou wanted to help his Daddy find the flashlights.
Mommy: Be careful, it's pitch black down there!
Daddy: Ha ha. I guess the basement isn't the best place to keep the flashlights, huh,
Caillou?
Caillou: Be careful, Daddy.
Storyteller: Caillou was trying to be brave but he didn't like sitting alone in the dark.
Caillou: Daddy?
Daddy: It's okay, Caillou. Oops!
Caillou: Ah!
Daddy: Oh no! My, my candle is out. I'm sure the flashlights were right here somewhere.
Caillou: Daddy?
Storyteller: Caillou was frightened sitting in the dark stairwell all by himself. He couldn't
see his Daddy anymore.
Daddy: Found them!
Caillou: Ah!
Storyteller: Daddy's appearance startled Caillou at first, but he was relieved to see Daddy
with the flashlights.
Daddy: I'm sorry, Caillou. I didn't mean to scare you. Here you go, you can have one, too.
Caillou: Roar.
Daddy: Yikes! Don't do that, you're scaring me.
Caillou: Ha ha ha. Gilbert, you silly cat.
Rosie: Ha ha ha, Gilbert!
Daddy: There we go.
Caillou: Yeah! Ha ha ha.
Storyteller: Caillou was happy that there were lights again. He figured that they could have
supper now.
Caillou: When can we eat, Mommy?
Mommy: That's a good question, Caillou.

108
Daddy: I'll go get some wood and build a fire. We can heat something up in the fireplace,
just like when we're camping.
Caillou: Really?
Storyteller: Caillou couldn't imagine how they could cook with the fireplace in the living
room. He thought it would be fun to pretend the living room was a camp ground.
Caillou: I like camping in the living room, Daddy.
Daddy: Yes, it is fun, but I hope the electricity comes back on soon, the house is getting a
little chilly.
Caillou: When will the lights come back on, Daddy?
Daddy: I'm not sure, it could take some time.
Storyteller: Caillou didn't understand why it would take a long time, but right now, he
didn't mind very much.
Dadddy: I think it's time for dessert.
Caillou: What's for dessert?
Daddy: What's your favorite dessert when we go camping, Caillou?
Caillou: Marshmallows!
Rosie: Yeah!
Caillou: Is it done, yet?
Daddy: I think it is. Now blow on it, because it's very hot.
Caillou: Yum!
Daddy: I think it's bedtime.
Caillou: I don't want to go to bed, Mommy.
Daddy: I think we should all sleep down here tonight.
Caillou: Yeah! Huh?
Storyteller: Caillou was startled awake by the sound of the television, but he really wanted
to continue camping out in front of the fireplace.
Daddy: The power's back on.
Caillou: Can we still sleep here tonight, Daddy?
Daddy: Sure we can. Good night, Caillou.

85. Caillou's Check Up

Caillou: I'm going to eat you! Roar!

Leo: Roar! I'm going to eat you first!
Mommy: Leo, your mom will be here any minute to come and get you.
Leo: Okay.
Mommy: Don't forget, Caillou. We're going to the dentist this afternoon.
Leo: You're going to the dentist.
Caillou: Yeah.
Leo: My brother went to the dentist and he said it hurt him a lot.
Storyteller: Caillou was suddenly worried that the dentist might hurt him, too.
Mommy: Leo! Caillou! Come down stairs, it's time to go.

109
Caillou: I don't want to.
Storyteller: After what Leo said, Caillou decided that he didn't want to go to the dentist
after all.
Mommy: Caillou, where are you?
Caillou: Quiet, Gilbert.
Storyteller: Caillou didn't want his Mommy to find him and take him to the dentist.
Mommy: Are you playing hide and seek? Come out, come out, wherever you are. What are
you doing under there?
Caillou: I don't want to go to the dentist.
Mommy: Are you afraid?
Caillou: Leo said the dentist is going to hurt me.
Mommy: The dentist is going to clean your teeth and make sure they're growing in
properly. None of that is going to hurt sweety, I promise. Okay?
Nurse: The dentist will be with you shortly.
Mommy: Do you want to play with the boy until it's your turn?
Storyteller: Caillou didn't feel like playing. He was still feeling very nervous about what was
going to happen next.
Nurse: She's ready to see you now.
Mommy: I'll be right here waiting.
Dentist: Hi, Caillou. I'm doctor Forester. Are you ready for your check-up? I use this
toothbrush on all my giant patients and dinosaurs. Ah-ha, you do have teeth. I knew it.
Storyteller: Caillou tought the dentist was very funny.
Dentist: I'm going to clean your teeth now, Caillou. My toothbrush is a little noisy but don't
worry, it tickles. See? Can you open your mouth real wide like a dinosaur about to roar?
Caillou: Roar! Ha ha ha. That tickles.
Dentist: Very good! Are you ready for a fluoride treatment now?
Caillou: What's that?
Dentist: It'll make your teeth very strong and you can choose which flavour you
want.Cherry or bubblegum?
Caillou: Bubblegum! What's that?
Dentist: It an x-ray. I'm going to take a picture of your teeth to make sure they're growing
in properly. But you don't need to smile for this picture. You just stay still, okay? All done.
You did great, Caillou.
Caillou: Mommy, look at my teeth.
Mommy: They look so clean.
Dentist: Caillou, this is for being so brave.
Storyteller: Caillou was very proud that he wasn't afraid of the dentist anymore.
Mommy: Where are you off to in such a hurry?
Caillou: To brush my teeth.

and grandma read the book about the clown festival. Caillou enjoyed the book so much. He
forgot all about wanting to play with Leo.

Mommy: Still looking for Rosie?
Caillou: Yup!

123

with Mommy and Daddy.

Caillou: See? I made a house just for Rosie.
Caillou: Rosie!
Mommy: I guess Rosie likes the house you made her, Caillou.
Caillou: Can I play in the house too?
Rosie: Yeah!
Mommy: Maybe you two should stick to playing hide and go seek.
Caillou: Can I hide now?
Daddy: I think your little sister will have a hard time finding you.
Mommy: We'll go hide down stairs and you can come and find us, okay?
Daddy: Oh no! I nearly forgot my surprise.
Mommy: Come on, you two, let's go check out Daddy's surprise, then we can play hide and
seek.

Mommy: Gingerbread cookies!
Caillou: Yum!
Rosie: Yay!

better playing with Mommy and Daddy too.

101. Caillou's Clouds

Storyteller: Caillou was going for a picnic in the park with Mommy and Rosie. He was very
excited to try out his kite.
Mommy: Ah, this looks like a good spot. What do you say we have our picnic here?
Caillou: Okay!
Rosie: Yay!
Caillou: I'm going to fly my kite.
Mommy: Okay, but just for a little while. We're going to have lunch soon.
Caillou: Why isn't it working, Mommy?
Mommy: First, you have to make sure that the string is long enough. There, that should do
it. Take a few steps back.
Caillou: Let go, Mommy! Aw!
Mommy: Maybe try to run a little bit. Ready? Set? Go!
Caillou: Oh no!
Storyteller: Caillou was disappointed that his kite wasn't working.

124
Caillou: My kite is broken.
Mommy: It doesn't look broken. There's just no wind right now, and a kite needs wind to
stay up in the sky.
Caillou: But I want to fly my kite now.
Mommy: Well, if we wait a little bit, it might just get windy. Who wants some lunch?
Storyteller: Caillou felt bored.
Caillou: I wish it would be windy.
Mommy: One way to tell if the wind has come back is by looking at the clouds. See how still
they are?
Caillou: Mommy, look, there's a dinosaur in the sky. Roar! Oh no! He's coming to get us!
Mommy: Look over there. That cloud looks like a big bowl of ice cream.
Caillou: I'm going to eat some. Watch!
Storyteller: Caillou was having so much fun looking at the clouds that he forgot all about
his kite.
Caillou: There's a big tree! Look! There's a train! Choo, choo! Go get it, Rosie!
Rosie: Choo, choo!
Caillou: Mommy, push me, too! I'm going to touch the sky! Whoa! The clouds look like
bubbles in a bubble bath.
Mommy: Ooh! I think it's starting to get windy. See? look at the sky. The clouds are
blowing away.
Caillou: Bye, clouds
Rosie: Bye-bye!
Mommy: Caillou, I bet this would be a good time to try out...
Caillou: My kite! Where did my kite go? Hey, come back! Gotcha! Watch, Mommy. Mommy!
Mommyh: Let's try to let the kite find the wind on it's own. If we take our time, I'm sure it
will work. Ready?
Caillou: Look! It's flying! I want it to touch the clouds.

102. Caillou Cleans Up

Caillou: Ah! Hi, little birdie!

Storyteller: Caillou was very excited, he'd seen the cardinal before, but this morning he saw
something extra special.
Caillou: A bird's nest? And an egg? Mommy! Daddy! I found a bird's nest.
Daddy: Really?
Daddy: Come and see?
Daddy: In a little bit, Caillou. Right now we have an important job to do. It's spring
cleaning time, when we clean the house from top to bottom.
Caillou: Can I help?
Storyteller: Caillou wanted to help his Mommy and Daddy and got straight to work lending
a hand.
Caillou: Hi Grandpa.

125
Grandpa: Hello Caillou. I've come to look after you and Rosie. How about we go and play
outside?
Caillou: In a little bit. Right now, I have an important job to do.
Daddy: Okay, Caillou. You can come outside with me and help me clean the windows, while
Mommy gets a start on the kitchen?
Caillou: Okay.
Daddy: Look, Caillou, a cardinal. Is that the nest you saw?
Caillou: There's an egg inside it, Daddy.
Daddy: There is? Well, we'll have to keep an eye on it then.
Caillou: Okay, Daddy. How'd you like to clean this window, Caillou? It's just the right height
for you.
Caillou: I'll do a good job.
Daddy: The first thing we have to do is get your sponge good and wet. Okay. Now wash the
window with the sponge, then put the sponge back in the water.
Storyteller: Caillou wanted to do a good job, so he took his time, and washed the window
just like his Daddy told him.
Caillou: Like this, Daddy?
Daddy: Good, Caillou. Next, we dry the window with a paper towel. And we're done! Think
you can remember all that?
Caillou: Yes.
Daddy: Do you want me to help you with the next one?
Caillou: No. I can do it. I'm washing windows, Gilbert. Hey, where's my sponge? Here it is!
Storyteller: Caillou tried to remember everything his Daddy had shown him about washing
windows.
Caillou: Gilbert! You're all wet.
Storyteller: Caillou thought that Gilbert looked pretty silly. He wanted to dry him off but
Gilbert didn't like the idea.
Caillou: Gilbert! Gilbert, you made a mess.
Storyteller: Caillou didn't have time to talk to the cardinal. Right now, he had an important
job to do, cleaning up the mess Gilbert made.
Caillou: Hi Daddy! Look at me! I'm raking!
Daddy: I thought you were washing windows, Caillou.
Caillou: I was. Now I'm raking.
Daddy: I think you've earned a glass of juice.
Caillou: Okay. Mommy?
Storyteller: Caillou had already helped Daddy, now it was Mommy's turn.
Mommy: Caillou!
Caillou: Look Mommy! I'm mopping up! Hi Daddy.
Mommy: Caillou wants to help outside again.
Daddy: Great. Do you know what happened to these paper towels?
Caillou: Gilbert got all wet from the bucket. But I couldn't find him, so I raked the leaves
and I mopped up. I want to be a big help.
Daddy: Caillou, it's very nice that you want to help, but you need to finish what you start.
Mommy: You know, maybe Caillou needs his very own chore.

126
Storyteller: Caillou like the idea of having his very own chore to do. There was just one
thing troubling him.
Caillou: What's a chore?
Storyteller: Caillou s Mommy and Daddy explained that a chore is a special job that
someone does to help around the house.
Mommy: And that's how you make a bed, Caillou
Daddy: And making your own bed can be your chore.
Caillou: Can I try it now?
Mommy: Sure, Caillou. Here, let me help you.
Caillou: No, Mommy! I want to do it.
Storyteller: Making the bed was Caillou's special chore and he wanted to do it all by
himself.
Daddy: Okay, Caillou. We'll leave you to do your chore.
Rosie: Peekaboo!
Caillou: Rosie, no!
Grandpa: Oh sorry, Caillou. Rosie and I are playing hide and seek. Would you like to join
us?
Caillou: No thanks, Grandpa. I'm doing my chore.
Grandpa: Oh, I see. Well, I'll make sure Rosie doesn't disturb you any more, Caillou. You're
busy with important work.
Caillou: Gilbert! Now I have to do my chore again. Ah!
Storyteller: Caillou was proud that he had done such a good job with his chore.
Mommy: Well, Caillou you really stuck to this chore. And you did very well.
Caillou: Oh!
Daddy: Well, what do you know? A baby cardinal.
Caillou: He needs to tidy his nest.
Daddy: His Mommy and Daddy will help him clean up.
Mommy: But some day he'll be old enough to do his own chores.
Caillou: Just like me.

107. Three's a Crowd

Mommy: Caillou! We are leaving now! Where are you?

Caillou: Im playing dinosaurs.
Mommy: You and Rosie have been inside all day. Lets go out and get fresh air.
Caillou: Can I bring my dinosaur?
Mommy: Why dont you bring your bucket and spade instead? Then you can play your
sandbox.
Caillou: Okay!
Storyteller: Caillou was happy to see Leo and Clementine right in the park too.
Caillou: Hi! Can I help you build the sandcastle?
Clementine: Watch, Caillou!

127
Leo: Look what you did!
Clementine: You broke my bucket!
Leo: We dont wanna play with you! You break everything!
Storyteller: Caillou didnt mean to break Clementines bucket. He felt very badly.
Caillou: Mommy!
Mommy: Whats the matter, Caillou?
Storyteller: Leo and Clementine dont want to play with me.
Mommy: Did you tell them you want to play with them?
Storyteller: Caillou didnt tell his Mommy that he had broke Clementines bucket. He was
sad and angry all the same time.
Caillou: I dont want to play with them anymore. I dont like them. I wanna go home!
Mommy: But we just got here, Caillou! Rosie is awake. Why dont you play for a little while
longer, Ok?
Caillou: Leo! Clementine! Come play on the slide with me.
Storyteller: Leo and Clementine were so busy playing. They didnt even notice Caillou.
Caillou didnt find there was much fun sliding alone. He really wanted his friends to play
with him.
Caillou: Mommy, can you push me on the swing too?
Mommy: Arent you a little bigger for a baby swing, Caillou?
Caillou: Can you push me on the big swing, Mommy?
Mommy: Caillou, I cant push you on the big swing right now. I push Rosie.
Storyteller: It was no use. Caillou tried and tried. But normally Mommy and his friends were
pushing him to get started. But there was one thing that Caillou could do it by himself:
Climb the monkey bars.
Caillou: Mommy! Wow!
Mommy: Why dont you go and play with Leo and Clementine, Caillou?
Caillou: Leo wont want to play with me anymore because I broke Clementines bucket.
Mommy: Well, why dont you lend your bucket?
Caillou: Here, Clementine, you can have my bucket.
Clementine: Thanks, its a nice bucket, a lot bigger than mine.
Caillou: Can I play with you?
Clementine: Sure! Sit over there! You can help me.
Storyteller: Caillou knew Leo and Clementine were once again his best friends in the whole
while world.

108. Get Well Soon

Storyteller: One of Caillous favorite things to do was to play a spaceman with his best
friend Leo.
Gilbert: Meow!
Caillou: Come back, spaceman! Oh, no! Hes gone.
Storyteller: Caillou decided Gilbert could help him find the spaceman.

128
Caillou: Shhhhh.
Storyteller: Leo didnt hear anything and checked to see if the cost was clear.
Caillou: Look!
Leo: No, you dont be. La, La
Caillou: Yeah, I win.
Storyteller: Caillou was so happy that he had won. He didnt notice Leo was hurt.
Leo: I want my Mommy.
Caillou: Whats wrong, Leo?
Leo: My foot hurts.
Storyteller: Caillou didnt know what to do. He felt scared.
Caillou: Mommy, Daddy, help! Leo hurt himself!
Daddy: Where did you hurt?
Leo: My foot! Ouch!
Storyteller: Leos foot hurt so much. But he couldnt even give them stand on it.
Mommy: Youd better take Leo home. His parents may wanna have his foot jacket to the
hospital.
Daddy: Good idea.
Caillou: The hospital?
Storyteller: Caillou was worried that his friend may have to go to the hospital.
Daddy: Dont worry, Leo. Everything will be all right.
Leo: I want my Mommy.
Caillou: Is Leo okay, Mommy?
Mommy: Well find out soon, Caillou. But first he needs to have his foot jacket to the
hospital.
Storyteller: Caillou had never been to the hospital. He was very curious about what will
happen there.
Caillou: What will happen at the hospital?
Mommy: Well, the doctor will look at Leos foot and find out whats wrong with it. He might
take a special picture according to X-ray to look at Leos bones. I have to call Leos parents
now. Would you please watch Rosie for me?
Caillou: Ok! Mommy.
Mommy: Yes, Caillou?
Caillou: Will Leo be ok?
Im sure hell be ok. But he probably wont be running around much for a little while.
Storyteller: Caillou hoped Leo would get better fast so they would be able to play spaceman
again soon.
Gilbert: Meow, meow.
Caillou: Maybe thats Daddy calling about Leo.
Mommy: Hello! Alright, see you soon, bye!
Caillou: Was that Daddy?
Mommy: Yes, it was. And he said Leo was already at home from the hospital and hes doing
fine.
Caillou: Do you think he can come over and playing now?
Mommy: I dont think so, Caillou. Leo has broken toes, so he has to stuff and been there for

129
a while.
Caillou: He will?
Mommy: Whats the matter, Caillou?
Storyteller: Caillou was disappointed he wasnt going to be able to play with Leo.
Caillou: I want Leo to come over. I want he can leave the hospital and play a spaceman.
Mommy: Well, Leo cant come over here. But you can go and visit him.
Caillou: I can?
Mommy: Sure. In fact, he asked Daddy, if you can come over to see him later. Ive been
really cheer them up.
Storyteller: Caillou couldnt wait to see Leo and had a great idea to cheer them up.
Caillou: Im going to draw Leo the best picture ever.
Storyteller: Caillou wanted to draw something for Leo. But what?
Caillou: A spaceman! Leo loves a spaceman.
Caillou: There!
Mommy: Can I see it? Thats beautiful, Caillou. Maybe you can also put and finish touching
on the cookies Im making for Leo.
Caillou: Okay! That one for Caillou.
Daddy: We cannot wait to see you.
Caillou: Me too. Im making them dry. Can we go now?
Daddy: Sure we can.
Caillou: Hi Leo!
Leo: Caillou!
Storyteller: Caillou was happy to see Leo was okay.
Leo: A spaceman! Wow, thanks!
Caillou: Here!
Leo: Wow!
Caillou: Does your foot hurt?
Leo: It did it at first. But it is ok as I only dont walk on it. I forget to tie my shoelaces. And
I tripped on them and fell.
Caillou: You went to the hospital?
Leo: Yes and the doctor took a funny picture on my toes.
Caillou: You want to play a space alien?
Leo: How?
Caillou: Im culminating for landing.
Leo: The cost was near!
Storyteller: Caillou and Leo were back to doing their lovely best, playing together.

109. Shadow Play

Storyteller: Caillou had his new neighbors: Jeffery and Jewson over for some hot dogs.
At first the twins seemed to arouse interest in each other.
Caillou: Mommy!

130
Mommy: Whats the matter, Caillou? Did you splash some mustard?
Caillou: It was
Storyteller: Caillou didnt know whether it was Jeffery or Jewson who has spotted him.
Jefferys mother: I think Jeffery knows what has happened. Thats why hes going to clear
it up. Right, Jeffery?
Thats not enough to help, Jeffery.
Caillou: Can we play a game with this flashlight, Mommy?
Jeffery: Hide and seek!
Mommy: Good idea, Jeffery! You can go play the game in the backyard.
But not for long, its going to be for dancing.
Storyteller: Caillou decided he would be it because he has the flashlight.
Caillou: One, two, three, four, five!
Storyteller: Caillou was excited about playing with his new friends. But all he saw was how
the shadows had begun cubit in the yard. He felt a bit scared until he remembered his
flashlight.
Caillou: Come out; come out, wherever you are.
Jefferys mother: Hey, you two. You hide in this place then Caillou will never come look in.
Storyteller: Although Jefferys mommy explained to play the feel man the twins had to go
back to outside.
Storyteller: Caillou heard something behind a bush. Now Caillou started to get really spont.
He faced the backyard again. And with an even big shadow, it looked like a completely new
place to him.
Caillou: I dont want to play anymore.
Mommy: Im sorry Caillou. I spooked you.
Jeffery: Mum, is Caillou a scary kid?
Jefferys mother: Of course not! In fact, he was pretty brave all by himself.
Jeffery: Is it scary here?
Storyteller: But Mommy turned on the backyard light. All the spooky shadows disappeared.
They can even keep on playing a little while. But this time Mommy would be it.
Caillou: No one can find me here. Wow.
Jeffery: Can I hide with you?
Caillou: Ok! Are you Jewson?
Jewson: No, I am!
Caillou: Quick, come in! Shhhh, well get called!
Jeffery: Im scaring, monster.
Caillou: Gilbert, Shhhh, we are hiding.
Storyteller: Caillou didnt want to be found just yet. Thanks to the game, he and the twins
are becoming fast friends.

110. A New Member of the Family

Caillou: Look, Gilbert, go away!

131
Mommy: Look, Rosie, this is you!
Rosie: Baby!
Mommy: Look! That was when Gilbert was a kitten. Come and see, Caillou!
Storyteller: Caillou loved looking at the photos with Mommy. He remembered when Gilbert
was just a little kitten when Daddy had brought him back home at very first time.
Caillou: What is it Daddy?
Daddy: Go ahead, look, its a surprise!
Caillou: Its a kitten! Its a kitten!
Daddy: I got him from the animal shelter. They said his name is Gilbert. I think it fits him
perfectly, dont you?
Caillou: Ouch! He runs away.
Daddy: Its ok, Caillou. I think he just frightened a little hes still a baby and needs time to
get used to us.
Mommy: Why dont we let him look around? Well get ready for lunch.
Caillou: Ok, Mommy! Is Gilbert scared me?
Mommy: I dont think so, Caillou! You two have plenty of time to get used to each other,
dont worry!
Daddy: I thought this one can make a good bed. He can sleep here in the kitchen.
Caillou: Why?
Daddy: If Gilbert is going to be a member of our family, he needs one bed. Ill just go out
for the blank and spaceman.
Mommy: Oh, somebody needs one diaper chat. Ill be back in a second. You finish your
lunch, Ok?
Caillou: Gilbert!
Storyteller: Caillou remembered to move slowly so Gilbert wouldnt be afraid of him. Caillou
was happy Gilbert didnt run away this time. He wanted to hold him in pattern so Gilbert
would know he was his friend.
Caillou: Gilbert, come back! Are you hungry? Gilbert, you are making a mess. Look what
Gilbert did, Daddy.
Daddy: We cannot let Gilbert on the table, Caillou! Well get ready for a little bowl and put
it on the floor, ok?
Mommy: Youd better take both of them and clean them up.
Caillou: Can I give Gilbert a bath?
Daddy: Well, cats dont normally like taking a bath. But Gilbert needs one now.
Caillou: I want to help.
Daddy: Just soon I take this fleecy collar off. We wanna get wet. Here, Caillou! Why dont
you hold Gilbert? Ill pour water at the tub.
Storyteller: Caillou was a little nervous to hold Gilbert again. He didnt like it when Gilbert
scratched his arms.
Daddy: Here, lets be round this towel. Itll be easy for your holding him. You see, its just
like holding a baby.
Hold on tight, but dont squeeze too hard.
Storyteller: Caillou love this new kitten very much.
Daddy: Ok, come on, Gilbert, time to catch you and clean up.

132
Caillou: Daddy, he runs away.
Storyteller: Gilbert had escaped again. Caillou didnt understand why Gilbert was always
running away from him.
Caillou: Hes not here, Daddy.
Daddy: Not here, either.
Caillou: There he is!
Daddy: Why dont we go real slowly, Caillou? We dont wanna scare him.
Caillou: Okay, Daddy.
Daddy: Do you see it?
Caillou: No! Hes not in his bed.
Daddy: Caillou, come here. Ive an idea.
Caillou: Why are you taking my shoes, Daddy?
Daddy: Not shoes, just laces. Here, wave this back and front on the floor. I bet youll get his
attention.
Storyteller: Caillou didnt understand why he was doing this until
Daddy: Ive never make a kitten resist the shoe is.
Caillou: He is all clean.
Daddy: He sure is.
Caillou: What is his noise, Daddy?
Daddy: Hes poring. That means hes happy.
Storyteller: Caillou was glad he could make Gilbert happy by patting him. He liked to put
Gilbert pert.
Daddy: Now we have to put back on this fleecy collar.
Caillou: Ouch!
Daddy: Youve been sneezing awfully since Gilbert got here. I hope you arent allergic to
him.
Caillou: Whats allergic?
Daddy: When people are allergic to the animals, they cant be around to them because they
make them sneeze too much and get itchy all the way eyes.
Storyteller: This worried Caillou very much. He didnt want to be allergic to Gilbert.
Daddy: Come on, Caillou. Lets go see what Mommy thinks.
Storyteller: If Caillou was allergic to cats, Mommy and Daddy would have to take Gilbert
back to the animal shelter.
Mommy: No sign of haves and your eyes are watering. Do they itch, Caillou?
Caillou: No, Mommy.
Daddy: Here, Caillou, try holding him for a while.
Caillou: Ouch! I dont want Gilbert to leave.
Mommy: I have an idea. Lets try without the fleecy collar on.
Storyteller: Caillou was really hoping he wouldnt sneeze. He didnt want to be allergic to
cats.
Daddy: Thats a good sign.
Mommy: Caillou, let Mommy hold Gilbert for a second. And you hold on this.
Caillou: Ouch!
Daddy: Thats it!

133
Storyteller: Since that was the fleecy collar that made Caillou sneeze, not Gilbert. It has
been look but would stay.
Mommy: Gilbert has grown up so fast.
Storyteller: And thats how Gilbert became a new member the family.

everything to fit in the suitcase.
Caillou: it wont close.

Caillou: I can tie my own shoes. Mommy showed me.
Daddy: Thats great. Can you show me?
Caillou: Sure. This is the tree. And the rabbit climbs the tree, and goes around like this. Oh,
it didnt work.
Daddy: Mmmm, as I remembered it, the rabbit runs around the tree, and goes down his
hole.
Daddy: Why dont you give another try?
Storyteller: Caillou couldnt remember how Mommy showed him to tie his shoe. He wanted
his daddy to do it for him.
Caillou: Help me, Daddy.

Daddy what a big sandcastle he could build.
Rosie: Rosie do it.

Caillou: My shoe came and down.
Daddy: Why dont you let me tie? (And then)You can practice this in the car.
Caillou: No, Daddy. I wanna do it.
Daddy: Ok, how about I help you? The rabbit goes around the tree and down its hole. Ok,
now pull!
Caillou: It works! I tied my shoe.
Daddy: Very good, Caillou. I know you can do it if you just kept trying.
Storyteller: Caillou was feeling very proud even though he couldnt do it all alone. He had
finally succeeded in tying his shoes.

Caillou, this is my cousin LeeWen.
LeeWen:
Hello.
Caillou:
Hello.
Sarah:
LeeWen's staying with us for chinese new year.
Storyteller:
Caillou had never heard of chinese new year before.
LeeWen:
It's the year of the tiger.
Caillou:
A tiger?
Sarah:
We call the new year the year of the tiger, but there isn't really a tiger. There is a dragon,
though.
Caillou:
A real dragon?
LeeWen:
Yes, we're going to see it tomorrow.
Sarah:
Would you like to come with us to see the dragon?
Storyteller:
At first, Caillou wasn't sure if he wanted to see a real dragon.
Caillou:
Yes!
Storyteller:
Caillou was excited that he was going to see a real dragon with Sarah and LeeWen.
Caillou:
What is it?
Sarah's Mommy:

138
It's to wish you lots of happiness in the new year.
Sarah:
And that one is to wish you a long, long life. Do you want to help me put it up? Mom,
Caillou said he wanted to see the dragon tomorrow.
Sarah's Mommy:
Is that right? Would you like to come with us to Chinatown, Caillou?
Caillou:
What's that?
LeeWen:
It's where the dragon lives.
Sarah's Mommy:
I'll give your Mommy a call and ask her if it's okay, then. Did you clean your room, Sarah?
Sarah:
Yes, Mommy. We have to clean the whole house from top to bottom for the new year.
Caillou:
Why?
Sarah:
I don't know, we just do.
LeeWen:
Did you get a special new year coin today?
Storyteller:
LeeWen felt sorry for Caillou because he didn't get a special new year coin, and asked
Sarah if they could give him one.
Sarah:
Sure.
Storyteller:
Caillou had never seen a special new year coin before.
Sarah & LeeWen:
Happy new year! Xin Nian Hao!
Sarah:
Oh, no! It looks like the year of two tigers.
Mommy:
Are you excited about going to Chinatown with your friends, Caillou?
Caillou:
Yes, Mommy.
Storyteller:
Caillou was excited about going with his friends, but he was also a bit nervous about seeing
a dragon. He wasn't so sure if he wanted to go anymore.
Mommy:
You must be a bit scared about seeing a dragon, so I thought you would like the story
about the big friendly dragon.
Storyteller:
That was one of Caillou's favorite stories.
Mommy:

139
Once upon a time there was a big friendly dragon who lived in a forest. All of his friend
would gather around...
Storyteller:
The next day, Caillou went to Chinatown with his friends for a special new year meal.
Sarah's Daddy:
Would you pass me the jiaozi, please? Um, could you pass them again, please?
Sarah's Mommy:
How would you two like some more tang yuan?
Caillou & LeeWen:
Yes.
Sarah's Mommy:
Here it comes. Go ahead, honey. Here are your jiaozi.
Sarah:
Huh, that was pretty clever, mom.
Sarah's Mommy:
I thought so, too.
Sarah:
You can use your fingers.
Caillou:
Wat's that?
Sarah:
That means the dragon's coming.
LeeWen:
The dragon's coming! the dragon's coming!
Caillou:
Wow!
Storyteller:
Caillou loved seeing the new year dragon and he wasn't scared at all because it was a
friendly dragon.
All:
Happy new year! Xin Nian Hao!
Caillou:
Happy new year!

wanted to try his skateboard.

Caillou: No.

140
Skateboarder: Just a quick try. I have to go home soon.
Caillou: Whee!
Skateboarder: That was cool.
Caillou: Yes!
Skateboarder: Got to go! Bye, Caillou!, Bye Leo!
Caillou: Bye.There's Clementine! I went on the Skateboard all by myself, Clementine.
Clementine: No, you didn't. I saw you. That boy was holding onto you.
Leo: Clementine's stupid.
Caillou: Yeah, you're stupid.
Clementine: No, I'm not!
Storyteller: Caillou and Leo were very excited by what they had seen and done. They didn't
realize how much they had hurt Clementine's feelings.
Caillou: Look at me, Rosie. I'm cool! Stupid cubes!
Rosie: Stupid! Stupid!
Mommy: Rosie! Where did you learn that word?
Rosie: Stupid!
Mommy: That's not a very nice word, Rosie. Hello? Yes. Hi, how are you? Oh! Don't worry,
I'll be sure to tell him. Okay, bye. Caillou, Rosie has been saying a word that's not very nice.
Do you know the word I mean?
Caillou: Yes, Mommy.
Mommy: And Clementine's Mommy just called. She was telling me about your afternoon in
the park. Apparently, you and Leo weren't very nice to Clementine.
Caillou: But Leo and I were just playing, Mommy.
Mommy: I don't think that's a very good game to play. You hurt Clementine's feelings.
Caillou: I didn't mean to.
Mommy: I think you owe Clementine an apology.
Caillou: Can I call Clementine, Mommy? It's ringing. Clementine? It's me, Caillou. Sorry
about calling you stupid.
Storyteller: Caillou had apologized to Clementine and they were both very happy. And as
luck would have it, the skateboarder was there too.
Caillou: That's cool!
Skateboarder: Hi, Caillou! Hey, Clementine, you want to try?
Caillou: Yeah! Clementine!

124. Caillou Meets Robbie

Storyteller: Caillou was so happy to be in the park on such a beautiful day.
Caillou: Look, Mommy! I'm swinging!
Mommy: Wow! You're gonna touch the treetops pretty soon.
Caillou: Push me!
Rosie: Me too!
Mommy: Ready?
Rosie: Yeah!
Caillou: I'm going to play in the sandbox.
Mommy: Okay. Rosie and I will be right over here.

141
Storyteller: Caillou wanted to play with the boy, but he felt a little shy.
Caillou: Can I play?
Storyteller: Caillou didn't understand why the boy was ignoring him.
Caillou: Hello? Mommy, the boy ran away.
Mommy: Let's go back and see what was the matter, okay? That's a pretty big castle. Hi.
Nice to meet you. This is Caillou and Rosie.
Robbie's Mommy: It's nice to meet you, too. This is my son, Robbie. We just moved to the
neighborhood.
Caillou: He won't play with me.
Robbie's Mommy: It's not that, Caillou. Robbie didn't see you come up behind him. He was
surprised when you tapped his shoulder because he's deaf.
Caillou: What's deaf, Mommy?
Mommy: Well, deaf is, when your ears don't work and you can't hear like other people can.
Robbie's Mommy: It's kind of like when you're wearing earmuffs and can't hear that well.
Storyteller: Caillou didn't really understand what they meant. All he knew was that he
wanted to play.
Caillou: I'm going to make a big hole.
Mommy: Okay. we'll be right over here.
Caillou: Can I use your shovel?
Storyteller: Caillou thought that if he spoke louder, maybe Robbie would hear him.
Caillou: Can I use your shovel?
Storyteller: Caillou tried to show Robbie what he wanted to do.
Caillou: Stop that! Let go! Mommy!
Mommy: What is it, Caillou?
Caillou: He's not letting me dig my hole.
Mommy: Why don't you try helping Robbie build his castle. I bet it would be really good if
you both worked on it together.
Caillou: Here!
Storyteller: Caillou and Robbie were starting to have fun playing together. He didn't
understand why Robbie was moving his fingers around. He thought it was a game.
Caillou: Whee! Wow!
Mommy: Caillou!
Robbie's Mommy: Are you all right?
Caillou: I fell off the see-saw.
Storyteller: Caillou didn't hurt himself, but he was very upset.
Mommy: You're okay now. How about an ice-pop? Would that make you feel better?
Caillou: Yes! Pink! I want pink!
Mommy: One cherry and one orange, please.
Caillou: Mommy, what's Robbie doing?
Mommy: I think he's saying it's cold.
Caillou: Wanna trade? Mommy, can Robbie come over to our house and play?
Mommy: Sure, if it's okay with his Mommy.
Robbie's Mommy: That's a nice idea, Caillou.
Mommy: How about tomorrow afternoon?

142
Robbie's Mommy: Great! See you then. It was nice meeting you, Caillou. Bye.
Caillou: Bye! Bye, Robbie! Mommy, what was Robbie doing with his fingers?
Mommy: That's sign language. Some deaf people use their hands to talk.
Rosie: Cookie!
Mommy: That must be Evelyn.
Caillou: And Robbie!
Robbie's Mommy: Hi, everyone!
Caillou: Hi! Come on!
Robbie's Mommy: Robbie loves to draw. Do you like drawing pictures, Caillou?
Caillou: That's a rocket ship. I'm going to be a space man. I want that one!
Storyteller: Caillou felt bad that he had broken Robbie's crayon. He tried to stick it back
together, but it didn't work. Caillou tried to copy what Robbie was doing, but it was hard.
Caillou: Gilbert! We're cats! Meow, meow! Look, a bird!
Storyteller: Caillou and Robbie were having so much fun pretending to be cats and birds,
that they didn't ever want to stop.
Mommy: Hey, you two! We hate to interrupt, but it's time to go.
Caillou: No! I want Robbie to stay.
Robbie's Mommy: Don't worry, Caillou. Robbie will come back and visit soon. Or maybe you
can come over to our house next.
Caillou: What's he saying?
Robbie's Mommy: That's the sign for friend. Robbie is saying that you are his friend. You
sign the word like this.
Caillou: Look, Robbie!
Storyteller: Caillou felt happy that he had made a new friend, and proud that he learned
how to say it in a whole new way.

125. The Pinata

Storyteller: One day, Caillou got up extra early.
Mommy: Caillou, breakfast!
Storyteller: He was waiting for the mail, because he was expecting a letter from his friend
Xavier.

was sure that was his letter.

fiesta.
Caillou: What's that?
Mommy: It's called a pinata.
Caillou: What's a pinata?
Mommy: Well, it's a kind of game. It's got a surprise inside.
Mommy: What kind of surprise?
Daddy: Well, if Mommy told you that, it wouldn't be a surprise, would it?
Mommy: It's a very nice surprise.
Caillou: Tell me, Mommy.
Mommy: It'll be much more fun to find out when you go to the party, don't you think?
Leo: Hey, Caillou!
Caillou: Hi, Leo!
Xavier's Daddy: It's time for the pinata, everybody!
Xavier: There's a big surprise inside the pinata.
Caillou: What is the surprise?
Xavier's Daddy: Well, if you hit the pinata just right with this stick, it will burst open and
you'll find out.
Storyteller: Caillou wasn't sure where the pinata was, but he loved playing the game.
Caillou: Wow!
Storyteller: It was Clementine's turn next. And then Xavier's.
Xavier's Daddy: This is getting very exciting. The pinata almost broke that time.
Caillou: I can do it!
Kids: Go! Go! You can do it! Go! Go!
Storyteller: Caillou could hear the sound of the surprise, and then he could see the surprise.
The pinata was full to bursting with candies.
Kids: Candies! Yeah!

126. Caillou's Promise

Caillou: Rosie, don't! Mommy! Mommy, I don't want Rosie to play in my sandbox.
Rosie: Waaahhh!
Mommy: Okay you two, that's enough. Caillou, you have to play nicely with your little
sister. The sandbox is for both of you.
Caillou: But...
Mommy: No buts. I have to go out now and I want you to promise me that you will let
Rosie play with you.
Storyteller: Caillou was upset because he didn't think Mommy was being fair. After all,
Rosie had started it.
Mommy: Promise?

144
Caillou: Okay.
Daddy: Bye, honey, have a nice day.
Mommy: Bye. Oh, do me a favor and clean up the kitchen? Promise?
Daddy: I promise, see you later. Well, I'd better get to it. Do you want to help me wash
them, Caillou?
Caillou: Gilbert. Gilbert! No cats on the table!
Daddy: Why don't you let Gilbert outside?
Caillou: Come on, Gilbert.
Storyteller: Now that Caillou was alone, he thought it would be a good time to play with his
cars.
Caillou: All set!
Daddy: You're ready to wash, Caillou? Where did he go, Rosie?
Rosie: Caillou!
Daddy: Caillou? Didn't you want to help me wash the dishes?
Caillou: I'm playing and I don't want Rosie to play in the sandbox with me.
Daddy: Well, do you remember the promise that you made to Mommy? You have to share
the sandbox with Rosie, right? It's very important not to break a promise, Caillou.
Why don't we let Rosie play a while and we can do the dishes.
Rosie: Rosie play!
Caillou: Okay, Rosie, you can play for a little while.
Storyteller: Caillou was having a lot of fun helping Daddy, even though he was mostly only
playing with the bubbles.
Daddy: Looks like you need to be dried off too. There! Now that the job's done! What do
you say we go to the park?
Caillou: Yeah!
Storyteller: Caillou was very happy to be playing with his friends in the sandbox. He was
especially happy that Rosie wasn't there to destroy everything.
Caillou: Vroom, vroom, vroom! Beep!
Jason: We're going to the circus today.
Caillou: The circus?
Jeffrey: Yeah! Our mom's taking us after lunch.
Storyteller: Caillou loved going to the circus. He hadn't been to the circus in a very long
time.
Jason: There's a big tent!
Jeffrey: And an elephant! It's huge!
Jason: Are you going to the circus too?
Storyteller: Caillou didn't know if his parents were going to bring him to the circus. But he
sure hoped they would.
Caillou: Daddy, can we go to the circus too?
Daddy: What circus, Caillou?
Caillou: Jason and Jeffrey are going to the circus. They say there's a big tent and an
elephant.
Rosie: Elephant!

145
Daddy: I'm sorry, Caillou, I wasn't aware there was a circus in town. But we can't go today.
Maybe another day, okay?
Caillou: Can we go tomorrow?
Daddy: When Mommy gets home, I promise to ask her what she thinks about all of us going
together, okay?
Caillou: My daddy promised to take me tomorrow.
Jeffrey: You can come with us today.
Storyteller: Caillou thought that was a great idea. Going to the circus with the twins today
was much better than having to wait until tomorrow.
Jeffrey: But we have to ask Mommy.
Caillou: Promise?
Jeffrey: Bye, Caillou!
Jason: See you later!
Storyteller: Caillou was very excited. He was sure he was going to the circus today with
Jason and Jeffrey.
Daddy: Caillou, slow down, you're eating too quickly.
Caillou: I have to hurry, Jason and Jeffrey are coming to get me.
Daddy: Caillou, please don't talk with your mouth full.
Caillou: I have to hurry, Jason and Jeffrey are coming to get me.
Daddy: They are?
Caillou: They invited me to go to the circus today.
Rosei: Me too!
Caillou: No, Rosie, they're my friends and your not coming.
Rosie: Waaahhh!
Daddy: Caillou, that's not very nice. And the boys' mother didn't say anything to me at the
park, so I don't think you'll be going with them.
Caillou: But they promised! Waaahhh!
Storyteller: Caillou was very upset. He was sure that the twins would bring him to the
circus. He didn't understand why they would promise to take him and then not do it.
Daddy: You're very upset, aren't you, Caillou?
Caillou: They promised, Daddy.
Daddy: And I told you that it's very important not to break a promise, didn't I? Well, I think
the boys promised something a little too quickly. I think they forgot to ask their Mommy
first.
Caillou: Why?
Daddy: We all forget sometimes. Besides, they're your friends and I'm sure they really
wanted to bring you with them.
Caillou: But I want to go to the circus.
Daddy: I know you do. And we will.
Caillou: Maybe that's them!
Mommy: Hi, Caillou!
Storyteller: He was disappointed that it wasn't the twins coming to get him.
Mommy: Caillou? Why the long face? Did you know that the circus was in town? I saw the
big tent they put up on the way home.

146
Daddy: Caillou knows about it.
Mommy: Did you guys have a nice day?
Daddy: Yes, Caillou helped me with the dishes.
Caillou: And I let Rosie play in the sandbox, just like I promised.
Mommy: I know, let's go to the circus!
Caillou: Really? Now? Rosie, come on! We're going to the circus!
Rosie: Yeah!
Storyteller: Caillou was very happy that he was going to the circus, and that he didn't have
to wait until tomorrow after all.

for the afternoon.

warm day?
Caillou: Look, Grandma!
Mommy: Caillou wanted to show you his new shirt.
Caillou: Do you like it?
Grandma: It's wonderful! Blue suits you, Caillou.
Mommy: I'd better be going. See you in a bit.
Caillou: Bye! See? It's got a pocket too.
Grandma: So it has! Why don't we go inside and celebrate your fancy new T-shirt with a
little snack?
Caillou: Okay! We went to a store. I picked it myself from a shelf, way up high. Oh no!
Grandma: That's okay, Caillou. It was an accident.
Caillou: Grandma, my shirt!
Grandma: A little stain remover should do the trick. Let's give it a try. But first, let's go and
find you something else to wear.
Caillou: Ha ha ha, I look funny.
Grandma: It's a little on the long side, but I think you look very handsome in Grandpa's
shirt. Now, let's go tackle that stain.
Caillou: I want to do it. It's still there.
Grandma: I'm sorry, Caillou. I've tried everything but the stain just won't come out.
Storyteller: Caillou was upset. Now that his shirt was stained, he didn't want to wear it
anymore.
Caillou: I don't like juice.

150
Grandma: Here, let's put it in the recycling bin. I have an idea. We could recycle your shirt
into something extra special. All we have to do is add some more stains.
Caillou: More?
Storyteller: Caillou didn't understand what Grandma meant.
Grandma: Then we tie knots like this and it'll make a pretty pattern, you'll see.
Caillou: Pretty patterns?
Grandma: Uh-huh, hand me the T-shirt. Now we'll dye it with the grape juice. Why don't
you put it in?
Caillou: Ha ha ha! Okay!
Caillou: When it's dry, you can put it back on. This time you can surprise Mommy with your
extra special shirt.
Caillou: It doesn't look special.
Storyteller: Caillou thought his shirt looked very strange. He was beginning to wish he
could have his old shirt back again.
Grandma: Caillou! Mommy's here.
Caillou: Here I am!
Mommy: Caillou! Your shirt!
Caillou: It got juice on it, so Grandma and me recycled it. See? It's special now.
Mommy: It certainly is. It's the brightest shirt I've ever seen!
Grandma: It's a one-of-a-kind shirt. No one else will have one like it.
Storyteller: Caillou thought his shirt looked even better than before. He couldn't wait to go
home and show Rosie and Daddy.

130. A Helping Hand

Storyteller: Caillou was spending the day with Grandma. He was very happy because
Grandma was babysitting Caillou's favorite dog Rover.
Caillou: Rover, fetch!
Grandma: Caillou, can you help me put this in the picnic basket?
Caillou: Are we going on a picnic, Grandma?
Grandma: No, but we are going out. Would you like to come and visit some friends of mine
today?
Caillou: Can we bring Rover?
Grandma: I always do. My friends love to see Rover. And they'll be even happier to meet
you. I speak about you all the time.

taken care of.
Caillou: You're old, Grandma. How come you don't live there?
Grandma: Ha ha ha! I'm still young enough to look after myself and Grandpa. But I like to
stop by with some baked goods and help out a bit. It's fun, you'll see.
Caillou: Rover, wait!

151
Grandma: Rover loves coming here. All my friends love him. Hold on tight, Caillou. We don't
want him running around, okay?
Caillou: Okay, Grandma. Come on, Rover.

Mr. Jenkins: Hello! Who might you be?
Caillou: Caillou.
Mr. Jenkins: And who's that?
Caillou: Grandma and Rover.
Grandma: Hi, Mr. Jenkins. I asked my grandson Caillou to bring in your snack while I keep
an eye on Rover here. I know he bothers your allergies.
Mr. Jenkins: Oh, that's silly. Come on in, and bring that little fellow with you. Is that your
dog, Caillou?
Caillou: No, I have a cat.
Mr. Jenkins: Well, that looks an awful lot like a dog to me. Well, I'm very glad to meet you,
Caillou. Your grandma talks about you all the time. You're very lucky to have such a terrific
grandma, Caillou. I bet you love her cookies just as much as I do. Here you go, I don't like
to eat, a lo... Achoo!
Grandma: Gezundheit! Come on, Caillou. We have to take Rover away from Mr. Jenkins
now.
Mr. Jenkins: Good bye, Caillou...Aaaaa..Choo!
Mrs. Murphy: Come in.
Grandma: Hello, Mrs. Murphy, how are you today?
Mrs. Murphy: I'm great. Oh, look, and you brought Rover with you. Come here, puppy. Oh,
and this must be your grandson, Caillou. It's so nice to finally meet you. I was just playing
cards. Do you know how to play, Caillou? Would you like me to teach you a game that I
play with my granddaughter? Here, sit down and I'll show you how.
Grandma: Caillou, would you like to stay here with Mrs. Murphy while I go visit Mrs.
Peterson?
Mrs. Murphy: Oh, I would love that. We can play cards together. How about it?
Storyteller: Caillou felt a little shy with Mrs. Murphy, but he was really curious about her
card game.
Mrs. Murphy: I have a special deck of cards I use when my granddaughter visits. See? They
have animals on them. This is called the memory game. You place all the cards face down
on the table and you have to pick two cards that are the same. Here, I'll try first. Now it's
your turn, Caillou. You've got it! You're good at this. It's your turn again.
Storyteller: Caillou was having a lot of fun. He loved playing cards with Mrs. Murphy. And
he was good at it too.
Mrs. Murphy: You win!
Caillou: I won, Grandma!

152
Grandma: Congratulations! I'm giving my exercise class now. Would you like to come
along, Mrs. Murphy?
Mrs. Murphy: Maybe another day, I think I'll read for a bit. We'll play again next time, okay,
Caillou? Whenever Amy wins, she always gets one of these.
Grandma: Would you like to exercise with us, Caillou? It's fun. It's kind of like a game. You
can finish this after. All right, everyone. Let's all take a deep breath, and limber up a bit.
Okay, now stretch as high as you can. Now shake it loose, everyone. That's it! Shake,
shake, shake, like a wet dog.
Caillou: Rover, stop! Rover!
Storyteller: Caillou couldn't find Rover. He was upset that he ran away, and now Rover was
lost.
Caillou: Rover!
Mrs. Murphy: Caillou? What's wrong? Are you lost?
Caillou: No. Rover's lost.
Mrs. Murphy: Don't worry, he can't be very far.
Grandma: Oh, there you are, Caillou. Did you find Rover?
Caillou: I looked everywhere, Grandma.
Grandma: Oh sweetie, don't be upset. Rover knows his way around this place. He usually
ends up somewhere that he's not supposed to be.
Caillou: Rover!
Mr. Jenkins: Aaaa-choo! Aaaa-choo!
Grandma: I think I know where he is.
Caillou: Mr. Jenkins!
Mr. Jenkins: Aaaa-choo! Come in!
Caillou: Rover!
Grandma: I told you he was somewhere he wasn't supposed to be. I'm terribly sorry, Mr.
Jenkins.
Mr. Jenkins: No harm done. He was scratching at my door.
Caillou: Rover wants more cookies, Grandma.
Mr. Jenkins: What'd I tell you, Caillou, every one loves your grandma's cookies. Aaaa-choo!

177. Caillou Computes

Caillou: Daddy's home!
Storyteller: Caillou had no idea what Daddy was bringing home in the big box. He
wondered if maybe there was something special inside the box for him.
Caillou: What is it, Daddy?
Daddy: It's a surprise. Hey, don't I get a hello hug?
Caillou: Is it a toy?
Daddy: Not really.
Caillou: Maybe it's a giant dinosaur egg!
Caillou: No, it's not, Daddy!
Mommy: Daddy's being silly. Let's put it in the playroom and go see what's in the box.
Storyteller: Caillou was very curious to see what was in the big box.
Caillou: What is it?
Mommy: It's a computer!

185
Rosie: Pooter?
Storyteller: Caillou was disappointed. He hoped that Daddy had brought a surprise just for
him.
Daddy: I'll show you how it works, Caillou, once I get it hooked up. I bought a drawing
program just for you.
Rosie: Gilbert!
Mommy: It's a cat-in-the-box! Caillou, look! There was a dinosaur in the box after all.
Daddy: See! You can draw on the computer and then print out your drawing.
Caillou: Do I need my crayons?
Mommy: No, look,you draw by moving this. It's called a mouse.
Caillou: A mouse? Look, Gilbert! Squeak, squeak, squeak!
Storyteller: Caillou liked drawing on the computer, but it was tricky at first using a mouse
to draw.
Caillou: Gilbert wants the mouse. Squeak, squeak!
Mommy: Why don't I print this up for you and you can color in the rest, okay? We can play
again, a little later.
Storyteller: Caillou was disappointed. He wanted to keep playing with the computer but he
also thought that crayons were a lot easier to draw with.
Mommy: No, Gilbert! Get down.
Daddy: Honey, where are Rosie's diapers?
Storyteller: Caillou wanted to print up another dinosaur so that he could color it in again.
He had seen Mommy press a button, and he thought he would try.
Caillou: Uh-oh!
Mommy: Caillou, what happened?
Caillou: I wanted another dinosaur drawing. I broke the computer, Mommy.
Mommy: You didn't break it, sweetie. Look. But from now on, you have to wait for Mommy
or Daddy before you can use the computer, okay?
Storyteller: Caillou was relieved that he hadn't broken the computer. And he soon
discovered that playing in the computer box was actually just as fun as playing with the
computer.
Caillou: We're gonna hit cat mountain.
Daddy: That wasn't a very smooth landing, was it? Come on you two, dinner's ready.
Caillou: Good night, Mommy. Can I play on the computer tomorrow with you?
Mommy: Of course you can, Caillou.
Caillou: Gilbert's afraid of the mouse, Mommy.
Mommy: That's cause he's a scaredy cat.

Leo: I'm a big dinosaur, too.
Storyteller: Caillou and Leo were playing in the backyard. They were pretending they were
dinosaurs.
Caillou: I'm as big as a mountain.
Leo: Me, too.

186
Caillou: Leo, look! A dinosaur jungle. Roar!
Mommy: Caillou, stay away from my flowers please!
Storyteller: Caillou knew that he wasn't supposed to walk through the garden, but when he
played with Leo, he sometimes got carried away.
Caillou: Let's find a dinosaur mountain to climb. We can pile up rocks.
Leo: Yeah. And then we can climb it. Roar!
Caillou: Here's a rock.
Leo: Dinosaurs need a whole bunch of rocks.
Caillou: We can pile them up in the sandbox.
Storyteller: Caillou and Leo were disappointed. They wanted a bigger pile of rocks to climb.
We need bigger rocks.
Leo: That's a really big rock.
Caillou: Help me, Leo.
Daddy: Boys, you're too close to my tomato plants. You might damage them.
Caillou: Daddy, help, we need this for our dinosaur mountain.
Daddy: A dinosaur mountain, huh? That's a pretty big rock, Caillou.
Caillou: It's stuck.
Daddy: Well, since it's sticking out, and someone can trip over it, we may as well move it.
Okay, Leo, you grab there and Caillou, you push here, and I'll pull. Ready?
Caillou: It's out!
Leo: Yeah, we did it!
Daddy: Hey, it looks like we've just dug up something special.
Caillou: A special rock?
Daddy: Yup. Look, that's a fish fossil.
Caillou: What's a fossil?
Daddy: Well, a long, long time ago, a fish got stuck in mud, and after a long time, the mud
turned into rock.
Caillou: How did the fish get stuck in the mud?
Daddy: Maybe a bunch of mud fell on it.
Leo: This was a real fish?
Daddy: Good work, boys. Finding a fossil is very rare.
Leo: Can I bring this home with me?
Caillou: No. It's my rock.
Leo: But I found it.
Caillou: No. I found it.
Storyteller: Caillou and Leo were arguing because they both wanted the special rock. But
there was only one way they could both have it.
Daddy: You boys are going to have to take turns playing with the rock, okay?
Caillou: Okay. Let's bring it to the sandbox. We've got lots of rocks now.
Leo: I'm gonna climb the dinosaur mountain.
Caillou: I'm going to climb first.
Caillou: What was that?
Leo: It's a big dinosaur coming to climb our mountain.
Caillou: It's raining.

187
Leo: We can play in the rain. I bet dinosaurs like rain.
Caillou: Let's bring the rocks inside. There! now, we can play dinosaurs.
Leo: But we don't have our special rock.
Caillou: It's too big to carry.
Mommy: Boys! What are you doing bringing rocks inside? You've made a mess.
Storyteller: Caillou and Leo realize they had done something wrong. But all they wanted to
do was to continue playing dinosaurs.
Caillou: But it's raining and we can't play outside.
Mommy: Well, you can't bring the rocks inside the house.
Daddy: Did Caillou and Leo tell you about the special rock they found?
Mommy: No, but it looks like they found a few special rocks and they brought them all
inside.
Caillou: We found a fossil rock! But it's too big to carry.
Daddy: I've got an idea. Why don't we leave the rocks outside so the rain will clean them
off. And I can take you and Leo to the library to find some books on fossils, okay?
Storyteller: Caillou and Leo were excited about going to the library. They had never gone to
the library together before.
Caillou: I'm going to find a book on fossils.
Leo: I'm going to find a book about dinosaurs.
Daddy: Why don't you both find a book on dinosaur fossils.
Caillou: Dinosaur fossils?
Leo: I'll find it first.
Storyteller: Caillou and Leo looked and looked, but they couldn't find the book they were
searching for.
Librarian: Are you boys looking for any special kind of books?
Caillou: Dinosaurs.
Leo: Fossils.
Librarian: We have lots of books about dinosaurs. Let me show you where they are.
Storyteller: Caillou and Leo were very happy looking at books about dinosaurs.
Caillou: This dinosaur is as big as a tree.
Leo: This one looks scary.
Caillou: Roar! Leo, look!
Leo: Wow! A dinosaur fossil!
Librarian: Pretty neat, huh? It's a model of a dinosaur fossil.
Leo: We found a fossil today.
Caillou: It's a fish that got stuck in the mud.
Librarian: Really? Would you boys like to bring it in some time? You could put it on display
right here next to this model of the dinosaur fossil.
Caillou & Leo: Yeah!
Daddy: That's a great idea! Should we bring it in tomorrow?
Caillou & Leo: Yeah!
Storyteller: Caillou and Leo were very pleased that their fish fossil was going to be in the
library, so that lots of other children could see it, too.
Caillou: Everyone's going to see our special rock.

188
Leo: We have to make it all shiny and clean.
Caillou: There! Maybe we can find another fossil.
Leo: A dinosaur fossil!

180. Get Well, Mr. Hinkle

Storyteller: Caillou loved playing in the living room in the morning because right about this
time...
Caillou: Oh, it's the mailman! Good morning!
Mailman: Well, good morning to you, too, Caillou. See you tomorrow.
Caillou: Bye, Mister Mailman. Mommy, look what the mailman brought. Is there anything
for me?
Mommy: Not today. Oh, but Mr. Hinkle's hardware catalogue got mixed up with our mail by
mistake. Want to take it over to him?
Caillou: You mean like a mailman? Can I dress like one, too?
Mommy: Yes, of course.
Mr. Hinkle: Well, hello, Mr. Mailman. You look just like my young friend who lives next
door.
Caillou: It's me, Mr. Hinkle, Caillou. I'm delivering this catalogue just like the mailman.
Mr. Hinkle: Thank you! Oh look, I got the same hardware catalogue twice. Would you like
one?
I know how much you like to cut out the pictures.
Caillou: Thank you, Mr. Hinkle. Mommy, look! Mommy, Mr. Hinkle was still wearing his
pyjamas. Do grown-ups take naps in the day, too?
Mommy: He could be sick, honey. Remember when Daddy had the flu and we made him a
card and some chicken soup?
Caillou: Mommy, could we make chicken soup and a card for Mr. Hinkle?
Mommy: Sure. I bet it'll make him feel a lot better.
Caillou: Look, Mommy, I'm all done!
Mommy: It's beautiful, Caillou.
Caillou: Mommy, can I get some flowers for Mr. Hinkle?
Mommy: Great idea. You could make a nice vase with this.
Caillou: Gilbert! Look, Mommy!
Mommy: It's beautiful, Caillou. All we need now are some flowers from our garden.
Caillou: And a red one, Mommy. Get a red one.
Mommy: Mr. Hinkle is going to be so happy when he gets your card and flowers.
Caillou: Yeah! Mr. Hinkle, look what I made for you.
Mr. Hinkle: All this, just for me?
Caillou: Read the card!
Mr. Hinkle: There's a beautiful blue bird, and underneath it says "Mr. Hinkle". That's me.
Thank you. This is the best get-well card I've ever seen. I'm feeling better already, Caillou.
And you know, it's perfect you put that blue bird on the card.
Caillou: Why?
Mr. Hinkle: I just finished putting this birdhouse together. Want to come back tomorrow,
when I'm all better and help me paint it?

189
Caillou: Okay, Mr. Hinkle. Goodbye! I can't wait to help Mr. Hinkle paint his birdhouse.
Mommy: What? You don't want to be a mailman anymore?

181. The Big Boat

Storyteller: Caillou was very excited, because today they were going on a sailboat.
Caillou: Look, Daddy, I have a boat, too. Vrrrr!
Rosie: Vrrrr!
Daddy: May I borrow your boat? I wanna show you something. See? The reason we call it a
sailboat is because it has sails.
Mommy: When the wind blows in the sails, it pushes the boat on the water.
Caillou: Me too.
Mommy: It's time to go to the marina now. That's where they keep the boats.
Caillou: Yeah!
Daddy: Okay. You'll need to wear your sneakers. They're the best shoes to wear on a boat.
Ready to feel the wind blowing in the sails?
Caillou: That tickles. Can I bring it, Daddy?
Daddy: You sure can!
Storyteller: When Caillou got to the marina, there were lots of boats. But none of them
seemed to have sails.
Rosie: Birdie!
Caillou: Where's the sailboat?
Mommy: Hmmm. I'll give you a clue. Our friend Helen's sailboat is brown and white.
Caillou: I can find it.
Daddy: Come up here, sailor. You'll have a better view.
Rosie: Rosie too!
Daddy: Do you see it?
Caillou: There!
Helen: Welcome aboard, everyone. I'm glad you could come.
Storyteller: The boat rocked a little and Caillou felt a little unsteady.
Caillou: Mommy, the floor is moving.
Mommy: It's okay, Caillou. It takes a little time to get used to it.
Helen: Safety first! I have something special for you. We need to wear these lifejackets
while we're on the boat.
Caillou: I have sneakers, too.
Helen: Look at that! You're on your way to becoming a true sailor.
Rosie: Bird!
Daddy: You know, Helen has a whole house, just like ours, right here, inside her sailboat.
Caillou: Where is it?
Helen: I'll show you.
Rosie: Birdie!
Mommy: We'll stay out a bit. Rosie likes the seagulls.
Caillou: Wow! How did you do that?
Helen: Oh, there are lots of surprises like this on my boat. I have a kitchen in here, too, do
you think you can find it?

190
Daddy: Hmmm, is this the kitchen?
Caillou: No, Daddy. This is a bathroom.
Daddy: There you go, Caillou.
Caillou: It's a bed. I can't find the kitchen.
Daddy: I spy what looks like an oven door.
Caillou: Over here!
Daddy: Uh-huh!
Helen: This is my galley. That's what we call a kitchen on a boat.
Helen: Would you like some grapes?
Caillou: Yes, please!
Helen: Maybe the others would like some, too!
Rosie: Caillou!
Caillou: Hmmm.
Storyteller: Caillou saw something way up on the mast that looked familiar.
Caillou: Hmmm. Hmmm. Look Daddy, Helen has a pinwheel, too, just like mine.
Helen: And just like yours, mine tells me when the wind is blowing. Looks like it's time to
go sailing!
Caillou: Yeah!
Rosie: Yeah!
Mommy: When we're out of the marina, we can shut the motor off, and the sails will do the
work.
Daddy: Almost done. And there. Phew!
Helen: Let's find the wind, shall we? Here we go!
Storyteller: Caillou was excited. Helen had turned the boat, so the wind was moving them
fast now.
Mommy: It's all right, Rosie.
Caillou: Here, Rosie, you can have this.
Rosie: Whoo!
Caillou: Wow!
Caillou & Rosie: Hi!
Caillou: They don't have a wheel.
Helen: But they have a tiller. See the stick the man is holding in the back? It steers just like
my wheel. Caillou, would you like to help me steer?
Caillou: Yes!
Helen: You're doing a fine job, Caillou. I think you can be captain for a while.
Storyteller: Caillou was very proud to help steer the sailboat. He was having a lot of fun,
but the visit was coming to an end.
Daddy: Thanks, Helen, we had a wonderful time.
Helen: It was fun sailing with you. Come back soon. Here, Caillou, don't forget this.
Caillou: Thank you!
Rosie: Bye bye!
Caillou: Bye!
Storyteller: Caillou couldn't stop thinking about the wind blowing the sails. And that
evening, he decided to go sailing again.

191
Daddy: Almost done. Here you go, Rosie.
Caillou: See, Rosie, you have to be the wind.
Caillou: You did it!

182. Where I Live

Caillou: Look, Daddy, that's our family.
Daddy: Wow!
Caillou: I help you.
Daddy: Mmm, I could use a driver, are you interested?
Daddy: Okay, Mister Driver, point the way to the flowers, so I can drop off this dirt.
Caillou: Over there!
Daddy: Oh, oh, look out. No brakes.
Caillou: Whoohoohoo!
Sarah: Hi, Caillou! Come over, I have something to show you.
Caillou: Daddy, can I go?
Daddy: You sure can.
Sarah: It's a letter for you. It says "Caillou" right there. There's a mistake in the number of
the address. It says fifteen, Pine street. That's my number. What's your number?
Storyteller: Caillou knew there were numbers on his house too, but he didn't remember
what they were.
Caillou: Let's go see. Huh, 1 and 7!
Sarah: That's seventeen!
Caillou: Look! I have a letter!
Daddy: Wow! Mmm, mailed to 15, Pine street.
Sarah: That's my address. At fifteen, it feels like a dream. I made it up so remember.
Daddy: That's a good idea, Sarah. Caillou, do you know what our address is?
Caillou: Huh-huh!
Daddy: 17, Pine street. Hey! How about we make our own rhyme: Jelly Bean, seventeen. I
am fine, I live on Pine. My family is fine. The sun likes to shine. Come here and see us on 17
Pine.
Sarah: We can write seventeen on your house. There, seventeen. I better go back home
now. We're supposed to go to the store soon. Bye!
Caillou: Jelly Bean 17. I am fine. I live on Pine.
Rosie: Pine!
Caillou: Seventeen.
Mommy: I'm very impressed. What's this? "To Caillou" Let's see. Isn't this pretty? It reads:
"You are invited to my party, Saturday at one". And it's from Clemetine.
Caillou: Yeah, a party! I want to go!
Mommy: Let's call her to let her know you'll be there.
Daddy: You can also tell her your correct address.
Mommy: Okay, sweetie, it's Clementine's mom, you can tell her our address.
Caillou: Hi, huh, Jelly bean 17. Hmmm...
Daddy: I am fine. I live on...

192
Caillou: Pine! I live at 17 Pine! Thank you. Yes, please. Hi, Clementine! I'm coming to your
party.

183. A Good Friend

Mommy: Are you ready to go? Leo will be here any minute.
Caillou: Yes. Oops!
Storyteller: Caillou was going to the park with Mommy and Leo and he wanted to take all of
his favorite toys with him.
Mommy: You can't take all those. How about you pick one or two. Why don't you leave your
dinosaur? You don't want it to get dirty in the park.
Caillou: Okay.
Leo: Dino's my new friend.
Caillou: I like Dino, too.
Leo's Mommy: I'll be back in a couple of hours.
Mommy: Okay.
Caillou: Bye!
Leo: Try this. Let's go there. I can run fast.
Caillou: I can run faster. That was fun. Let's climb to the top.
Leo: Caillou. Caillou.
Mommy: Caillou, Leo. We'd better get going.
Caillou: Okay. Ready? Go!
Storyteller: Caillou had such a good time at the park with Leo, he wanted to see him again.
Caillou: You want to play tomorrow?
Leo: Okay.
Leo's Mommy: Your Auntie Joan is coming tomorrow moring.
Leo: I want to play with Caillou.
Mommy: You could bring Leo tomorrow afternoon if you want.
Leo's Mommy: All right.
Caillou & Leo: Yeah!
Caillou: Bye! And we played in the sandbox and on the jungle gym.
Daddy: Sounds like you had a really good time. Hello? Oh, hi! Really? I'll have a look
around. Bye. That was Leo's Mommy. Leo lost his toy dinosaur.
Caillou: Oh, no!
Mommy: Why don't you have a look to see if it's with your toys.
Caillou: It's not here.
Storyteller: Caillou knew how much Leo liked his new dinosaur.
Daddy: He must have left it somewhere.
Caillou: I know. He left his dinosaur at the park. I know where it is. Can we go get it?
Mommy: It's gonna be dark soon. Leo's going to have to get Dino tomorrow.
Caillou: Dino's going to be scared all alone in the dark.
Daddy: Well, I guess we could walk over to the park after dinner.
Caillou
Yeah!
Rosie: Yeah!

193
Caillou: It's not here, Daddy.
Daddy: Where else did you play?
Caillou: There and there.
Daddy: I don't see it. We'd better get home, it's getting dark. Looks like we're going to get
some rain.
Storyteller: Caillou was glad that his dinosaur Rexy was safe but he was worried about
Leo's dinosaur.
Caillou: Dino's going to get all wet.
Mommy: Maybe someone put him in a nice safe place.
Caillou: I bet Leo's real sad.
Mommy: You know what we'll do. Tomorrow when you get up we'll make a lost poster and
hang it up in the park.
Storytller: That made Caillou feel a lot better. A poster was sure to help find Dino.
Mommy: Goodnight. Sweet dreams.
Storyteller: The next day, Caillou made a poster to hang up in the park.
Rosie: Rosie too! Sticky!
Mommy: There! You did a good job on your poster. Now if someone has seen Dino, they can
call Leo's house or ours.
Park Worker: Hello there, can I help you?
Caillou: Leo lost his dinosaur.
Park Worker: He did?
Caillou: Did you find it?
Park Worker: No, but there's a Lost and Found Department in the park office. You might
find it there.
Caillou: Lost and Found? What's that?
Park Worker: If someone finds something and they don't know who owns it, they can leave
it at the Lost and Found Department.
Mommy: And if you've lost something, you know where to go to see if someone found it.
Caillou: Can we go, Mommy?
Mommy: Sure.
Caillou: Bye, thank you! Look at all the things people lost. And Mommy, they don't know
that someone has found them.
Mommy: Mmm-Hmm.
Doll: Hello, my name is... Hello, my name is... Hello, my name is...
Caillou & Rosie: Ha ha ha!
Storyteller: Caillou liked the Lost and Found but he was upset that he hadn't found Leo's
dinosaur.
Mommy: We have to go home and have lunch. Leo is coming this afternoon.
Caillou: What about Dino?
Mommy: It doesn't look like he's here. We'll just have to keep looking for him.
Caillou: I found him! Look, Mommy, I found Dino!
Storyteller: Caillou was really happy he found Dino.
Caillou: Ta da!
Leo: Dino! Thank you for finding Dino.

194
Mommy: I didn't find him, Caillou did.
Leo: You're my best best friend, Caillou!
Caillou: Thanks! Let's play inside. I don't think Dino wants to be lost anymore.

184. Just Like Me

Storyteller: It was a beautiful summer day and Caillou was playing in the park with Rosie.
Clementine: Caillou! Look, no more training wheels.
Caillou: Wow!
Clementine: Billy taught me. I like having a big brother. He teaches me lots of things.
Caillou: I teach Rosie lots too!
Clementine: Like what?
Caillou: Hmmm!
Storyteller: Caillou tried to think what he had taught Rosie but he couldn't remember.
Mommy: Time to get going. Caillou, come get your toys.
Caillou: Gotta go! Bye, Clementine!
Caillou: I'll close it. I'm her big brother.
Mommy: You certainly are.
Storyteller: Caillou wanted to teach Rosie something, just like Billy had taught Clementine.
Caillou: Want to learn how to ride my bike, Rosie?
Rosie: Yeah!
Caillou: Okay, now push the pedals.
Mommy: What are you doing, Caillou?
Caillou: Billy showed Clementine how to ride her bike. I wanna show Rosie.
Mommy: There are somethings Rosie's too young for right now. Just like you used to be
when you're her age.
Rosie: Choo! Choo!
Caillou: No Rosie. Don't take it apart. Watch, Rosie, I'll show you! You put it together like
this.
Caillou & Rosie: Yeah!
Storyteller: Caillou was very excited he taught Rosie to put the train track together. He
wanted to show Mommy.
Caillou: Look, Mommy! Come see!
Mommy: Okay.
Caillou: Rosie!
Mommy: I guess Rosie's not old enough to put the train set together. Come on, you two,
lunch is ready.
Mommy: Why don't you show Rosie how to eat spaghetti.
Caillou: Rosie, watch! You take the fork and put the spaghetti like this.
Rosie: Pasghettis!
Caillou: I guess I'm not a very good big brother. I can't teach her anything.
Mommy: That's not true. She watches everything you do and copies it. That's one of the
ways she learns.
Caillou: Really?

195
Mommy: Sure. I know something you can teach her. How about that song we used to sing
before bed. A-B-C-D...
Caillou: Oh, Rosie, let's sing. It's called the A-B-C song. A-B-C-D-E-F-G!
Rosie: A-B-F-T-C!
Caillou: A-B-C-D-E-F-G!
Rosie: A B C D E F G!
Caillou: She did it!
Mommy: You can't stop there. There's still the rest of the alphabet to go.
Caillou: A-B-C-D-E-F-G! H-I-J...

185. Just In Time

Mommy: Wake up, Caillou. It's time for breakfast. No dawdling this morning. We don't have
much time before we meet Leo at the park.
Caillou: Okay!
Mommy: Thank you, Caillou!
Storyteller: Caillou thought about getting some breakfast, but when he saw his toy car, he
couldn't help but stopping play with it.
Caillou: Vroom! Vroom!
Mommy: It's about time. Rosie's already finished her breakfast.
Rosie: Car! Car!
Caillou: Not now, Rosie. I have to eat breakfast.
Mommy: You'd better hurry, you still have to get changed and brush your teeth.
Storyteller: Caillou was having such a good time playing with his car, he forgot about
brushing his teeth.
Mommy: Caillou! You're still not ready?
Caillou: Uh-oh!
Mommy: Hmm!
Storyteller: Caillou was taking a long time deciding which shirt to wear.
Mommy: Caillou! We're ready to go.
Caillou: Coming!
Storyteller: Caillou was finding all sorts of interesting things on the way to the playground.
Caillou: A caterpillar!
Mommy: It is very pretty. But we should keep going. It is not polite to keep Leo and his
mommy waiting.
Caillou: There he is!
Storyteller: Caillou wondered why Leo was leaving the playground.
Leo's Mommy: Hello. We waited for you as long as we could, but we have to get going now.
Mommy: Oh, sorry we're so late.
Leo: Bye, Caillou. Maybe we can play later.
Caillou & Mommy & Rosie: Bye!
Mommy: It took so long for you to get ready and now we hardly have any time left to play.
Storyteller: Caillou was disappointed that he couldn't play with Leo.
Daddy: Almost ready for your bedtime story?
Caillou: Can you read me three bedtime stories tonight, Daddy?

196
Mommy: I don't know if he can. Remember what happened today when we ran out of time.
It depends how long you take getting ready.
Daddy: I know. How about we make it a game? When I turn this timer upside down, you've
got five minutes to get ready for bed before all the sand gets to the bottom. On your mark,
get, set, go!
Storyteller: Caillou really wanted Daddy to read three stories.
Caillou: I did it! I went fast, Daddy.
Daddy: You sure did, Caillou! That deserves three bedtime stories.
Storyteller: Caillou was very happy that he got ready on time.
Caillou: I like that game, Daddy!
Daddy: Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Caillou and he used to take a lot of
time to do things...

186. Mr. Fixit

Storyteller: Caillou liked laundry day.The whole house smelled nice.
Caillou: Daddy, Gilbert is helping you fold the laundry.
Daddy: Gilbert, silly cat. That's no place for you. I know I put two socks in the washer. Now
where did the other one go, huh?
Rosie: Whoo!
Daddy: Oh, no!
Rosie: Snow!
Mommy: Oh!
Caillou: Mommy, we're washing the clothes and the basement.
Daddy: Well, I think I better call someone to fix it before we 'wash' the whole house.
Mommy: Why don't we call the man who fixed the dryer last year,
Storyteller: The next day, someone knocked at the door.
Mommy: Hi, Bob, isn't it?
Bob: Yes, good to see you again. And Caillou, isn't it? Do you remember me?
Caillou: Huh-huh!
Bob: I'm Bob. And I'm here to fix your washing machine.
Caillou: It's not my machine. It's my Mommy and Daddy's. But I know where it is.
Mommy: It was fine until yesterday. Come on, Caillou, we'll let Bob work in peace.
Bob: Oh, that's all right. I can use the help.
Caillou: I have my own tools. I'll be right back. I know how to fix things too.
Bob: These are very nice tools. I like this one. It's called a wrench. Do you know what it's
for?
Caillou: Uh-huh? No.
Bob: It's for tightening things. Here, hop up here on this chair and I'll show you. You fit the
wrench onto this bolt and turn it like this. That tightens it. Do you want to give it a try?
Good job! See, now we tighten this all the way, put the cap on and we're done.
Daddy: It sounds much better now.
Caillou: I helped fix it, Daddy.
Bob: He sure did! I found this wrapped around the stem.
Daddy: Ah ha! My missing sock!

197
Caillou: Daddy, can I fix something for you?
Daddy: Sure. I could use a hand hammering this nail into the wall.
Daddy: Okay, now hit that nail with the hammer. Not to hard. Good job!
Caillou: Mommy, I helped that man fix the washing machine and I helped Daddy too.
Mommy: Thank you, Caillou. That's very wobbly. But I bet you could help Daddy fix it.
Daddy: There! That should make it stable. And now for the most important part, the glue.
Do you want to do it, Caillou?
Caillou: Yeah!
Mommy: How's my little handy man doing? Is it fixed, Caillou?
Caillou: Yes, it is. And this time, Daddy helped me.
Caillou: Rosie! She's my baby sister and I love her. We play games together a lot. And we
have fun. I get to show her things I like. And sometimes I help take care of her. Because
I'm her big brother.

187. Everyone's Best

Caillou: Hi, Clementine! What's that ribbon for?
Clementine: I won it at my swimming lessons.
Leo: I got a blue one at my Daddy's office picnic. I was the fastest runner.
Caillou: I'm a fast runner too.
Leo: You can't catch me. You can't catch me.
Grandma: What's the matter, Caillou? Aren't you going to try and catch them?
Caillou: I can't run as fast as they can.
Grandma: Don't let that bother you. You're good at lots of other things.
Caillou: I wish I could win a ribbon like Clementine's.
Grandma: Well, maybe you can. You've given me a wonderful idea. I'll be right back.
Leo: You can't catch me!
Caillou: Boom!
Storyteller: Grandma thought that she could help Caillou win a ribbon.
Grandma: Okay everybody, who wants to play some games? I have plenty of ribbons you
can win!
Leo & Clementine: I do!
Mommy: Don't you wanna play with the others, Caillou?
Caillou: Will I win a ribbon?
Mommy: I don't know, but you'll have lots of fun trying.
Grandma: Caillou?
Caillou: Wait for me, Grandma!
Grandma: In this race, everyone has to walk heel to toe. Like this! One foot right in front of
the other, all the way to the white ribbon. Is everyone ready? On your mark! Get set! Go!
Rosie: Rosie too!
Grandma: Hurray! Clementine wins!
Clementine: Yeah!
Storyteller: Caillou was disappointed he hadn't won, but he was determined to win the next
game.
Grandma: Well done, everybody! Ready for another one?

198
Caillou & Leo & Clementine: Yeah!
Grandma: How about a big smile for Grandma? Oh, very nice! Lovely! Hmm! Oh, I found the
biggest smile. Leo is the winner!
Clementine: Good smiling, Leo.
Leo: Thank you.
Mommy: What's the matter, Caillou?
Caillou: I want to win a ribbon.
Mommy: I know you do, honey, but remember, they're games. And games are supposed to
be fun.
Storyteller: Caillou decided that Mommy was right. He was thinking too much about the
ribbons, and not enough about having fun.
Grandma: Who wants to play the next game?
Caillou: I do!
Storyteller: Next was the contest for the silliest walk.
Caillou: Rosie wins! She's the silliest!
Grandma: Hurray!
Rosie: I win! I win!
Grandma: Now this is an obstacle course. First you jump over this mattress and land with
both feet. Then you do a hurdle jump over the ball, like this. Then you pick up the ball,
stand on the line and throw it into the basket. If it goes in, run as fast as you can, back to
the start. On your mark! Get set!
Rosie: Rosie!
Grandma: Go!
Announcer: And Caillou is in the lead! Look! He made it! What a jump! Caillou is still in the
lead!
Caillou: Yeah! Out of the way, Gilbert! Gilbert!
Grandma: You silly cat! You messed up our finish.
Clementine: Boy, you two were fast!
Caillou: Good race, Leo.
Storyteller: Caillou was having so much fun now, he'd forgotten all about winning a ribbon.
Storyteller: Grandma's next game was the 'no smiling' contest. No matter what happened
you couldn't smile or laugh or giggle!
Grandma: Rosie's out! Come sit with me, Rosie. Let's make the others laugh.
Mommy: Caillou's the winner!
Grandma & Clementine & Leo: Yeah!
Rosie: Caillou winner!
Caillou: I won! I won! I did it! Yeah!
Caillou & Clementine & Leo: Yeah!
Grandma: All right, Gilbert, you can have a ribbon too, for having the best, purr.
Caillou: Yeah, Gilbert!

188. Stronger Every Day

Daddy: Be careful, boys, that basket's heavy.
Caillou: Whoa! Whoa! Oof! I'm gonna carry it the rest of the way myself.

199
Daddy: That's too heavy for you, Caillou. Here, let me take it.
Storyteller: Caillou wished he could be big and strong like his Daddy.
Rosie: Birdie!
Daddy: Where're you going? It's almost time to eat.
Caillou: I'm not hungry.
Rosie: Rosie hungry!
Mommy: Oh no, you don't. Cows eat grass, not little Rosies.
Rosie: Moo!
Caillou: Can we play on the monkey bars until lunch is ready?
Mommy: All right.
Daddy: Can I come too? I love the monkey bars. Hee hee hee hee hee! Whoo whoo whoo!
Storyteller: Caillou was tired of being small. He wanted to be big and strong.
Daddy: Want a boost, little monkey?
Caillou: One, whoo ah ah! two, ah ah! three, ooh ah ah! four, ah ah ah ah! I made it!
Daddy: You sure did! Very good!
Leo: Oh boy! Look at that! Look, Caillou! New monkey bars! Bigger ones!
Caillou: Wow!
Workman: And, you can be the first to try them out.
Daddy: Thanks!
Leo: One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight! The other one only has four.
Caillou: Daddy, can I try? Please? One, ah ah ah! two, three, four... Oof!
Daddy: Very good, Caillou!
Storyteller: Caillou was disappointed that he couldn't make it to the end of the monkey
bars.
Leo: I'm gonna be a monkey too! Whoo whoo, ah ah! One, two, three, four, five...
Daddy: Good for you, Leo!
Caillou: Can I try again?
Daddy: You sure can.
Caillou: One, two, three, four...
Storyteller: Caillou really wanted to keep going, but his arms were tired and sore, and his
fingers just couldn't hold on any longer.
Caillou: I can only do four. You went further than I did.
Daddy: Four's a lot! Five too! On the old bars that would be have been all the way to the
end.
Caillou: But I wanna go all the way across these monkey bars.
Daddy: You'll have to get a little stronger first.
Caillou: How can I get stronger?
Daddy: I know the answer to that one. Do you want me to tell you?
Caillou & Leo: Yes! Yeah!
Daddy: Hmm. To grow up big and strong you have to... I can't tell you.
Caillou: Daddy!
Daddy: Okay, I'll tell you. At the picnic blanket. It's time for lunch.
Caillou: Okay!
Leo: Yeah!

200
Rosie: Flutterbye! Flutterbye! Flutterbye!
Caillou: Hi Mommy! We were swinging like monkeys.
Mommy: Well, I think I have just the thing for two little monkeys.
Rosie: Moo!
Daddy: Sounds like feeding time at the zoo.
Caillou: Tell us, Daddy.
Daddy: Tell you what?
Caillou: Tell us what we have to do to grow up big and strong.
Daddy: To grow up big and strong, you have to... Wait a minute, you already know. Who
told you?
Caillou: We don't know.
Leo: Tell us!
Daddy: To grow up strong you have to eat healthy food, like fruits and vegetables, and
sandwiches. And you have to drink healthy drinks, like juice and milk.
Caillou: Daddy! I already knew that.
Daddy: Ha ha ha! It also helps to get lots of sleep at night, and lots of exercise during the
day. That's really just another word for playing.
Leo: Getting strong is gonna be easy, cause those are all my favourite things.
Caillou: Me too! I'm gonna be really, really, really strong! Hmm! Hmm!
Daddy: Who would like some more milk?
Caillou: Me! Me! Me!
Leo: Me too, please!
Rosie: Moo!
Clementine: Hi, Caillou! Billy, my chain fell off.
Caillou: Wow, you sure are strong, Billy.
Billy: There you go, Clem.
Clementine: Thanks, Billy.
Billy: Hey, Caillou! You're sure getting strong.
Caillou: Really? I am?
Billy: Sure! You were way too little to lift that last year.
Caillou: Really? Hey Daddy! Guess what? I am getting stronger. See?
Storyteller: Caillou knew it would take a long time to grow really big and strong, but he
could get a little bit stronger every single day.

189. [SONG]I wanna be big right now

I wanna be big right now!
I wanna be big right now!
I wanna do the things that grown-ups do right now!
If I was big,
I could drive,
a real fancy car.
If I was big,
I could be,
a famous soccer star.

201
I could go to the carnival,
and ride on all the rides.
I could eat what I want,
go to sleep when I decide.
I wanna be big right now.
But you know what,
being small is also okay.
It's okay to be small.
I don't mind not being tall.
There are things I can do.
That's meant for only me and you.
I could still ride my bike,
go with dad on a hike.
And because I'm so short,
I can fit in my fort.
My friends and I could play,
with my dinosaurs all day.
Being small is okay.
You know what?
Maybe I can wait till I grow up.

190. No More Training Wheels

Caillou: Ha ha ha ha! What are you doing, Daddy?
Daddy: I'm going to wash the front windows.
Caillou: Can I help?
Daddy: Sure thing.
Caillou: Eee-yah! Whoa! Oof!
Rosie: Caillou fall down!
Daddy: That bucket's a bit big for you to carry, Caillou. Here, why don't you carry these? I'll
bring the bucket.
Caillou: Okay.
Daddy: There! All done!
Caillou: We did a good job, didn't we?
Daddy: We sure did. Thanks for helping, Caillou. Is that bike getting smaller or is my little
girl growing bigger?
Rosie: Yeah! Rosie big girl now!
Caillou: Look at me, Daddy.
Daddy: You're getting big too.
Sarah: Hi, Caillou! Wanna go for a ride?
Caillou: Can I go?
Daddy: Sure. Can I come along too, Sarah? Okay, I'm ready.
Caillou: That's Rosie's trike. You have your own bicycle, Daddy.
Storyteller: Caillou was upset that his training wheels were slowing him down.
Caillou: Daddy, can I try riding without my extra wheels, like Sarah?

202
Daddy: Are you sure you're ready to take your training wheels off?
Caillou: I wanna try, Daddy. Please?
Sarah: I rode my bike with training wheels for a long time, Caillou. I only took them off a
little while ago.
Caillou: I'm a big boy now, see? I don't need extra wheels.
Daddy: All right, let's give it a try, but you're going to have to practice and be patient.
Switching to two wheels isn't easy.
Caillou: Can we go home and take them off right now?
Daddy: Why not?
Storyteller: Caillou imagined he was bicycling without his training wheels, and racing with
the grown-ups.
Caillou: Yeah!
Daddy: Hey, Caillou! Where are you going? You were going so fast you missed the turn. It's
back this way.
Sarah: Come on, Caillou.
Mommy: Go, Caillou.
Sarah: You can do it!
Rosie: Yeah!
Caillou: Whoa! Daddy, don't let go!
Daddy: Phew! Maybe we should stop for a rest and try again later?
Caillou: I'm not tired, Daddy! Mommy, watch this!
Mommy: Oh! Caillou!
Rosie: Whoa! Oh!
Storyteller: Caillou didn't understand why he couldn't ride his bike without the training
wheels.
Caillou: I think my bike is getting tired.
Mommy: Come on, Rosie. Let's get you changed out of those wet things. Caillou, can you
help Rosie with her shoes while I get the phone?
Caillou: Okay, Rosie.
Rosie: No! I do it, Caillou!
Caillou: That's the wrong foot, Rosie.
Rosie: I do it!
Caillou: You've got your shoes on the wrong feet. Let me help you.
Rosie: No. I do it! I big girl! Rosie fall down!
Daddy: Something's not quite right here, sweetie. Let's see. Riding without training wheels
is hard, isn't it?
Caillou: Why can't I do it?
Daddy: Maybe you're just not ready yet.
Caillou: Like Rosie with her shoes?
Daddy: Yeah. Some day she'll be able to put on her shoes by herself and you'll be riding
that bike all over the neighbourhood, you'll see.
Caillou: Maybe I should keep the extra wheels on for a little while longer.
Daddy: I think that's a good idea, because you know what? There's a right time for
everything.

203
Sarah: Hi, Caillou! Wanna go for a bike ride?
Caillou: But I can't keep up with you.
Sarah: That's okay, this time I'm not on my bike. I'm just learning to roller blade, so don't
go too fast.
Caillou: Don't worry Sarah, I won't.
Daddy: What's so funny?
Caillou: You need training wheels, Daddy. You're going too fast.
Daddy: Whoa! I think you're right, Caillou! Whoa! Whoa...

191. Caillou Helps Out

Storyteller: Caillou and his family were having dinner. Everybody was eating, everybody
except Rosie.
Mommy: Please finish your supper, sweetie.
Daddy: What's wrong, Rosie?
Caillou: Look, Rosie, I'm all done!
Daddy: You haven't eaten a thing.
Rosie: Rosie not hungry.
Caillou: But spaghetti is yummy. Mmmm.
Storyteller: Caillou wondered why his little sister was so upset.
Caillou: And the mommy and daddy watched the baby bird flap his wings and fly all by
himself. They thought the baby bird was getting to be a big boy, I mean, a big bird. The
end.
Daddy: That was a very good story, Caillou. Thank you.
Caillou: Tweet! Tweet! Look, Daddy, I'm a baby bird. Tweet! Tweet!
Daddy: And I am the daddy bird coming to take the little bird back to his nest. Roar! Roar!
Roar!
Caillou: Do it again!
Daddy: Huh-huh, now its time for baby bird to go to sleep.
Caillou: Aw, I wanted to tell you another story.
Daddy: You can tell me another story.
Caillou: Really?
Daddy: Sure. Tomorrow night.
Caillou: Is Rosie okay? She's still crying and she didn't even eat her spaghetti.
Daddy: She'll be all right. Her teeth are growing in, and that can hurt.
Caillou: My teeth don't hurt.
Daddy: No, but when you were small like Rosie, they did.
Caillou: Really?
Daddy: Yup.
Caillou: Maybe I can cheer Rosie up.
Mommy: Maybe you can help, Caillou. See if you can get her to fall asleep.
Caillou: Okay!
Storyteller: Caillou didn't like hearing his little sister cry. He wanted to make her feel
better.
Rosie: Caillou!

204
Caillou: Shhh, Rosie! Can't you fall asleep? Just try closing your eyes.
Storyteller: Caillou tried to think what his Mommy would do.
Caillou: Do you want me to sing you a song?
Rosie: Caillou sing song!
Caillou: Rock-a-bye, Rosie, in the tree top, you have to go to sleep, cause it's night time.
Dad says your teeth hurt. I hope you feel better soon. So rock-a-bye Rosie, go to sleep now.
Storyteller: Caillou was very proud of his song, but Rosie wasn't falling asleep.
Rosie: Sing more.
Caillou: No, Rosie, you have to sleep now.
Storyteller: Then Caillou had another idea.
Caillou: Just a minute, Rosie. Hmmm.
Storyteller: Caillou thought a special toy might help his little sister fall asleep. He just had
to find the right one.
Caillou: Hee hee! My very favourite! Here, Rosie, you can borrow my fire truck.
Rosie: No!
Caillou: It's okay, Mommy. It was just my fire truck. Oh, Gilbert, it's only you. Come and lie
down with Rosie. See? Gilbert's going to sleep, so you have to go to sleep too, okay?
Rosie: Rosie want bunny!
Caillou: Okay, Rosie. Hmmm.
Storyteller: But bunny was nowhere to be found.
Caillou: I can't find bunny. How about your kangaroo instead?
Rosie: No!
Storyteller: Sunddenly Caillou remembered where he'd last seen Rosie's bunny.
Caillou: I'll be right back. Shhh, Gilbert. Hee ha ha! Hmmm. Rosie's bunny! Thanks, Gilbert!
Rosie: Bunny!
Caillou: I'm gonna tell you a story to help you go to sleep. Hmmm, let's see. Ah ha! One day
Rosie and Caillou went to the fair and took a ride on a big merry-go-round. On a kangaroo!
Yeah! Hold on tight, Rosie!
Rosie: Whee! Kangaroo fun!
Caillou: The kangaroo took Rosie and Caillou all around the fair. Then the kangaroo jumped
really, really high. Look, Rosie! We're flying like birds.
Rosie: Rosie, Caillou, flying!
Caillou: Flying in the sky was a lot of fun. They flew all the way up to the stars.
Rosie: Oh! Shiny!
Caillou: Wow! Look at that!
Rosie: Pretty!
Caillou: Rosie was getting tired, so the kangaroo took them back home. Rosie and Caillou
waved good-bye to their new friend, the kangaroo, and went to bed. The end.
Storyteller: Caillou was glad he had helped Rosie fall asleep. And now he was feeling very
sleepy too.
Caillou: Goodnight, Rosie, sweet dreams.
Storyteller: Goodnight, big brother Caillou.

192. Caillou The Firefighter

205
Leo: Stop! I'm a stop sign. Go! Can I wear your hat, Caillou?
Caillou: But I wanna wear it now.
Miss Martin: Attention! Time to clean up, everyone! It's just about time for our special
visitor.
Storyteller: Caillou felt bad about not letting Leo wear his hat, but he really wanted to wear
it for their special visitor.
Jeffrey: It's mine!
Jason: No, it's mine!
Jeffrey: I had it first!
Jason: I had it first!
Jeffrey: Come on, give it to me!
Jason: No way, it's mine!
Storyteller: Then Caillou remembered what Miss Martin always told them about sharing
and taking turns.
Miss Martin: Jason, why don't you let Jeffrey have it for a while?
Caillou: Psst, Leo? Over here! We can take turns. I'll wear my hat for a little bit and then
you wear it, okay?
Leo: Okay! Thanks, Caillou!
Miss Martin: Children, does everyone know what a smoke detector is? A smoke detector
beeps to tell us if there's smoke in the air. Why is this important to know?
Jason: Because if there's smoke that means there's a fire somewhere.
Miss Martin: Right! We have a smoke detector in our classroom. Can you find it?
Kids: Where it is? I can't find it!
Miss Martin: Smoke rises up, so where should a smoke detector be?
Kids: There it is! I see it! It's on the ceiling! It's up there! Yeah!
Miss Martin: Well done! Our visitor is here. Everyone sit down please. Children, say good
morning to the Fire Chief.
Kids: Good morning!
Fire Chief: Hello, everybody! I see we already have four firefighters in the class. I like your
hats. Mine can be a bit heavy.
Clementine: Whoa!
Fire Chief: Today we'll practice what to do if there's a fire in the school. Does anyone know
what that's called?
Caillou: A fire drill.
Fire Chief: Right! Now first of all, fires don't happen very often if everyone is careful. But a
fire can be dangerous, so we all need to know what to do if one starts. Today we're going
to test the fire alarm. Whenever you hear it you should stop everything you're doing and
leave the school. It's very, very...
Clementine: Loud!
Fire Chief: Would you like to hear how loud it is?
Kids: Yeah!
Miss Martin: Get ready, here it comes!
Fire Chief: Was that loud enought for you?
Kids: Yeah!

206
Fire Chief: So we're heard the alarm. Now we need to get outside quickly and carefully.
Could I have some help from our four firefighters?
Storyteller: Caillou wanted to help the Fire Chief, but he remembered that Leo wanted a
turn wearing the hat too.
Caillou: Here, Leo, you can be a helper.
Leo: Thanks, Caillou.
Fire Chief: Okay, Leo, give me your hand. Now everyone hold hands in a line.
Miss Martin: It's important to be very quiet as we go.
Fire Chief: Ready? Let's go!
Kids: Wow! Whoa!
Fire Chief: Good work, everybody! I've got a friend in here who is very anxious to meet all
of you.
Kids: It's a dog! Yeah! He's cute.
Fire Chief: This is Sparky. Come on, boy, come meet my friends. Would you like to see him
do a trick?
Kids: Yeah! Yeah!
Fire Chief: Sparky, speak! Good boy! Now how would you like to be the first to sit in the
truck?
Leo: Can Caillou come too?
Fire Chief: Sure!
Caillou: Yeah!
There's room for two.
Caillou: It's too big.
Leo: Ha ha ha!
Fire Chief: Would you like to sound the siren?
Caillou: Yes, please!
Fire Chief: Now get ready, because this siren is very, very loud. It has to tell all the cars on
the road to pull over and let the fire truck through. Ready?
Jason: Do it again, Caillou!
Caillou: It's Leo's turn.
Kids: Yeah!
Caillou: Here we come in our big red truck! Move out of the way! We're in a hurry! Sparky,
speak! I'm gonna be a firefighter when I grow up.
Fire Chief: Well, we'd be very happy to have someone like you on the team. Thank you.
Who wants to be next?
Clementine: Ha ha ha!
Leo: Here, Caillou. It's your turn to wear it now.
Caillou: Thanks, Leo.
Leo: I'm gonna be a firefighter when I grow up too.
Storyteller: Caillou thought that he and his best friend Leo would be a great firefighting
team.
Caillou: Whoa! Sparky! Bring that back!

[Song]Caillou the fireman

207
Caillou: Uh-oh, I hear the fire alarm.
Kids: Caillou's here to save the day.
Caillou: I'm Caillou the fireman.
Kids: If you need help, help is on the way.
Caillou: I'm Caillou the fireman.
I wear a hat and special clothes.
Kids: And he knows how to use a water hose.
Caillou: I drive a big red truck with a siren that's loud.
Kids: He's Caillou the fireman.
Caillou: I wave to the crowd and my Mommy's so proud.
Kids: He's Caillou the fireman.
Caillou: Even my dog gets to come along.
Kids: A fireman is brave and a fireman is strong.
Caillou: A smoke alarm is important.
Kids: That's true.
Caillou: I always check to see that the batteries are new.
Kids: If you see fire or if you smell smoke.
Get out fast, cause it's no joke!
All: Call a real fireman!
Call a real fireman!
Caillou: Oh, look, it's only Mr. Hinkle, and his barbeque. Oops, sorry, Mr. Hinkle.

193. Caillou To The Rescue

Caillou: Guess what, Gilbert? Leo's coming over. I'm gonna show him the car Grandpa gave
me. It used to belong to Daddy. It's in here somewhere. Here it is! Ha ha ha! Gilbert! The
toy box is for toys, not cats.
Rosie: Dolly hide! Hide and seek! Caillou play hide and seek!
Caillou: Not right now, Rosie. Leo's coming over to play cars.
Rosie: Dolly hide! Rosie play too!
Caillou: Vroom, vroom. Not right now, Rosie.
Rosie: Rosie play cars!
Caillou: No, Rosie. You're not big enough to play with these cars.
Rosie: Rosie big!
Caillou: Not big like that. You have to be big like me.
Rosie: Rosie help Caillou!
Caillou: Rosie!
Storyteller: Caillou, like many big brothers, didn't like it when his little sister messed up his
toys.
Caillou: Now I have to start all over. Leo's here.
Mommy: Caillou?
Caillou: Hi, Leo. Guess what? My Grandpa gave me a car that used to belong to my Daddy.
Leo: Wow! It must be really old.
Caillou: Uh-huh. And it has doors that open.
Leo: Can I see?

208
Caillou: Sure, come on. Hey, Rosie! Where are my cars?
Leo: I bet we can find them.
Rosie: Cars hiding!
Caillou: Where? I think I know where to look. We have to rescue those cars.
Leo: It's gonna be a big job.
Caillou: I know how we can get them out. Follow me! Under here, Leo, you get the other
one.
Leo: It's stuck.
Caillou: I'll help you.
Leo: Hey! Gilbert!
Caillou: Gilbert! That tickles! Got it! Rescue team is ready for action.
Rosie: Hide and seek! Rosie play too!
Leo: Vroom, vroom, vroom... All done! Now we can get the cars out.
Caillou: Okay! Hook me up!
Leo: All set!
Caillou: The car Grandpa gave me is still missing, so's the red one and the one with the
black stripe.
Leo: Let's use the crane! Here they are!
Caillou: Now they're all safe. This is the one that used to be Daddy's.
Mommy: What have you two been up to?
Caillou: All these cars were trapped in the rocks and we rescued them.
Mommy: That sounds like hard work. You must be hungry. How about something to eat?
Caillou & Leo: Yes, please!
Mommy: Okay then, while the two of you tidy this place up, I'll go and fix you a snack.
Caillou & Leo: Vroom, vroom... Beep beep beep! Vroom, vroom...
Mommy: Caillou?
Caillou: Let's go eat! Rescuing cars is fun.
Leo: Yeah! I liked pulling them out with the crane. Vroom!
Rosie: Rosie play too!
Caillou: Not now, Rosie!
Rosie: Hee hee hee hee hee!
Caillou: What are you doing with my car, Rosie?
Rosie: Rosie play car too?
Storyteller: Caillou wasn't very happy about Rosie playing with his cars, but then he
remembered how much fun he and Leo had rescuing them.
Caillou: Do you wanna do another rescue, Leo?
Leo: Ah!
Caillou: Rosie, can you hide my cars again?
Rosie: Hee hee hee hee hee! Rosie hide car!
Caillou: Rosie can help us with the rescue.
Leo: Ah, she can drive the tow truck.
Caillou: Come on, Leo! We've got some more rescuing to do!

194. Caillou and the Big Slide

209
Storyteller: It was a beautiful summer day, and Caillou's Mommy was taking him to
playschool.
Caillou: Swoosh!
Mommy: What are you doing, Caillou?
Caillou: I'm climbing up a mountain and sliding down again.
Mommy: Oh, that's very adventurous of you. You must be very brave.
Caillou: I am! Swoosh!
Mommy: Well, Mr. Mountain Climber, here we are.
Miss Martin: Good morning! Are you ready for our trip to the pool, Caillou?
Caillou: Yeah!
Mommy: I'll see you later. Have fun! Mmm-mmm!
Caillou: I will! Bye, Mommy!
Storyteller: Caillou was very excited about going swimming. It was his favourite thing to do
on a hot day.
Caillou: Red light! That means stop!
Miss Martin: Very good, Caillou.
Caillou: Green light! Now we can go!
Miss Martin: That's right. Everyone follow me.
Caillou: Race you to the swings!
Storyteller: Caillou liked to swing up as high as the birds.
Miss Martin: All right, everyone! It's time to go swimming.
Caillou & Leo: Yeah!
Clementine: Yahoo!
Emma: I love swimming!
Jeffrey & Jason: Yeah!
Leo: Look, Caillou! A water slide!
Miss Martin: This is Mary, our lifeguard. She'll be helping us out today. Make sure you listen
to her and do what she tells you to do.
Girl: This'll be fun!
Leo: Guess what I am! Glop, glop, glop!
Caillou: A fish!
Leo: Right! Come on, let's go on the slide.
Caillou: Oh!
Storyteller: Caillou thought the slide looked a little scary.
Jeffrey: Whoa!
Miss Martin: Your turn, Clementine!
Clementine: Whoa-hoo!
Miss Martin: You're next, Leo!
Leo: Yeah! Glop, glop, glop! Whee!
Miss Martin: Okay, Caillou! Up you go.
Leo: That was so fun! I wanna go again!
Storyteller: Caillou thought it looked like a very long way down to the bottom. He wasn't so
sure he wanted to slide down at all.

210
Miss Martin: Caillou? It's okay if you don't wanna slide down. Just climb down the ladder
again. Have you ever been on a water slide before?
Caillou: No.
Miss Martin: It can be a bit scary up there the first time, but you might like it if you gave it
a try. You know, I used to be afraid to go on the swings.
Caillou: Really?
Miss Martin: Uh-huh. I didn't like the idea of swinging up so high.
Caillou: I like swinging really high!
Miss Martin: Yes, I know. I saw how much fun you and Leo were having. I liked the swings
too, once I tried them. So maybe you'll like the water slide, if you give it a try. What do you
say?
Caillou: Okay.
Storyteller: Caillou was still a little bit afraid, but he really wanted to give the water slide
another try.
Miss Martin: You're doing great, Caillou. It'll be worth the climb, you'll see.
Storyteller: As Caillou went up the ladder, he imagined he was climbing a huge mountain.
Caillou: Here I go! Whee! Yeah! I did it!
Miss Martin: Yes, you did! And did you like it?
Caillou: Yeah! Guess what I am? Glop! Glop! Glop! I've got lots of arms.
Leo: An octopus!
Caillou: Right! Let's go down the slide again!
Leo: Okay! I could go down a million times.
Caillou: I could go down a million, billion times!
Mommy: Caillou?
Caillou: Hi, Mommy I was afraid to go on the water slide, today, but Miss Martin told me...
Storyteller: Caillou told his mommy all about the big waterslide.
Caillou: So I pretended I was climbing up a big mountain, and I wasn't afraid after that.
Mommy: Just like you were doing in the car this morning. That's my brave little mountain
climber.
Caillou: And now I could do it a million billion kajillion times!

195. Caillou the Sailor

Storyteller: Mommy and Daddy were getting dressed up to go out to a party.
Rosie: Pretty Mommy!
Mommy: Thank you, sweetie.
Rosie: Pretty Rosie!
Caillou: Who's going to babysit us?
Daddy: Grandpa's coming over. And he said he's bringing a surprise.
Storyteller: Caillou was excited that Grandpa was coming.
Caillou: Hmm.
Storyteller: He wondered what the surprise could be.
Caillou
Grandpa!
Rosie: Grandpa! Grandpa!

211
Caillou: Hi, Grandpa!
Rosie: Grandpa! Yeah!
Grandpa: Hello, Caillou! Hey, Rosie, my big girl. Quick, back inside now. It looks like a
storm is brewing out there.
Rosie: Rosie pretty!
Grandpa: You certainly are, sweetie pie!
Caillou: What's in the bag, Grandpa? Is that the surprise?
Grandpa: The surprise? No, these are just my dirty socks. I thought you could wash them
for me.
Caillou: Grandpa! You didn't bring your dirty socks.
Grandpa: I didn't? Hey, you're right. Come on, the two of you go put on your pyjamas. We
can see what I've really got in here.
Rosie: Grandpa! Grandpa! Grandpa! Grandpa!
Caillou: A book about ships.
Grandpa: Do you know what he's looking through?
Caillou: It's for looking at things far away.
Grandpa: That's right. It's called a telescope.
Caillou: Whoa! A real telescope! I can see Gilbert! He looks huge! This makes him look
really close.
Mommy: Goodnight, Caillou! Goodnight, Rosie!
Caillou: Goodnight!
Rosie: Night night!
Daddy: Be good for Grandpa.
Caillou: We will!
Rosie: Rosie look!
Storyteller: Caillou was afraid that Rosie might drop the telescope.
Caillou: Here, Rosie, I'll hold it for you. Close one eye and look through it. Not like that. Just
close one eye!
Storyteller: Grandpa read to Caillou and Rosie about sailing boats and brave sailors and the
big blue sea.
Grandpa: There's the Captain on the bow, the bow is the front of the boat. The back of the
boat is called the stern.
Caillou: Why is he yelling?
Grandpa: He's giving orders to the crew. And when he gives an order, the crew salutes and
says, 'Aye aye Captain!'.
Rosie: Aye aye Capa!
Grandpa: Would you like to be my crew?
Caillou: Yeah!
Rosie: Yeah !
Grandpa: All hands on deck!
Caillou: Aye, aye, Captain!
Rosie: Aye aye Capa!
Grandpa: Trim the sails!
Caillou: Aye aye Captain!

212
Grandpa: Batten down the hatches!
Caillou: Aye aye Captain! Batten down the hatches?
Grandpa: Yes, when a storm is coming, they have to shut all the windows so the water
doesn't get in. That's what that means. Is Rosie getting sleepy?
Caillou: Look at him!
Grandpa: He's climbing way up there to fix the sails.
Caillou: Oh! It must be scary going up that high.
Grandpa: I'll bet it is! Those sailors must have been very brave indeed. What do you think,
Rosie? Looks like it's somebody's bedtime. I'll be right back.
Storyteller: Caillou didn't like thunder. He knew there was nothing to be scared of, but it
was so loud, it frightened him sometimes. Caillou thought about the brave Captain of the
ship, he wasn't afraid of thunder.
Caillou: Looks like a storm's brewing. All hands on deck!
Crew: Aye aye, Captain Caillou!
Caillou: Trim the sails!
Crew: Aye aye, Captain Caillou!
Caillou: Batten down the hatches!
Crew: Aye aye, Captain Caillou!
Caillou: Ha ha! Daddy!
Mommy: Hi, honey. Did you have fun with Grandpa?
Caillou: Uh-huh. He read us a book about ships and sailors. He's putting Rosie to bed.
Grandpa: And now it's Captain Caillou's turn.
Daddy: Go on. We'll be up in a minute.
Grandpa: Hop on, I'll give you a piggy back ride. I hope the thunder won't keep you awake.
Caillou: Captain Caillou isn't afraid of thunder.
Grandpa: I'm glad to hear it. Good night, Captain Caillou!
Caillou: Good night, Grandpa!
Storyteller: The thunder didn't scare Caillou any more. Tonight, he was the very brave.
Captain Caillou!

[Song]sailing
Ahoy mates!
Time to set sail!
Come my friends,
and follow me.
Come my friends,
we're off to the sea.
With a high ho,
away we go.
Sailors to the bow.
Hoist the sails,
catch the wind.
We're really moving now!
Sailing, sailing,

213
over the ocean blue.
Sailing, sailing,
come and join Caillou's crew.
I hope nobody gets seasick.
Now if the wind picks up,
and a storm is near.
Don't be afraid,
cause Caillou's here.
I think I see a pirate ship.
We better make a turn.
Hey, is that a whale I see?
Swimming off the stern.
Sailing, sailing,
over the ocean blue.
Sailing, sailing,
come and join Caillou's crew.
Ahoy mates,
I think I see land.
Mommy: Caillou, time to get out of the bathtub.
Caillou: Okay, Mommy!

196. Caillou and the Creepy Crawlies

Storyteller: It was a lovely peaceful morning at Caillou's house.
Rosie: Dolly, dolly!
Storyteller: At least until Gilbert decided to do a little exploring.
Rosie: Gilbert!
Rosie: Eww!
Caillou: Rosie!
Rosie: Yucky!
Mommy: What's yucky? Oh, it's just a little spider, honey.
Caillou: Spiders aren't yucky, Rosie. I like spiders because they have eight legs.
Rosie: Yuck!
Mommy: Rosie isn't very fond of bugs.
Storyteller: Caillou liked insects. He wanted to show Rosie that they can be interesting and
fun. Maybe then she would like them too.
Caillou: Come on, Rosie! I'll draw all the bugs I know for you, and then maybe you'll like
them too.
Mommy: What a good idea! And why don't you bring your drawing things outside? We can
have a picnic.
Caillou: Okay!
Rosie: Picnic picnic!
Caillou: Come on, Gilbert. We're having a picnic.
Rosie: Rosie too!
Mommy: Thank you!

214
Caillou: One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight! See, Rosie? This is a spider. Isn't he
cute?
Rosie: Bugs icky! Oh!
Caillou: That's a bug and it's not icky. It's called a ladybug. Isn't she pretty?
Rosie: Pretty bug!
Caillou: I'll draw a ladybug for you, Rosie.
Rosie: Ladybug!
Mommy: Who's ready for lunch?
Caillou: I am!
Rosie: Me!
Caillou: Thank you!
Rosie: Thank you!
Rosie: Gilbert tickling me!
Caillou: Gilbert isn't tickling you, he's on the picnic table.
Rosie: Oh! Caillou!
Caillou: It's okay, Rosie. They're just ants, they won't hurt you.
Storyteller: Caillou knew the ants were just looking for food.
Caillou: See how they go in a straight line, Rosie? It's like the way we go into playschool
after recess.
Rosie: Oh!
Caillou: They're going to take the food back home and share it with all the other ants.
Rosie: Mommy! Ants go home!
Mommy: That's right, honey.
Caillou: Miss Martin read us a story about ants. She said every ant has a job. Some dig
tunnels and some take care of the babies.
Rosie: Oh!
Caillou: Wow! Look! Here's another bug, Rosie.
Rosie: Fuzzy!
Caillou: It's called a caterpillar. Here!
Rosie: Caterpiggle. Caterpiggle tickles!
Caillou: Do you wanna know what I learned about caterpillars? They go to sleep, and when
they wake up, they turn into butterflies.
Rosie: Flutterbye!
Caillou: You like butterflies, don't you, Rosie?
Rosie: Uh-huh. Rosie like flutterbye! Whoo!
Storyteller: Caillou thought about what it would be like to be as small as a bug.
Caillou: Ah! This is comfy! Hello, Mrs. Ladybug! Hello, ants! May I have some apple, please?
Thank you!
Rosie: Whee!
Caillou: Rosie? Where are you?
Rosie: Rosie flying!
Caillou: Whoa!
Rosie: Rosie on a flutterbye!
Caillou: Here, Rosie.

215
Rosie: Whoo! Flutterbye!
Mommy: Come on, you two. You haven't finished your lunch.
Caillou: I think Rosie likes bugs now.
Mommy: Good! Thank you for teaching us about insects, Caillou. You sure know a lot about
them.
Storyteller: Caillou was proud of what he'd learned at playschool, and he was glad that he
could teach his little sister about bugs.
Rosie: Nice caterpiggle! Look, Gilbert! Gilbert scaredy cat!
Caillou: I guess Gilbert doesn't like bugs, huh, Rosie? Not like us.
Rosie: Silly Gilbert!
Caillou: Gilbert!

197. Snowflakes
Caillou: I hope, I hope, I hope!
Storyteller: Caillou just couldn't wait for the first snow of winter. Every morning he wished
for snow.
Caillou: No snow yet.
Storyteller: Caillou knew he had to wait a littler longer, but it was hard. He wanted to play
in the snow.
Caillou: Hee-ha! No snow yet.
Storyteller: All morning Caillou watched and waited for the snow to fall.
Caillou: Still no snow.
Mommy: Don't worry, Caillou. The forecast said it would snow today.
Daddy: You just have to be patient.
Storyteller: Sometimes waiting for something is the hardest thing to do.
Caillou: Come on, Gilbert, you can do it. Jump, Gilbert!
Storyteller: Caillou was trying to teach Gilbert a new trick, but Gilbert wasn't very
interested.
Caillou: Come on, Gilbert, you can do it. Jump! Lie down, Gilbert! Lie down! Stay! Gilbert!
Ah! Mommy! Mommy!
Mommy: What is it, Caillou?
Caillou: It's snowing! It's snowing!
Mommy: Aren't the snowflakes pretty?
Caillou: Can I go outside and play?
Mommy: Of course you can.
Caillou: Yeah! Ha ha! Ha ha ha!
Storyteller: Caillou was in a big hurry to go outside.
Mommy: Whoa there! I think you'll be walking around in circles like that.
Caillou: I'll walk like a duck. Quack! Quack! I'm gonna build a snowman.
Mommy: I don't think there's enough snow for that yet, Caillou.
Storyteller: Caillou knew Mommy was right. There wasn't enough snow for a snowman, but
he could still make snow angels. Caillou started thinking about the snowman he was going
to build when there was more snow. Caillou imagined himself building the biggest
snowman ever.

216
Caillou: Ha ha! Wow! Ha ha ha!
Kids: Wow! Look at the size of that! Wow!
Caillou: Goodbye! Hee hee ha ha!
Sarah: What's so funny?
Caillou: Oh! Hi Sarah. I'm gonna build the biggest snowman in the whole world. But I have
to wait until there's more snow first. Look, I can catch snowflakes.
Sarah: I bet I can catch more snowflakes than you can. Ah-ha.
Sarah: Did you know that every snowflake is different?
Caillou: They look the same to me.
Sarah: That's because they're too small to really see.
Caillou: Wait here, I'll be right back.
Storyteller: Caillou knew exactly what they needed to look at small things.
Sarah: A magnifying glass! Good idea!
Caillou: They're falling too fast!
Sarah: Caillou! Quick!
Storyteller: Caillou wondered how they were ever going to look at the snowflakes if they
kept melting.
Caillou: Look! It's sticking over there. They are all different. It's true.
Sarah: I told you. Hey, how about we make our own snowflakes?
Caillou: How?
Sarah: Come on, I'll show you.
Storyteller: Sarah had learned how to make paper snowflakes at school, so she showed
Caillou how to make them too.
Sarah: First you take a piece of white paper, and fold it into a square.
Rosie: Rosie play too!
Sarah: Then you take the scissors.
Rosie: Rosie scissor!
Caillou: No Rosie. You're too small. Why don't you draw some snowflakes instead?
Rosie: Rosie draw snowflakes.
Caillou: These scissors are just for big kids like Sarah and me. What do I do next?
Sarah: Cut the corners very carefully, then cut all around the edges to make different
designs. Then you unfold the paper and... Ta da!
Caillou: Ta da!
Rosie: Ta da!
Sarah: Very good, Rosie!
Storyteller: Caillou was proud of his snowflake. And he noticed something very special
about it.
Caillou: Look! They're different. Just like real snowflakes. Gilbert, look! We made
snowflakes! Watch this, Sarah! Gilbert, jump! Yeah, Glibert!
Storyteller: I guess Caillou really did teach Gilbert a new trick after all.

198. Caillou Shoots! He Scores!

Storyteller: Caillou loved to skate. He especially loved to skate really, really fast.
Caillou: Look how fast I can go.

217
Daddy: Wow! You're as fast as a rocket.
Rosie: Whoa!
Mommy: Upsydaisy!
Rosie: Upsydaisy!
Storyteller: Caillou could remember when he was just as shaky on skates as his little sister.
He was very proud to be such a good skater now.
Caillou: Hi, Billy!
Billy: Hi, Caillou!
Storyteller: Caillou loved to watch the big kids play hockey. They could skate so fast! He
wanted to be just like them.
Daddy: What do you say, sport? Had enough? How about a cup of hot chocolate?
Caillou: Daddy, can I play hockey too?
Daddy: Oh, I don't know, Caillou.
Caillou: I'm big enought now and I'm a good skater. As fast as a rocket!
Daddy: Well, that's true, but I don't think you're big enough to play on a team.
Caillou: I could play with Billy.
Daddy: Well, let's ask him.
Caillou: Billy, can I play hockey with you some time?
Daddy: If you don't mind.
Billy: Sure, we're just fooling around. You can play with us whenever you like.
Caillou: Thanks, Billy.
Daddy: Well, I guess we're going to have to get you some equipment.
Caillou: Can I get a real hockey helmet? And gloves? Like Billy's?
Daddy: You bet. And a stick too, don't forget.
Caillou: Yeah!
Storyteller: The next day Daddy took Caillou to a sports store to buy hockey equipment.
Daddy: This is the second-hand equipment. When kids get too big for their gear, they trade
it in here for larger sizes.
Caillou: Look, Daddy!
Daddy: Too big! Here, try this!
Caillou: Too small!
Daddy: Just right!
Caillou: It doesn't hurt, Daddy.
Daddy: Good! Here, try these on.
Caillou: Let's go! I wanna show Mommy and Rosie.
Daddy: Wait a minute, aren't you forgetting the two most important things of all?
Caillou: I need a stick and a puck!
Storyteller: Daddy found a hockey stick, but it was too long for Caillou, so the man in the
store cut it to the exact right length. And now Caillou had everything he needed to play
hockey with Billy. He was so excited.
Caillou: And this is my hockey stick and my gloves and... Gilbert! You can't fit in there.
Mommy: Very nice, Caillou!
Caillou: You can knock on my head and it doesn't even hurt, Rosie.
Rosie: Caillou's head hard!

218
Storyteller: The next day Daddy helped Caillou practice shooting the puck.
Caillou: Yeah!
Daddy: That's a pretty good shot there, sport.
Caillou: Yeah!
Daddy: Nice shot, Caillou!
Storyteller: That afternoon Caillou couldn't wait to get on the ice. He knew he was ready to
play with the big kids.
Daddy: Take it slow, Caillou. Rememeber, it's not easy to play hockey.
Billy: Hey, Caillou!
Caillou: Oh! Oh!
Storyteller: Daddy was right. It was harder than Caillou thought it would be.
Daddy: They're pretty good, aren't they?
Caillou: I'm not good enough. I don't wanna play any more.
Billy: Hey, Caillou!
Daddy: I thought you did pretty well for your first time out. Remember, Billy and his friends
have been playing a lot longer than you.
Caillou: I guess so.
Daddy: I've got something for you. This used to be mine when I was young.
Caillou: Wow! Thanks, Daddy!
Daddy: It's a little big yet. If you keep practicing, by the time this fits you, you'll be able to
play just as well as Billy and his friends.
Caillou: Really?
Daddy: You bet. Now I think I know a good place to go and practice.
Storyteller: Caillou loved going over to skate at Leo's house, because he had a very own
backyard rink.
Leo: Whoa!
Caillou: Now you pass it to me.
Storyteller: Caillou was glad to be practicing with his best friend. He knew they would get
better together.
Caillou: Yeah!
Leo: Whoa! Huh!
Caillou: Leo shoots! He scores!
Daddy: With an assist by Caillou!
Storyteller: That night Caillou was very tired from all his hockey practice, but he was
happy. He knew that some day, when he was big enough to wear Daddy's jersey, he'd be a
really good hockey player.

199. [Song]practice makes perfect

Mommy: Once is not enough,
you gotta practice day and night.
Over and over and over again,
you've gotta pracitce till it's right.
Caillou: I remember when
I wanted to learn to skate.

219
So I practiced over and over again.
And soon I could skate great.
Mommy: Practice makes perfect,
that's what I say.
Practice makes perfect,
every day.
Practice makes perfect,
I'll say it again.
Practice and you'll succeed in the end.
Playing soccer is hard.
Caillou: It is.
Mommy: You've got to give it your best try.
Caillou: I will.
Practice over and over and over again.
And soon you'll kick real high.
Caillou & Mommy: Practice makes perfect,
That's what I say.
Practice makes perfect,
every day.
Practice makes perfect,
we'll say it again.
Practice and you'll succeed in the end.
Practice and you'll succeed in the end.

200. Caillou Goes Tobogganing

Storyteller: Caillou was very excited this morning. He couldn't wait to get to playschool.
Mommy: You're certainly keen to go to school today, Caillou.
Caillou: Today we're going tobogganing!
Mommy: Do you have to bring a toboggan?
Caillou: Yes, I'm going to take my green space racer.
Mommy: Oh, Caillou, why are you just telling me this now? It's time to go.
Caillou: Don't you know where my toboggan is?
Mommy: I'm not sure. We haven't been tobogganing yet this year, but let's look. Quickly!
Storyteller: Mommy and Caillou looked in the basement. And they looked under the stairs.
They even looked in the attic, but they couldn't find Caillou's toboggan anywhere.
Mommy: I'm sure we'll find your toboggan tonight.
Caillou: But I need it today!
Mommy: I'm sorry, Caillou, but we have to go. Maybe there will be extra toboggans at
school.
Storyteller: Caillou was sad that he didn't have his toboggan.
Mommy: There are no extra toboggans, Caillou. But I'm sure someone will share theirs with
you. Goodbye, Caillou. Try to smile, honey. I'm sure you'll still have fun.
Caillou: Bye, Mommy!
Kids: Oh look! Wow! All right!

220
Leo: I can't wait to go to the park. Did you bring your green space racer, Caillou?
Caillou: No. We couldn't find it.
Leo: You can use mine. We'll take turns.
Caillou: Thanks, Leo, but I wanna have my own toboggan.
Miss Martin: Come along, everyone, it's time for lunch. Are you finished your lunch?
Caillou: Yes.
Miss Martin: Good. Can you come with me for a minute? Well, what do you think?
Caillou: It's just an empty box.
Miss Martin: It is now, but I think you could make it into something else.
Caillou: What?
Miss Martin: A toboggan!
Caillou: A toboggan?
Miss Martin: Yes! We used boxes as toboggans all the time. Some of them were really fast.
Caillou: Would it be all right if I decorated it a little?
Miss Martin: That's a wonderful idea. I bet your friends will help too.
Storyteller: Caillou spent lots of time decorating his box. He wanted it to look extra special.
Jeffrey: Are you trying to make it look like a race car, Caillou?
Caillou: No. I want it to look like the bobsleds I saw on TV. Green means go. Ha ha ha!
Whoa-hoo! All finished!
Jason: It looks great!
Leo: Yeah! I bet it'll go a hundred miles an hour! Zoom!
Caillou: I hope so. Thanks for helping me decorate it. Hee hee hee hee hee!
Leo: What?
Miss Martin: I'm not sure what has more paint on it, the toboggan or your faces? Let's
clean up, everyone. It's almost time to go to the park.
Storyteller: When Caillou and his friends got to the park, they had all sorts of fun playing in
the snow.
Miss Martin: Who's ready to go tobogganing?
Kids: I do! Me!
Leo: Come on, Caillou. What are you waiting for?
Caillou: What if my toboggan won't slide?
Leo: Miss Martin said it would. Come on, I'll race you to the top of the hill.
Miss Martin: Is everyone ready?
Leo: Ready?
Caillou: Mmm. Ready!
Leo: Ready! Set! Go!
Caillou: Yahoo! Look out, everybody!
Leo: Wow! You went the further!
Jason: Can I try out your toboggan, Caillou?
Leo: I want a turn too.
Caillou: Sure, everybody can have a turn.
Storyteller: Caillou was proud of the toboggan he'd made, and was glad it was big enough
to share with all his friends.

221
201. Caillou Plays the Drums
Storyteller:
Caillou liked to play at Clementine's house. She had a big box of funny clothes to play dress
up with.
Clementine:
Oh! Look at me. I'm a movie star.
Caillou:
Hello there, movie star lady. Mmm... What was that?
Clementine:
Oh, that's just Billy.
Caillou:
What's he doing?
Clementine:
Come on, I'll show you.
Caillou:
He sure is making a lot of noise.
Clementine:
Billy.
Billy:
Come in.
Caillou:
Oh!
Billy:
Hi, Caillou. How do you like my brand new drums?
Caillou:
Wow!
Billy:
I'm learning how to play the drums so I can be in a rock band.
Caillou:
They dress funny.
Billy:
They dress cool.
Clementine:
I think they dress funny too.
Storyteller:
Caillou really liked Billy's new drums, and drumming sure looked like fun.
Caillou:
Can I try your drums, Billy? Billy!
Clementine:
Billy!
Billy:
Hmm?
Caillou:

222
Can I try your drums?
Clementine:
Yeah, me too. Can we?
Billy:
Oh... I don't think so.
Clementine:
Why not?
Billy:
They're brand new, and you're too little to play them. You might wreck something.
Clementine:
We're not too little.
Billy:
Well they're my drums and those are my rules. Drums are for grownups, not little kids.
Sorry.
Clementine:
It's not fair. We're not so little.
Caillou:
We're not as little as Rosie.
Clementine:
We can do things that grownups do.
Caillou:
Like what?
Clementine:
We have to show Billy that we're not little kids. I know. Come on! Hi, Mommy. We're
making a snack for Billy.
Caillou:
And I'm going to get the milk.
Storyteller:
Caillou was very proud that he poured Billy's milk without spilling a single drop.
Clementine's Mommy:
There you go, Caillou.
Clementine:
Can you cut the crusts off, Mommy? Billy likes his sandwiches without them.
Clementine's Mommy:
Hmm-hmm. There you go, Clementine.
Clementine:
Thank you. Let's go, Caillou.
Clementine:
Billy.
Billy:
Come in.
Clementine:
I made you a peanut butter sandwich all by myself. Except Mommy cut the crusts off, but
that was my idea.

223
Caillou:
Here, Billy. I was careful and didn't spill any.
Billy:
You've never brought me a snack before.
Clementine:
That's because we were just little kids before.
Caillou:
Yeah. Now we're grownup.
Billy:
Mmm? Oh, I get it. You wanna play my drums. Sorry, you're still not grownup enough.
Thanks for the snack though.
Storyteller:
Caillou wondered how he and Clementine could show Billy they were grownup enough to
play his drums. Then he had a wonderful idea.
Billy:
Come in.
Caillou:
Hello, there.
Clementine:
Pleased to meet you.
Caillou:
Those are very nice drums. May I try them? I am a grownup, you know.
Clementine:
What is so funny?
Billy:
All right, all right! You can try them!
Caillou & Clementine:
Yeah!
Billy:
This is called the snare drum. These are toms and these are called cymbals.
Clementine:
You can go first since dressing up was your idea.
Caillou:
Thanks, Clementine.
Billy:
There's a pedal down there. Push it with your foot.
Caillou:
Okay! Wow!
Billy:
That's called the bass drum.
Storyteller:
Caillou really liked how each drum sounded different, but he liked the sound of the cymbal
the best.
Clementine:

224
Way to go, Caillou!
Caillou:
Yeah! Thank you! Thank you! Hello, there. Can I help you?
Mommy:
Hello! Hello, sir. I'm looking for a little boy named Caillou. Have you seen him? Mmm...
Caillou:
Mommy, it's me. I'm a grownup.
Mommy:
Caillou? No, I don't believe it!
Caillou:
Look!
Mommy:
It is you! Well, if you're all grownup, you probably won't wanna play on the swings at the
park. That's what I thought we might do this afternoon.
Caillou:
I'm not really a grownup. I'm just pretending.
Mommy:
Oh, good. Take care, Clementine! Bye!
Storyteller:
Caillou liked acting grownup, but he decided that it was time to have fun being a kid again.

202. Caillou's Marching Band

Leo:
Tag! You're it, Emma.
Caillou:
You can't catch me.
Storyteller:
Caillou wondered what that strange noise could be.
Emma:
Tag! You're it.
Caillou:
Tag! You're it.
Leo:
What's that?
Caillou:
I don't know.
Storyteller:
The sound was growing louder and louder. Caillou wanted to find out what it was.
Miss Martin:
A marching band. What a lovely surprise! They're going to be in a parade next week. They
must be practicing. Does anyone know what instruments they're playing?
Caillou:
That's a drum.

225
Miss Martin:
Right!
Leo:
That's a trumpet. And that's a... what is that?
Miss Martin:
That's a tuba. And that's a saxophone.
Storyteller:
Caillou couldn't take his eyes, or ears, off the marching band. The music made him want to
march too.
Caillou:
Didn't you like the marching band, Emma?
Emma:
They're too loud.
Caillou:
Marching's not loud. Wanna march with me?
Miss Martin:
Perhaps you could lead everyone in a march back inside, Caillou.
Caillou:
Okay! Follow me!
Miss Martin:
Try counting to four, Caillou. Not too fast. Like this, one two three four, one two three four.
Caillou:
Okay.
Miss Martin:
Everybody else, listen carefully to Caillou when he counts, then step in time to his beat.
Caillou:
One two three four.
Leo:
Marching is fun.
Miss Martin:
Well done, everybody! That's the perfect pace, Caillou.
Miss Martin:
Aren't you going to stop marching?
Kids:
No!
Caillou:
I wish we were a real marching band.
Leo:
Me too.
Miss Martin:
Who else would like to be in a real marching band?
Kids:
I do! Me too!
Miss Martin:

226
Well, why don't you start your own band?
Kids:
Yeah!
Caillou:
But we don't have any drums or trumpet or snaksophone.
Miss Martin:
Drums, trumpet or saxophone. Well I'm sure if you use your imaginations, there are plenty
of things in the playroom that can make music.
Storyteller:
Caillou and his friends searched for things to use as instruments. Things that would make a
nice loud noise.
Caillou:
This looks like a good drum. Don't you want an instrument too, Emma?
Storyteller:
Caillou remembered that Emma didn't like loud noises. Maybe she wanted to do something
quieter.
Caillou:
I like your star. It looks like the ones on the marching band hats.
Emma:
It does? I could make hats for everyone.
Caillou:
Yeah! You can be our marching band helper.
Miss Martin:
You look like you could use a strap to hold your drum, Caillou.
Caillou:
Thanks, Miss Martin.
Storyteller:
Now Caillou felt like a real marching band drummer.
Miss Martin:
Does everyone like their band hats?
Caillou:
Yeah! Thanks, Emma!
Miss Martin:
Emma just needs to do one thing before you start playing. All right, Caillou, take it away.
Caillou:
Wait! Stop!
Storyteller:
Caillou didn't like the sound the band was making. Maybe slowing things down again would
help them sound better.
Caillou:
I'm gonna start like we did before. One two three four.
Miss Martin:
There's a lot more room to march outside, if you'd like.
Mommy:

227
Oh no, please don't stop. You're marching band sounds wonderful, Caillou.
Caillou:
One two three four!

203. Caillou Sings

Miss Martin:
Who wants to help with the clean up today?
Caillou:
I do.
Storyteller:
Caillou liked helping out at snack time.
Miss Martin:
Thank you, Melanie. Thank you, Caillou. Caillou? Where are you?
Caillou:
Here I am!
Miss Martin:
Good job, Caillou. At the end of the day today, we're going to have a talent show. Everyone

228
will be in it. You can make something or perform, just pick anything you want to do.
Emma:
May I draw a picture?
Miss Martin:
Certainly!
Xavier:
I can build a tower.
Miss Martin:
Good!
Storyteller:
Caillou decided he'd like to sing a song for the talent show.
Miss Martin:
Yes, Clementine?
Clementine:
I'm going to sing a song.
Miss Martin:
What about you, Caillou?
Caillou:
I was going to say 'sing a song'.
Miss Martin:
That's all right. You can both sing.
Leo:
May I recite a rhyme, Miss Martin?
Miss Martin:
Of course, Leo.
Leo:
I'm gonna recite a rhyme. I know lots of rhymes.
Caillou:
I'm going to sing "Old Macdonald Had a Farm".
Clementine:
Old Macdonald had a farm, E-I-E-I-O!
Miss Martin:
Very good, Clementine.
Storyteller:
Caillou didn't like the way Clementine kept picking the same thing he wanted to do.
Caillou:
Miss Martin, that's the same song I was going to sing.
Miss Martin:
I'm sure we can think of another song you can do. Mm? How about "Ring Around the
Rosie"?
Caillou:
Okay.
Clementine:
Old Macdonald had a farm, E-I-E-I-O... I forget what comes next.

229
Caillou:
And on that farm he had some cows...
Clementine:
E-I-E-I-O!
Miss Martin:
Okay everyone, it's time to take a break and go outside.
Leo:
I know the beginnings of lots of rhymes, I, I just don't know any endings.
Caillou:
Ring around the Rosie, a pocket full of posies. Husha husha, we all fall down.
Storyteller:
"Ring around the Rosie" was Caillou's little sister's favourite song. Caillou decided he didn't
want to sing it, because it was a song for little little kids.
Clementine:
With a moo-moo here, and a moo-moo... on the farm... Oh, that's not right. And on that
farm they had a... um...
Caillou:
A pig! E-I-E-I-O!
Clementine:
Oh, yeah. With an oink oink here and there and there.
Caillou:
No, it goes... With an oink oink here and an oink oink there. Here an oink, there an oink,
everywhere an oink oink. You're a good dancer, Clementine.
Clementine:
Thanks, but I wish I could remember all the words to the song.
Caillou:
I know all the words. We could sing it together, if you like.
Clementine:
Okay! Let's practice!
Caillou & Clementine:
Old Madonald had a farm, E-I-E-I-O...
Storyteller:
Caillou was glad that they were going to sing the song together.
Leo:
Roses are red, violets are... what are violets?
Clementine:
And on that farm he had some...
Caillou:
Sheep! E-I-E-I-O.
Miss Martin:
Okay kids, let's go in, it's nap time.
Storyteller:
Caillou hoped that he and Clementine would be able to remember all the words to their
song. And he hoped that everyone would like it.

230
Caillou & Clementine:
Old Macdonald had a farm, E-I-E-I-O! And on that farm he had some cows, E-I-E-I-O! With
a Moo-Moo here and a Moo-Moo there. Here a Moo, there a Moo, everywhere a... Old
Macdonald had a farm. E-I-E-I...
Caillou:
And on that farm he had some cows, E-I-E-I-O! With a Moo-Moo here and a Moo-Moo
there... Here a Moo, there a Moo, everywhere a...
Miss Martin:
Have we got a cow in here?
Caillou & Clementine:
And on that farm, he had some cows, E-I-E-I-O!
Clementine:
I still can't remember what comes next.
Storyteller:
Caillou had an idea that would make it easier to sing their song.
Caillou:
I know what we can do. We can take turns singing. You sing the parts you know and I'll
sing the parts I know.
Clementine:
That's a good idea, Caillou.
Storyteller:
Caillou and Clementine practiced their song until it was time for the talent show.
Miss Martin:
All right! Time for the talent show.
Leo:
I couldn't remember any rhymes all the way through, so I made up my own rhyme. Roses
are red, I sleep in my bed, and this is my head.
Miss Martin:
That's beautiful, Emma!
Caillou:
Old Macdonald had a farm, E-I-E-I-O. And on that farm he had some cows, E-I-E-I-O.
Clementine:
With a Moo-Moo here and a Moo-Moo there, Here a Moo, there a Moo, everywhere a Moo
Moo.
Caillou & Clementine:
Old Macdonald had a farm, E-I-E-I-O!
Miss Martin:
That was great! This is the first time we've had a song and dance team. Thank you, Caillou
and Clementine. And thank you, everybody!
Storyteller:
Caillou was glad that he and Clementine had worked together on their song. It was a lot
more fun than singing alone.

231
204. Caillou of the Antarctic
Storyteller:
In the summertime, Caillou likes to play outside with his friends Jason and Jeffrey, even
when it's a very, very hot day!
Jeffrey:
Over here, Caillou!
Jason:
Pass it to me!
Caillou:
My turn! Over here! Look at me! Oops!
Jeffrey:
I want to try! Aw!
Caillou:
Aw!
Jeffrey:
Are you okay?
Storyteller:
Caillou's head hurt a little bit, but not too much. Caillou was upset that Jeffrey had fallen
on him.
Daddy:
It sure is hot today.
Caillou:
Daddy! Jeffrey fell on me!
Jeffrey:
I didn't mean to!
Daddy:
Well, it doesn't look like a serious injury.
Rosie:
Rosie kiss it better!
Daddy:
Better?
Caillou:
Yeah.
Jeffrey:
Sorry, Caillou.
Daddy:
That's okay, Jason. We know it was an accident.
Jeffrey:
I'm Jeffrey.
Daddy:
I just can't tell you two apart. Jeffrey didn't mean it, Caillou. Things like this happen when
you're playing and having fun.
Storyteller:

232
Caillou was still upset with Jeffrey. He thought his friend should have been more careful.
Caillou:
The ice cream man! Oh!
Daddy:
Ice cream sounds like a pretty good idea to me.
Jeffrey & Jason & Caillou:
Yeah! All right!
Daddy:
Here, Rosie, I'll give you a ride.
Caillou:
Mr. Ice Cream Man!
Jason:
Wait!
Jeffrey:
Stop!
Rosie:
Yeah!
Daddy:
Ice cream for all my friends.
Caillou:
It's nice and cold in there.
Jeffrey:
I wish it was cold outside.
Caillou:
It's only that cold when it's winter, but now it's summer and summer is hot!
Jason:
It's cold all year in Antarctica.
Caillou:
Auntie who?
Jason:
It's not an auntie person, Caillou, it's a really cold place. I saw it in a book.
Caillou:
Mmm...
Daddy:
Antarctica is where penguins live. Penguins love to be cold. Now everybody hurry and pick
out what you want, or everything's going to melt. Lick a little faster, Rosie.
Caillou:
Tell us more about Antarctica, Daddy.
Daddy:
Well, the south pole is there. And icebergs.
Jeffrey:
I thought it was called the North Pole. That's where Santa lives.
Daddy:
There are two Poles. The North Pole is on the top of the earth and the South Pole is on the

233
bottom.
Jeffrey:
What's an iceberg? Is it made out of ice cream?
Daddy:
No, it's a huge island made of snow and ice.
Rosie:
Sticky!
Daddy:
Let's go and get you cleaned up, Rosie.
Storyteller:
Caillou thought it would be wonderful if icebergs really were made of ice cream.
Caillou:
Hello, penguins! Wow! That looks like fun! Whee! Whoa! A chocolate ice cream-berg! That
chocolate iceberg was delicious. Look at me! I'm a penguin!
Jeffrey:
Me too!
Rosie:
Caillou! Whoa, oh!
Caillou:
Brrrr! It sure is cold here in Antarctica.
Daddy:
You're cold?! Well, I guess you don't wanna play in the sprinkler then.
Caillou:
Oh! We're not really cold. We're just pretending. We're really, really hot.
Daddy:
Hot? No, I don't believe you.
Caillou:
Oh! Oh, oh, so hot!
Rosie:
Fall down?
Daddy:
Okay, you've convinced me. Maybe this will cool you down.
Jeffrey:
Aw!
Storyteller:
Caillou didn't mean to step on Jeffrey's foot. He felt bad.
Caillou:
I'm sorry, Jeffrey. Are you okay?
Jeffrey:
Yeah, I'm okay. Look out!
Storyteller:
Caillou was glad that Jeffrey wasn't mad at him. And Caillou wasn't upset with Jeffrey
anymore, because he knew Jeffrey didn't mean to fall on him. So they were all best friends

234
again.

205. Deep Sea Caillou

Jason:
Hoo! Hoo! You're it! Hoo! Hoo!
Leo:
Can't catch me!
Caillou:
Oh!
Leo:
I'm as fast as a shark!
Caillou:
You're it! Hi, I'm Caillou. What's your name?
Lee Wun:
Lee Wun.
Lee Wun's Mommy:
You stay here while I talk to your teacher, okay?
Caillou:
We're playing animal tag. I'm an eagle. You can be any animal you want. Jason's an owl,
Jeffrey's a lion, Clementine's a horse, and Leo is a shark. Or maybe he's an octopus now.
I'm not sure.
Leo:
Is that a new kid?
Caillou:
Yeah, her name is Lee Wun. She's kind of shy.
Leo:
You're it!
Miss Martin:
Children!
Storyteller:
Caillou remembered his first day at playschool. He was a little shy too, until he started to
make friends.
Miss Martin:
Children, this is Lee Wun. This is her very first day at playschool. That's Emma, Xavier,
Caillou, Leo, Clementine, Mara, Melanie, Wendy, Jeffrey and Jason. I've got an extra special
surprise for everyone today. We have an aquarium. It's a present from the elementary
school. They just got a new aquarium, so they gave us their old one.
Storyteller:
Caillou was very excited about the new aquarium. He'd never seen such beautiful fish
before.
Jason:
What kind of fish are they?
Miss Martin:

235
Well, I know that those are goldfish, and those two are angelfish.
Leo:
What's the one with the long pointy tail? Is that a baby shark?
Miss Martin:
No, a shark wouldn't fit in this aquarium.
Caillou:
What's the stripey one called?
Lee Wun:
It's called...
Miss Martin:
Yes, Lee Wun? Do you know what it's called? I'm afraid I don't know what they all are. I'll
bring in a book about fish tomorrow so we can all learn their names.
Caillou:
Look, there's a little crab in that seashell.
Miss Martin:
We're also going to learn how to take care of an aquarium. The most important thing, of
course, is that the fish must be fed every day.
Kids:
Can I feed them? Can I please, Miss Martin?
Miss Martin:
We'll take turns feeding them. Now I'll reach into the magic hat and pull out today's name,
which is, Caillou.
Caillou:
Wow! I'm the fish feeder.
Miss Martin:
We don't want to feed them too much. This should be enough.
Storyteller:
Caillou was very careful not to spill any of the fish food. He was very proud to have this
important job.
Jason:
Wow! Look at them go. They must be really hungry.
Miss Martin:
Now, how about we all get our paints and brushes and paint some pictures of our new fishy
friends?
Storyteller:
Caillou thought the fish still looked hungry. Maybe they needed more food. Caillou
imagined he was swimming in the aquarium with all the fish.
Caillou:
Hello, goldfish! Peekaboo! Whee! It's suppertime.
Lee Wun:
You're giving them too much food.
Caillou:
But they were still hungry.
Lee Wun:

236
Some fish, especially greedy goldfish, just keep eating and eating. They sometimes die
from too much food.
Caillou:
Oh no!
Storyteller:
Caillou certainly didn't want to hurt the fish by giving them too much food.
Lee Wun:
You see that green stuff? It's called algae. Too much of it is bad for the fish too.
Caillou:
Here, I'll clean it off.
Lee Wun:
Snails eat algae. I'll bring some in from home.
Caillou:
You have snails? Wow! And they like to eat this green guck?
Lee Wun:
Sure, to them it's as delicious as chocolate cake.
Caillou:
Do you have an aquarium at home?
Lee Wun:
Yes, my Dad and I take care of it. It's bigger than this one and has lots more fish.
Caillou:
Do you ever pretend you're a deep sea diver and you're swimming in your aquarium?
Lee Wun:
Sure, all the time. See that fish there? That's a swordtail. Sometimes I pretend that I'm
holding its tail and riding all around the aquarium.
Caillou:
I did too! What are the other fish called?
Lee Wun:
That striped one is called a zebra fish, the black one is a tetra, and the one with the big top
fin is a sailfin molly. And that's a hermit crab. They find old seashells and move into them,
like moving into a new house.
Miss Martin:
Lee Wun! You certainly know a lot about fish. Maybe you can tell us more about them to
help us make our pictures.
Caillou:
Lee Wun's got a really big aquarium at home and she's going to bring in some snails to eat
up all the yucky algae.
Leo:
Is your aquarium big enough for sharks?
Lee Wun:
It's not that big.
Caillou:
I'm going to paint a picture of us being pulled by a swordtail fish.
Storyteller:

237
Caillou knew that Lee Wun wouldn't be so shy anymore, because she was making lots of
friends.

[Song] come explore with me

Exploring, exploring.
Take a trip with me.

Then let's explore the ocean.
We'll go on a dive.
Look at all those fish.
Hey, I think that rock's alive.
Let's explore the planets.
Let's travel to the stars.
Let's get in our rocket ship
And blast off for Mars.

Learn about new places and make a lot of friends.
Exploring, exploring.
Take a trip with me.
Exploring, exploring.
There's lots for us to see.
Let's go!

206. Caillou in the Bayou

Storyteller:
One very hot summer's day, Caillou and his family went on a trip to the country.
Daddy:
There should be a sign for the lake around here somewhere.
Storyteller:
Caillou liked looking at all the road signs.
Caillou:
That's a deer.

238
Mommy:
Right, Caillou. That's a deer crossing sign.
Caillou:
Do deer read signs like people?
Mommy:
No.
Caillou:
Then how do they know to cross here?
Mommy:
The sign is for us to know that deer cross here, so we can drive carefully.
Caillou:
Oh. Is that the lake sign?
Daddy:
I'm not sure, but let's give it a try. I hope this is the right place.
Caillou:
Come on, Rosie, we're going swimming.
Rosie:
Swimming!
Storyteller:
Caillou couldn't wait to cool off in the water.
Caillou:
Oh!
Daddy:
Looks like we found a swamp instead of a lake. Let's take a closer look.
Storyteller:
Caillou thought the water looked dirty. He couldn't even see the bottom.
Caillou:
It smells funny.
Rosie:
Yucky! Oh!
Mommy:
I don't think the animals that live here would like to hear you talking that way about their
home.
Caillou:
What animals?
Daddy:
Shh. They're very shy. We'll have to be very quiet and listen to find them.
Storyteller:
Caillou wondered what was making that sound.
Daddy:
Ah, mosquitoes! Good thing, Mommy brought the repellent.
Mommy:
That's right. We don't wanna be covered in itchy bug bites. Be careful not to get it into your
eyes, Caillou.

239
Caillou:
Phew!
Daddy:
The mosquitoes think it smells bad too, so hopefully they'll stay away. Some swamps are so
big, you could explore them for days. And they're full of flamingos and alligators.
Caillou:
Alligators!? Really?
Daddy:
Don't worry. There aren't any alligators in this swamp.
Storyteller:
Caillou was glad there weren't any alligators here. But now the swamp seemed a lot more
interesting than it did before.
Rosie:
Pretty!
Daddy:
I bet this dragonfly is looking for other bugs to eat.
Caillou:
That bug is walking on top of the water.
Storyteller:
Caillou was finding new things everywhere he looked.
Caillou:
What are those?
Mommy:
Those are tadpoles. One day they'll grow up to be frogs.
Caillou:
Really?
Daddy:
Let's take a closer peek.
Caillou:
It's a big brother and a little sister. That's the grownup daddy frog.
Daddy:
Okay, daddy frog. Here are your babies back.
Mommy:
This looks like a good spot to have our lunch. Careful, Caillou.
Caillou:
I can do it!
Storyteller:
Caillou was proud that he made it to the other side without any help.
Daddy:
These binoculars should help you spot some animals.
Caillou:
Wow! I can see far.
Storyteller:
Caillou imagined he was an explorer in a huge swamp.

240
Caillou:
Oh! A baby alligator! Oh! A mommy alligator, too! Wow!
Storyteller:
Caillou was glad he had the binoculars, so he could see the alligator from far away and not
get too close.
Daddy:
Oh, Caillou! Look at you!
Caillou:
Look, Daddy!
Daddy:
Mmm, that log does look a lot like an alligator.
Caillou:
And a baby alligator.
Mommy:
Look, over there! It's a blue heron. He's hunting for fish.
Caillou:
He's having his lunch.
Daddy:
These pesky mosquitoes are eating me alive.
Caillou:
Fishes are bird food, sandwiches are people food and we're mosquito food.
Storyteller:
Caillou thought the swamp was fun, but he was glad there weren't any real alligators there.
Mommy:
You sure got dirty today. You'll have wash up as soon as we get home.
Caillou:
Oh! That's the sign for the lake. Can I wash there? Rosie, I'm an alligator!
Storyteller:
When Caillou dried off, he found a couple of red bumps.
Caillou:
I got mosquito bites.
Mommy:
Try not to scratch, honey. This will help take the itch away. There you go, Caillou, the
marks of a good swamp explorer.
Rosie:
Rosie too! Rosie too!
Daddy:
And Daddy too!

207. Magnet Madness

Caillou:
I'm done!
Mommy:
You are? Let's see.

241
Caillou:
It's me on the swings with Clementine. I can swing higher.
Mommy:
It's beautiful, Caillou! Let's put this up on the fridge for everyone to look at. Put a magnet
on your picture to make it stick.
Caillou:
Okay. Thanks, Mommy.
Mommy:
Here's a magnet.
Caillou:
It jumped.
Mommy:
Here's another one.
Caillou:
Wow, it's magic!
Mommy:
Did you know that magnets stick to lots of things?
Caillou:
Really?
Storyteller:
Caillou wanted to see what else magnets could stick to.
Caillou:
Hey, Rosie, these are magnets.
Rosie:
Ooh!
Caillou:
They stick to things! See? They stick!
Rosie:
Oh!
Caillou:
Look! It's Magnet Man! Hey! The magnet likes my car! Gilbert? Do you want a magnet on
you?
Rosie:
Rosie magnet!
Caillou:
You can have the "R" because "R" is for Rosie!
Rosie:
Oh! Rosie stick.
Caillou:
Come out, Gilbert! Don't you wanna play magnets with me? Hmm... What are you doing,
Daddy?
Daddy:
I'm building a bird house.
Caillou:

242
Hmm... Hmm...
Daddy:
And what are you doing?
Caillou:
Sticking magnets on things. But they don't always stick. Yeah!
Daddy:
Do you know why it sticks to the step-stool but not the workbench?
Caillou:
Why?
Daddy:
Because my workbench is made of wood, and these steps are metal. Magnets only stick to
metal. So the only way to know if it'll stick, is to try it and find out.
Storyteller:
Caillou was learning all about magnets. But he was going to need a lot more magnets to
play with. He stuck magnets on the stove, on the toaster, and on the big spoon.
Mommy:
Huh! I think we have a magnet fiend on the loose.
Storyteller:
Caillou had lots of fun putting magnets everywhere.
Caillou:
They can stick upside-down. I wish I could do that.
Clementine:
Wow! How come you can do that, Caillou?
Caillou:
Cause I'm Magnet Man.
Littl Girl:
Uh-oh!
Caillou:
I can get it down! I'm Magnet Man!
Mommy:
Caillou! Caillou! There you are! I've been finding magnets stuck all over the house.
Caillou:
That's what magnets do. They stick to things.
Mommy:
Not by themselves, they don't. It's time to put them back on the fridge. Do you think we
can find all the letters?
Storyteller:
So, Caillou had to find all the magnets he had stuck around the house, and unstick them.
Caillou:
Here's "A" and "B"!
Storyteller:
He found most of them.
Mommy:
I think we're still missing some.

243
Caillou:
Rosie has "R", "R" for Rosie.
Caillou:
I'm finding all the magnets now.
Daddy:
Would you like to help me finish my birdhouse, Caillou?
Caillou:
Yeah!
Daddy:
We need to put on this little metal loop, to hang it up. Oops! Uh-oh.
Caillou:
Hmm, I see it!
Daddy:
Me too. But I don't think I can reach it to pick it up.
Caillou:
My magnet could pick it up, if it could reach.
Daddy:
That's true. Maybe it would reach if we tied a string to it. I didn't know you could go fishing
with magnets.
Caillou:
I got it!
Daddy:
Bravo! It looks like we have a magnet expert in the family.
Storyteller:
Caillou was glad he learned all about magnets. And he was very proud that he could help
his Daddy.
Mommy:
Good night, Caillou.
Caillou:
Good night.
Mommy:
Aha! Here's another one!
Daddy:
Rosie wants to say good night.
Rosie:
Nighty night, Caillou.
Caillou:
Good night Rosie!
Daddy:
Hey!
Caillou:
I'm Magnet Man!
Daddy:

244
Unhand me, Magnet Man! Oh, Caillou!

208. Caillou the Dinosaur Hunter

Rosie:
Caillou! Caillou! Caillou! Wake up! Morning!
Caillou:
The museum! We're going to the dinosaur museum today.
Rosie:
Yeah!
Storyteller:
Caillou had forgotten about their trip to the museum today. Caillou suddenly realized that
he couldn't go to a dinosaur museum without his favorite dinosaur Rexy.
Mommy:
Caillou! Hurry up, we're all ready to go.
Caillou:
Coming, Mommy! Do you think we'll see Rexy's family there?
Mommy:
Yes, I think we will.
Caillou:
Yeah!
Rosie:
Yeah!
Caillou:
How come there aren't any more dinosaurs?
Daddy:
No one really knows for sure, Caillou.
Rosie:
Dine-sore gone!
Caillou:
Hey! Give him back!
Storyteller:
Finally they arrived at the museum. Caillou couldn't wait to see the dinosaurs.
Caillou:
Come on, Mommy, let's go in.
Mommy:
Caillou?
Caillou:
Oops, sorry.
Mommy:
Caillou, we have to wait for our turn, just like everyone else.
Caillou:
Okay.
Mommy:

245
Aren't you forgetting somebody?
Caillou:
Rexy!
Mommy:
Are you sure you don't want to leave Rexy in the car? That way you won't lose him.
Caillou:
No, I'll take good care of him.
Rosie:
Dinosaurs big.
Daddy:
Don't worry, honey, they can't hurt you.
Caillou:
What happened to their skin? How come they're only bones?
Mommy:
The bones are all that's left of the dinosaurs, Caillou. When the scientists first found these
bones, they had to put them back together, just like a puzzle, and only then did they know
what dinosaurs looked like.
Caillou:
Really?
Mommy:
Look! Those are the bones of a Tyrannosaurus Rex, a T-Rex. That's the same kind of
dinosaur as Rexy.
Caillou:
Oh, whoa! He's huge!
Rosie:
Dinosaur like Rexy.
Caillou:
That's right, Rosie, he is. I never knew there were so many different kinds of dinosaurs.
Wow! Look at that, a flying dinosaur!
Daddy:
Yap. It's a pterodactyl.
Storyteller:
Caillou imagined what a real pterodactyl would be like.
Caillou:
Whee! Whee! Hi!
Storyteller:
Caillou couldn't see Mommy, Daddy or Rosie anywhere. He decided to stay right where he
was, because that's what Mommy said he should do if he ever got lost.
Guard:
Hi, there. Is everything okay?
Storyteller:
Caillou wasn't supposed to talk to strangers, but he knew it was okay to talk to the people
who worked at the museum.
Caillou:

246
I can't find my Mommy and Daddy.
Guard:
Oh
Caillou:
So I'm gonna sit right here until they come back.
Guard:
That's a very good idea. I'll just wait here with you, okay?
Mommy:
Caillou?
Caillou:
Mommy! Here I am!
Mommy:
I'm glad you stayed where you were, it made it easy for me to find you. I hope you weren't
scared.
Caillou:
Nope! I was talking to the nice guard.
Rosie:
Mommy find Caillou.
Daddy:
Just like the scientists found the dinosaurs.
Caillou:
Yeah! I'm just like a dinosaur!
Rosie:
Ooh, elephant!
Daddy:
That's a wooly mammoth.
Caillou:
He needs a haircut. Is he really an elephant?
Daddy:
He's the great, great, great grandfather of all the elephants.
Caillou:
Wow!
Mommy:
So did you have fun?
Caillou & Rosie:
Yeah!
Mommy:
And now you know what Rexy's family looked like.
Caillou:
Rexy! Mommy, I don't have Rexy! I left him somewhere!
Daddy:
Okay, don't worry. We'll find him. The first place we'll look is the "lost and found". That's
where people take the things that they find. So if somebody found Rexy, they might bring
him here.

247
Storyteller:
At the "lost and found", Caillou explained to the lady he was looking for Rex, but she didn't
have him. Daddy and Caillou looked everywhere for Rexy.
Daddy:
We can always check back again at the "lost and found".
Caillou:
Daddy, look! The guard dug Rexy up with the dinosaur bones.
Guard:
Well, hello again! Did you lose someone this time?
Caillou:
Yes! Thank you! I'm so glad we found you! Look, Mommy, we found him!
Mommy:
That's great! Was he hard to find?
Caillou:
Nope! Because he stayed right where he was, just like he should.
Mommy:
Then Rexy is a very smart dinosaur.
Caillou:
He sure is.

209. Let's go to the museum

Daddy:
What do you wanna do today, Caillou?
Caillou:
I want to visit another museum.
Daddy:
Okay, let's go!
Caillou:
We're going to a museum.
I really want to go.
We're going to a museum.
There's lots I want to know.
Daddy:
Paintings and works of art.
There's lots to see, where should we start?
Fossils and shiny rocks.
Famous books.
Caillou:
And a weird clock.
How do they tell time, Daddy?
That looks old and that looks new, that looks like an igloo.
Daddy:
See that knight? What a site!

248
Caillou:
His armor doesn't look too light.
Daddy, how did he go to the bathroom?
Daddy:
I don't know, Caillou.
Caillou:
That mummy is a little scary.
Caveman sure were hairy.
Daddy:
Things that fly.
Things that soar.
Caillou:
A moon rock and a meteor from outer space!
Daddy:
There's lots to learn and see.
Museums are fun, don't you agree?
Caillou:
I sure do, Daddy.
So visit a museum, you really won't believe.
All the things you'll see there.
You'll never want to leave.
Caillou & Daddy:
You'll never want to leave. Yeah.

210. Caillou the Astronaut

Storyteller:
Caillou liked to play and pretend he was someone else. Like a big furry bear.
Clementine:
Papa bear, is that you? It's me, Mama Bear!
Caillou:
Hello, Mama Bear. Let's go find some berries to eat.
Clementine:
Here are some yummy berries. Some berries aren't good to eat but these ones are.
Caillou:
I can eat a hundred berries!
Clementine:
I can eat a million berries!
Xavier:
Caillou! Look what I've got! The lights really work, and see? There are two astronauts
inside.
Clementine:
Why aren't there any girl astronauts in there?
Caillou:

249
Maybe the girls are in a different spaceship.
Xavier:
Let's pretend we're astronauts, Caillou.
Clementine:
We're playing bears, right, Caillou?
Storyteller:
Caillou really wanted to play astronauts, but he was playing with Clementine first.
Caillou:
Do you wanna play bears with us?
Clementine:
You can be Baby Bear.
Xavier:
No, I wanna play spaceships.
Caillou:
I'll play with Clementine now and I'll play spaceships with you later, okay?
Xavier:
Okay!
Clementine:
I'm going into the cave now.
Caillou:
Mama Bear, are you in there?
Clementine:
Roar!
Storyteller:
After playing bears, Caillou was ready for snacktime, he was hungry.
Xavier:
Caillou, come sit beside me.
Clementine:
No, sit next to me.
Storyteller:
Caillou didn't know who to sit beside.
Clementine:
I know, Caillou can sit beside both of us.
Storyteller:
Soon it was storytime, and once again Caillou sat with his friends Clementine and Xavier.
Miss Martin:
Now what book should I read today?
Xavier:
Do you have any books about outer space?
Miss Martin:
Hmm... Yes, here's one. This big yellow ball is the sun. And these are planets. This planet
here is the earth.
Xavier:
That's us!

250
Miss Martin:
That's right, Xavier. The earth is the planet we live on. And astronauts in spaceships travel
to the moon, and to all the other planets.
Storyteller:
Caillou wished he could travel in a spaceship to see all the planets.
Caillou:
Here comes Astronaut Caillou! Yahoo! Yeah! Yippee! Whee! Whoa! Shooting stars!
Clementine:
Hi, Caillou. Come sit with us.
Miss Martin:
All right, time to go outside and play.
Clementine:
Now we can play bears again.
Caillou:
I can't, Clementine. I said I'd play spaceships with Xavier.
Xavier:
You can play too. We need another astronaut.
Clementine:
But I wanna play bears.
Xavier:
I don't wanna play bears.
Clementine:
Well, I don't wanna play spaceships.
Miss Martin:
What's the problem here?
Caillou:
Clementine and Xavier want to play different things.
Miss Martin:
Why don't you try to think of a game everyone would like to play?
Storyteller:
Caillou tried to think of a game that had spaceships and bears in it.
Caillou:
Miss Martin? Are there any bears on other planets?
Miss Martin:
I don't know Caillou. That's a very good question. Maybe there are bears on a planet far, far
away somewhere.
Caillou:
We can be astronauts as we fly in our spaceship to the very far away Bear Planet.
Clementine:
Bear Planet?
Caillou:
Yeah. You can be a bear on the Bear Planet and we'll come to visit you.
Clementine:
Okay! The Bear Planet is over here, okay?

251
Xavier:
Okay! Come on, Caillou, let's get in our spaceship.
Xavier:
Let's explore this new planet, Astronaut Caillou.
Caillou:
Right! Hmm, I don't think anyone lives here.
Clementine:
Roar!
Caillou:
What was that?
Clementine:
Roar!
Caillou & Xavier:
Ah!
Clementine:
Don't be scared! I'm Mama Bear. Would you like some berries?
Caillou & Xavier:
Yeah. Okay.
Storyteller:
Caillou was glad he could play with his friends Clementine and Xavier, at the same time.

211. Caillou the Librarian

Caillou:
Splish!
Rosie:
Fishy!
Storyteller:
Caillou and Rosie were having lots of fun playing with Caillou's library card.
Caillou:
No, Rosie, that's my fishy. I mean, library card. Maybe you'll get your own library card one
day.
Rosie:
Oh! Library?
Mommy:
That's right, Rosie! We're going to the library today, for storytime.
Caillou:
Storytime!
Rosie:
Yeah!
Caillou:
Will we get to take some books home, Mommy?
Mommy:
Of course. You and Rosie can each borrow a few books.
Caillou:

252
Maybe they'll have a book about fish.
Storyteller:
Caillou could hardly wait to get to the library.
Rosie:
Oh! Fishy!
Caillou:
That's right, Rosie.
Rosie:
Oh!
Mommy:
We have a few minutes before storytime. Why don't you take Rosie to the board books,
Caillou?
Caillou:
Okay. Come on, Rosie.
Storyteller:
Caillou had been to the library lots of times, and he knew exactly where to go.
Caillou:
These books are for little kids like you, Rosie.
Rosie:
Open! Please. Cow says moo.
Caillou:
That's right, Rosie. The cow says Moo. And the piggy goes oink...
Mommy:
I'm glad you two are enjoying your book. But could you please try to be a little bit quieter?
Others might be trying to read or work.
Caillou:
Okay, Mommy. I'm going to find my own book.
Storyteller:
Caillou didn't want a book about cats. He wanted a book about fish.
Caillou:
Mommy?
Mommy:
Yes, Caillou?
Caillou:
I can't find a book about fish.
Vanessa:
Did I hear someone say 'fish'? It just so happens that we're reading a book about the ocean
in storytime today. Are you here for storytime?
Caillou:
Yes.
Vanessa:
Well, we're just about to begin. Come on! Hi, everyone! My name is Vanessa. Has anyone
ever been to the ocean before? There are lots of creatures that live in the ocean. This story
is about a dolphin named Daphne. Dolphins aren't fish, they're mammals. But when you see

253
dolphins, there are sure to be fish nearby.
Storyteller:
As Caillou listened to the story, he imagined what it would be like to swim with a real
dolphin.
Caillou:
Hello, Daphne Dolphin! Let's look for fish over there. There must be some fish around here
somewhere. You're not a fish. Hello, Mr. Turtle! Wow!
Vanessa:
You've been terrific listeners! Did you enjoy the story?
Rosie
Yeah!
Caillou:
Uh-uh!
Vanessa:
Super! We've got lots of other good books here in the library. I hope everyone will leave
here with a story or two.
Caillou:
Can we pick out some books now, Mommy?
Mommy:
Of course.
Vanessa:
Would you like to borrow this one? It has lots of fish in it.
Caillou:
Yes, please. Thank you.
Vanessa:
You're welcome.
Rosie:
Fishy book!
Caillou:
No, Rosie! That's my book. Oh, no!
Storyteller:
Caillou didn't know what to do. He thought the librarian might get angry if she saw the torn
book. At first Caillou decided to hide the book. But that didn't feel like the right thing to do.
Caillou:
We better show Mommy. Rosie and I ripped it, but it was an accident. We're sorry, Mommy.
Mommy:
I'm sure Vanessa will understand.
Caillou:
Do we have to tell her? What if she won't let me take out any more books?
Mommy:
She seems very nice. She may even be able to fix it.
Storyteller:
Caillou knew this was the right thing to do.
Caillou:

254
Okay, Mommy. We'll show her.
Vanessa:
Hi there. Can I help you?
Caillou:
Um, my sister and I were fighting over this book, and it sort of ripped. We're sorry.
Vanessa:
I see. Well, perhaps the two of you would like to help me fix it?
Caillou & Rosie:
Sure! Yeah!
Storyteller:
Caillou liked the idea of helping the librarian.
Rosie:
Stickers!
Vanessa:
It is a bit like stickers, isn't it? Now, you two need to promise me that you'll be more
careful with our books.
Caillou:
We will!
Vanessa:
As good as new! And all ready for you to sign out. Are there any other books you'd like to
borrow?
Caillou:
Look, Rosie. Your very own library card. It's just like mine.
Caillou:
Splish!
Rosie:
Fishy!

212. Caillou the Bookworm

Storyteller:
Caillou, Mommy and Rosie were just returning from a trip to the library. Caillou had a
whole bunch of books he just couldn't wait to look at. Especially the one about pirates.
Daddy:
Hey, everybody! Did you have fun at the library?
Caillou:
Hi, Daddy! I got lots of books. This one's about pirates looking for treasure.
Daddy:
Arrr matey!
Caillou:
Arrr matey!
Daddy:
Have you got some books too, Rosie?
Rosie:

255
Horsie book! Daddy, play horsie!
Daddy:
Sorry sweetie, I'm doing yard work this afternoon.
Rosie:
Mommy play horsie?
Mommy:
No, honey, I've got a lot to do today. Grandma's coming over to play with you.
Rosie:
Gramma play horsie.
Daddy:
And what are you going to do today, Caillou?
Caillou:
Look at my books. Hi, Gilbert.
Storyteller:
Caillou got nice and comfortable. Now he was ready to look at his book.
Caillou:
Look, Gilbert. The pirate has a pet parrot. That's a bird that can talk. I wish you could talk. I
forgot, you can talk.
Storyteller:
On the first page the pirate was sailing his ship to a little island.
Caillou:
Gilbert, I can't see! Gilbert! That's better! Gilbert, you silly cat.
Storyteller:
Caillou had to find somewhere else to look at his book. Somewhere where Gilbert wouldn't
interrupt him. The playroom looked like a good place to look at his book.
Rosie:
Rosie horsie!
Grandma:
Hello, Caillou! Would you like to play horsie with us?
Caillou:
No, I'm looking at my library book now.
Grandma:
All right. We'll try to be quiet. Come Rosie, let's draw some horsies.
Rosie:
Horsie, horsie, horsie, horsie! Horsie, horsie, horsie, horsie!
Storyteller:
Caillou was finding it hard to concentrate on his book with Rosie talking.
Rosie:
Horsie, horsie!
Grandma:
Now, Rosie, dear, come back over here with me. Caillou needs some quiet so he can
concentrate on his book.
Rosie:
Horsie, horsie, horsie, horsie!

256
Caillou:
That's okay. I can go somewhere else.
Grandma:
I'm sure you can find a quiet spot somewhere, maybe try the living room.
Caillou:
Okay. Thanks Grandma.
Rosie:
Horsie, horsie, horsie, horsie! Horsie, horsie, horsie, horsie!
Storyteller:
Caillou thought Grandma was right. He needed to find a quiet place to enjoy his book. And
the living room looked perfect.
Caillou:
Arrr matey.
Storyteller:
Now it was too noisy for Caillou to concentrate on his book.
Caillou:
Mommy!
Mommy:
Sorry, honey, I didn't see you there. Are you trying to look at your pirate book?
Caillou:
Yeah.
Mommy:
I'm afraid I have to do the vacuuming in here.
Caillou:
Okay, Mommy. I'll find another quiet place.
Mommy:
Thank you, Caillou.
Storyteller:
Caillou couldn't see Gilbert anywhere. Maybe now he could look at his book.
Caillou:
Oh, Gilbert! Not again!
Storyteller:
Now where could Caillou look at his book in peace and quiet?
Caillou:
Mmm...
Storyteller:
Caillou thought the closet would be a very good place to look at his book. It was quiet and
there was nobody to bother him. Caillou imagined that he was the pirate in the story.
Caillou:
That must be where the treasure is, matey. I'd better check the map. Let's see... Shh, Polly!
I need some quiet so I can look at my map, arrr. The treasure is buried under that tree,
arrr! I is getting hungry. Oh boy, this is it. Real pirate treasure! I wonder what's inside, arrr.
Cookies! Here you go, Polly! One for you, and one for me. Now that's good treasure.
Mommy:

257
Caillou? Caillou? I don't know where he could be.
Grandma:
He's not downstairs.
Daddy:
Or outside.
Caillou:
Here I am.
Grandma:
Caillou.
Mommy:
There you are.
Rosie:
Caillou hiding!
Daddy:
Were you playing hide and seek?
Caillou:
No, I wanted to look at my book in a quiet place, and my closet was the quietest place in
the whole house.
Rosie:
Caillou play now?
Caillou:
Yup. I'm all finished my book. Arr matey, I'm a pirate.
Rosie:
Caillou pirate!
Daddy:
Arrr, matey!

[Song]books
I like looking at books.
I like looking at books.
Me too.
Books can bring the world to you.
Show you things that you never knew.
I like looking at books.
I like looking at books.
There's books on butterflies and birds.
I look at pictures and even the words.
Books on pirates and their tales.
Books with pictures of sharks and whales.
Books on cowboys and the west.
But I like dinosaur books the best,
they're my favorite.
Books on hockey and every sport.

258
Books that show you how to build a fort.
You can learn to tie your laces.
You can learn to make funny faces,
look, Rosie.
I like looking at books.
I like looking at books.
They show you lots of things you need.
I just can't wait till I can read.
Me too.

213. Caillou the Storyteller

Storyteller:
Caillou was having fun playing with his friends Jason and Jeffrey, but they were starting to
get a little too loud.
Caillou:
Roar!
Miss Martin:
Boys? Let's use our indoor voices, please.
Jeffrey:
But we're having a roaring contest.
Caillou:
If we go outside, can we use outside voices?
Miss Martin:
Good thinking, Caillou. It is almost time to play outside.
Caillou:
It's raining!
Miss Martin:
Oh, dear. I guess we won't be going outside to play right now.
Storyteller:
Caillou was disappointed. He really wanted to go outside.
Caillou:
I don't like rain.
Jason:
Where does all that water come from, anyway?
Miss Martin:
That's a good question. Does anyone know where the rain comes from?
Jeffrey:
From the clouds.
Miss Martin:
Right. But do you know how it gets there? Come on, I'll show you. Water starts out in lakes
and rivers. Over time it evaporates. That means it goes into the air and up to the clouds.
When clouds are full of water, they're like sponges that can't hold any more. So they let go
of the water and it rains.

259
Jason:
And the rain makes the grass grow.
Miss Martin:
Right!
Storyteller:
Caillou knew that rain was good sometimes. But right now, he really wanted to go outside
and play.
Caillou:
I wish I could make the rain stop. Don't worry, Super Caillou will make it stop raining. It
feels like the sponge Daddy uses to wash the car. I know. I'll squeeze out all the rain. I
stopped the rain. You can come out and play now.
Kids:
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Hurray for Caillou!
Miss Martin:
Caillou? If the rain stops, we can go outside and play, but for now why don't you pick out a
book to look at? Books are a great way to have fun on a rainy day.
Caillou:
Okay.
Jason:
Look! I've got Jack and the Beanstalk, and it has a giant in it.
Jeffrey:
I found a book about dinosaurs. What are you gonna read, Caillou?
Caillou:
I want a book about a superhero.
Jason:
What kind of superhero?
Caillou:
A superhero who makes it stop raining.
Miss Martin:
I don't think we have a book like that, Caillou. But would you like to write one? I could help
you.
Caillou:
Okay!
Miss Martin:
Now, why don't you tell me your superhero story, and I'll write it down.
Caillou:
Umm, once upon a time, everybody wanted to go outside, but it was raining. So the
superhero...
Jeffrey:
What was his name?
Caillou:
Super Caillou!
Miss Martin:
That's a good name. What did Super Caillou do?

260
Caillou:
He flew up to the clouds...
Jason:
That's where the rain comes from.
Miss Martin:
Shhh!
Caillou:
And the clouds were big sponges full of water. So he flew up on top of the clouds...
Jason:
Was anybody else up there?
Caillou:
Yeah, a giant! And a dinosaur!
Miss Martin:
Oh my! A giant and a dinosaur in the clouds. Then what happened?
Caillou:
Umm...
Miss Martin:
So, Super Caillou wanted to stop the rain and?
Caillou:
Yeah! The clouds were wet 'cause the giant was washing his car and he left the hose
running. So he got the giant and the dinosaur to help him squish out all the water. They
jumped up and down on the clouds and squished the water out.
Caillou & Jason:
Squish! Squish! Squish!
Miss Martin:
What happened after they squished out all the water?
Caillou:
It stopped raining. And they all went for a ride in the giant's car.
Miss Martin:
In the giant's car. There, what a good story! And now you have it all written down.
Caillou:
There aren't any pictures.
Miss Martin:
Not yet. The pictures in books are called illustrations. Would you like to make some
illustrations for your book?
Caillou:
Yeah!
Storyteller:
Caillou painted lots of pictures to go in his book. He was especially proud of his last picture.
After the paint was dry, Miss Martin helped Caillou tie all the pages together with yarn.
Miss Martin:
And there we are. Congratulations, Caillou, you're an author. That means you wrote your
own book.
Mommy:

261
Who wrote his own book?
Caillou:
I did! And I made the pictures. The illustrations. See?
Mommy:
You made this? This looks like a very exciting story. Would you like to take it home, or
leave it here for everybody to read?
Caillou:
Mm, I want to leave it here. Jason and Jeffrey might want to look at it.
Mommy:
All right.
Jason & Jeffrey:
Bye, Caillou!
Mommy:
I'm so proud to have a real author in the family.
Caillou:
Me too! Bye!

214. A Present For Mommy

Storyteller:
It was a cold winter morning, and it had been snowing all night. Caillou was
getting dressed to go to playschool. He even remembered to put on his hat!
Caillou:
I can't see!
Storyteller:
He didn't want to be late because today they'd be doing arts and crafts.
Caillou:
I'm ready, Mommy!
Mommy:
You might have to wait for me, Caillou. Huh, I've looked everywhere, but I can't
find the car keys!
Caillou:
Here they are! They were in that boot!
Mommy:
Thanks, sweetie. I guess I'll have to find a better place to keep these keys or
I'll make us both late!
Caillou:
Brrr. Where's the car? It disappeared!
Mommy:
Huh! It disappeared under all that snow. We'd better get to work.
Storyteller:
Caillou liked to help Mommy shovel snow. It was fun! When all the snow was off
the car, Caillou and Mommy tried to warm up, but it was very chilly.
Caillou:
Uh-oh.

262
Mommy:
The car doesn't like the cold weather. It's having a bad day, too. Don't worry,
Caillou. When things go wrong, it's best to look on the bright side. At least
you found the car keys for me! How about we ask Grandpa to drive you to
playschool?
Caillou:
Okay!
Grandpa:
Spin! Hat! Mittens! Coat! Boot number one!
Caillou:
Whoa! Oh!
Grandpa:
Boot number two! Phew! That was a lot of work! I'll be back later to pick you
up. Mommy will be busy getting the car fixed. Sounds like she's having a bad
day.
Miss Martin:
Hi, Caillou, I'm glad you made it. We're making crafts out of clay this morning.
Caillou:
I'm gonna make a present for Mommy!
Grandpa:
That's a great idea, Caillou. See you later!
Storyteller:
Caillou tried to think of something that would make Mommy happy, like a fan to
blow away the snow! Or the warmest coat in the world! Or even better, a big warm
sun to melt all the snow so it could be summertime!
Mommy:
Ahh! Thank you Caillou!
Caillou:
I'm gonna make a sun to melt all the snow! My sun is shining on your snowman!
Leo:
Oh, no! I'm melting!
Caillou:
It's getting hotter and hotter
Caillou & Leo:
Uh-oh!
Storyteller:
Caillou was upset. Now he had to start all over again. This time Caillou was
very careful with his sun.
Miss Martin:
Let's bake it in the oven so it can dry out. Then you can paint it.
Caillou:
It broke!
Miss Martin:
It's okay, we'll wait for it to cool, and then we can glue the pieces back

263
together.
Storyteller:
After the sun had cooled, Miss Martin glued it to a piece of wood.
Miss Martin:
There you go, better than ever! And now you can hang it on the wall!
Caillou:
Thank you! Now I'm going to paint it yellow! See? He's smiling!
Storyteller:
After snack time, Caillou decided to check on his present for Mommy.
Clementine:
Can I see, Caillou?
Clementine & Caillou:
Uh-oh.
Storyteller:
Caillou was annoyed at Clementine. His present was ruined again!
Clementine:
Sorry Caillou.
Leo:
It looks like your sun's wearing sunglasses.
Storyteller:
Caillou decided he liked his sun even better this way.
Miss Martin:
Good work, Caillou. Sometimes when things go wrong, they still work out for the
best!
Grandpa:
Looks like the car's fixed. Maybe it wasn't such a bad day after all.
Storyteller:
Caillou couldn't wait to give Mommy the sun he made.
Mommy:
Hello, Caillou!
Caillou:
I made you a present, Mommy!
Mommy:
A sun! Oh, thank you! It's just what I needed to see on a cold afternoon. I was
having a bad day, but this makes it a whole lot better. Mmm! And I know just
where this can go! A little higher!
Grandpa:
What do you think, Caillou?
Caillou:
Perfect!
Grandpa:
And now let's see if it works, keys, please!
Mommy:
Not again! They must be around here somewhere.

264
Caillou:
Here, Mommy!
Mommy:
What would I do without you?
Grandpa:
Now you'll always remember where your keys are.
Mommy:
And we'll always remember to look on the bright side when we're having a bad
day! Thanks to Caillou!

215. Caillou The Chef

Storyteller:
Caillou was very excited because his friends, the twins, Jason and Jeffrey, were
coming over to play. And they were staying for lunch.
Caillou:
What are we having for lunch, Mommy?
Mommy:
I thought you could make your own pizzas.
Caillou:
Yay!
Mommy:
You can help me by washing those mushrooms.
Caillou:
They're here! Hi, Jason! Hi, Jeffrey!
Jason & Jeffrey:
Hi, Caillou.
Caillou:
We're gonna make our own lunch! Guess what we're gonna make!
Jason:
Um, snail sandwiches?
Caillou:
Eew! No.
Jeffrey:
How about snake soup?
Caillou:
No!
Jason:
I know! Spider pie! I've got a glow in the dark spider we can eat! Sorry Boris.
Caillou:
No, we're gonna make our own pizzas!
Jeffrey:
I've never made a pizza before.
Jason:

265
Me neither.
Caillou:
I have lots of times. I'll show you how. Come on!
Mommy:
Okay boys, now that you've washed your hands, we're ready to start. Here's your
pizza dough.
Caillou:
The first thing you have to do is roll your dough flat, like this.
Daddy:
Ah, making pizzas, are we? Did you know that I once worked in a pizzeria?
Caillou:
Really?
Caillou & Jason & Jeffrey:
Wow!
Daddy:
You need a lot of practice before you can do this. You see, it's all in the
wrist action. Oops! Maybe you boys should just stick to the rolling pin. I'd
better go wash up.
Jeffrey:
What do we do now, Caillou?
Caillou:
Next, you put on the tomato sauce and spread it all around.
Jason:
I don't like sauce much.
Jeffrey:
I like lots of sauce!
Caillou:
Then, you sprinkle on the cheese.
Jason:
I like tons of cheese.
Jeffrey:
I just want a little.
Caillou:
That's not the right way to make pizza. But now comes the most fun part. You
make a smiley face with the mushrooms!
Jason:
I don't like mushrooms.
Jeffrey:
I do. I'm gonna make a spider on my pizza. I need something to make my spider
legs with.
Mommy:
Well, let's see what I can find. How about carrots?
Jeffrey:
Yeah!

266
Jason:
Can I have some broccoli, please?
Caillou:
Broccoli? Carrot sticks! They don't go on pizzas!
Storyteller:
Caillou was upset that the twins were making their pizzas all wrong!
Mommy:
Everyone can make their pizza how they like, Caillou.
Jason:
Can I put my spider on too?
Mommy:
Well, I don't know about that. Let's just stick to food, okay?
Storyteller:
Caillou imagined he was a real chef in a pizzeria.
Caillou:
Let's make some pizzas!
Jason:
Okay, Chef Caillou!
Jeffrey:
Oops!
Caillou:
Oops!
Jason:
See Caillou? I made a spider.
Jeffrey:
And I made a fly for the spider to eat!
Mommy:
They'll be ready in thirty minutes so you boys can go and play.
Caillou:
I know what we can play! Welcome to Caillou's restaurant. Here's our menu.
Jason:
Hmm, I don't know what to have.
Caillou:
We don't have any spiders, snakes or snails. But we do have pizza! And you can
have any topping you want.
Jason:
I'll take a dump truck and a yoyo!
Jeffrey:
I'll have a sock puppet and some puzzle pieces!
Jason:
That was good, but I'm still hungry, Caillou.
Mommy:
Boys! Pizza's ready!
Caillou & Jason & Jeffrey:

267
Yeah! Oh, boy!
Jeffrey:
I'll trade you a slice of spider for a slice of your smiley face.
Caillou:
Well, okay. Mmm, the carrots make it nice and crunchy! Mmm, yummy!
Storyteller:
Three boys had a good time trying each other's pizzas. And Caillou learned that
there really is more than one way to make a pizza.

[Song] we're cookin!

Mommy:
Caillou, would you like to help me cook something today?
Caillou:
Okay, Mommy.
Mommy:
We're cookin, we're cookin today.
We're cookin, I'll show you the way.
We're cookin, we're cookin today.
We're gonna bake a chocolate cake.
First, we take a little flour.
Put it in a mixing bowl.
Add eggs, butter, sugar, milk.
Stir it up well, that's the goal.
Into the oven, the cake will go.
Be careful, cause an oven's hot.
We have to wait till the cake is done.
Let's take a look at what we've got.
Now let's put the icing on,
Caillou:
Yeah.
Caillou:
I think it's ready soon.
Don't forget that we have to clean up.
Caillou, would you like to lick the spoon?
Caillou:
Yes!
Mommy:
We're cookin.
Caillou:
We baked a cake.
Mommy:
We're cookin.
Callou:

268
They're fun to make.
Mommy:
We're cookin.
Don't get a bellyache!
Night or day.
Caillou:
Step right this way.
Mommy:
For real gourmet.
Caillou:
It's Caillou's Cafe!
Caillou & Mommy:
We're cookin.
We're cookin today! Yeah!

216. Caillou The Painter

Mommy:
Here's another one.
Storyteller:
Caillou was helping Mommy sort the laundry. His job was matching all the socks.
Caillou:
Pink and pink.
Mommy:
You're very good at matching socks. Last one. There you go.
Caillou:
Hmm, I need another blue sock.
Mommy:
Hmm, it's not in here. Maybe it's still in the washing machine. Aha! Here it is!
Oh, dear. This stain didn't wash out of Daddy's shirt. I guess I'll have to make
cleaning rags out of it.
Caillou:
Mommy, can I have it?
Mommy:
If you like. But I'd better shorten those sleeves or you'll trip over them.
Caillou:
I can't find my hands!
Rosie:
Thank You!
Caillou:
Look, Daddy. I'm wearing your shirt! Mommy cut off the sleeves.
Daddy:
That looks like a good paint shirt.
Caillou:

269
A paint shirt!
Rosie:
Grandma coming!
Daddy:
That's right. Grandma just called and she's coming for lunch.
Caillou:
Can I paint a picture for Grandma in my paint shirt?
Mommy:
Sure you can, Caillou. We can set up your painting things in the backyard.
Rosie:
Grandma coming!
Daddy:
Why don't we go out and pick a nice flower for Grandma?
Rosie:
Yeah! Pretty flower for Grandma!
Daddy:
Hold on there, sweetie. First the sun block, then we go outside.
Storyteller:
Caillou knew that you had to put sun block on when you went outside on a sunny
day.
Daddy:
You're gonna need some of this too.
Caillou:
I can do it. Oh! This is a good sun block paint shirt.
Mommy:
Come on Caillou, let's get your painting gear. There you go. You're all set.
Storyteller:
Caillou couldn't wait to get started on his painting. He wanted to make
something extra special for Grandma.
Caillou:
Hey! Gilbert, I'm trying to paint. I'm going to paint a picture of you, Gilbert.
Daddy:
How about a nice rose?
Rosie:
Pretty flower.
Daddy:
Would you like a lily? Okay!
Rosie:
Pretty flower.
Storyteller:
Caillou liked his painting of Gilbert, but he wanted to paint something even
more special for Grandma.
Caillou:
I'm gonna paint a picture of Rosie!

270
Rosie:
Rosie!
Storyteller:
Caillou liked his painting of Rosie too, but it wasn't quite what he wanted to
give Grandma either. Caillou was having a hard time figuring out what to paint
for Grandma.
Mommy:
Hello, Caillou!
Caillou:
What should I paint, Mommy?
Mommy:
What about a tree?
Caillou:
I want to use lots of colours. What can I paint that has lots of colours?
Mommy:
You could always make an abstract painting.
Caillou:
Abstrark?
Mommy:
Abstract. That means you don't have to paint anything in particular. You can use
whatever colours you want and make any kind of shapes you want.
Caillou:
Like circles and triangles and stars?
Mommy:
Sure. Whatever you like.
Storyteller:
Caillou thought abstract painting sounded like fun.
Caillou:
Whee! All done!
Mommy:
That's a beautiful painting, Caillou. I'm sure Grandma will love it!
Caillou:
Thank you! Daddy's shirt's all messy.
Mommy:
That's okay, Caillou. Paint shirts are supposed to get messy. It shows how hard
you worked on your painting.
Caillou:
Messy's good!
Mommy:
Maybe for paint shirts, but you still need to wash your face and hands before
lunch!
Rosie:
Pretty flower.
Grandma:

271
Hello, everyone!
Mommy & Daddy:
Hello!
Caillou:
Hi, Grandma!
Rosie:
Grandma! Flower!
Daddy:
Oh, that's too bad, Rosie. This flower was for you, Grandma.
Grandma:
Now, don't you fret, Rosie. I know what we can do. We can press this flower and
that way it will last for a long, long time. There, doesn't it look nice?
Rosie:
Oh! Flower for Grandma!
Grandma:
Oh... Thank you, Rosie. It's beautiful!
Caillou:
Hi, Grandma! I painted this for you!
Grandma:
How wonderful! Thank you Caillou! Oh, which way does it go?
Caillou:
I'm not sure.
Grandma:
Then it's an extra special work of art, because you can look at it any which
way!
Caillou:
Really?
Grandma:
And now we have two beautiful works of art!
Caillou:
Uh-oh! You mean three. Gilbert is a work of art too

217. Caillou Goes Shopping

Storyteller: Today Caillou was acting very silly. He was trying to make his little sister laugh,
and he was doing a very good job.
Caillou: Look at this, Rosie!
Rosie: Caillou silly!
Mommy: You're certainly acting the clown today, Caillou.
Caillou: Hi, Sammy! Catch!
Rosie: Caillou funny!
Caillou: I'm going to draw you a picture, Rosie. A picture of a clown.

272
Mommy: What a good idea!
Caillou: First I need a red crayon for his red nose.
Rosie: Red nose!
Storyteller: But Caillou was having trouble finding the red crayon. Where could it have
gone?
Caillou: I can't find the red.
Mommy: Let me look.
Rosie: Caillou! Red!
Caillou: Thanks, Rosie. Look, Mommy. Look how small it is.
Mommy: Yes. You've almost used it all up. All of your crayons are looking rather worn
down. I think you need some new crayons. Let's take a trip to the store.
Caillou: Yeah! We can get lots and lots and lots of colours.
Rosie: Red too?
Caillou: Yes, Rosie. Especially red! Mommy, are we going to buy anything else at the store?
Mommy: Yes Caillou, we need a few things. We need toilet paper, lightbulbs, new socks for
Rosie.
Caillou: And crayons!
Mommy: And crayons. Do you think you can help me out by remembering what we need to
buy?
Caillou: I can remember! Toilet paper..., um...
Mommy: Lightbulbs, socks for Rosie, and crayons.
Caillou: Toilet paper, lightbulbs, socks for Rosie, crayons.
Storyteller: Caillou thought about the list very hard so he wouldn't forget anything.
Mommy: Sometimes if you turn a list into a song it will help you remember.
Caillou: A song? Hmm... Toilet paper, lightbulbs, socks for Rosie, crayons!
Mommy: That's right.
Caillou: Toilet paper, lightbulbs, socks for Rosie, crayons!
Rosie: Silly Caillou!
Caillou: Toilet pa-per, lightbulbs, socks for Rosie, crayons! Toilet paper, lightbulbs, socks
for Rosie, crayons!
Mommy: Up you go! Okay, Caillou, can you remember our shopping list?
Storyteller: Caillou thought very hard. Then he remembered the little song he made up.
Caillou: Toilet paper, lightbulbs, socks for Rosie, crayons!
Mommy: Very good, Caillou!
Caillou: Toilet paper is first! Toilet paper! Look Mommy, lightbulbs! Socks for Rosie!
Rosie: Ooh! Pretty flowers!
Mommy: Well, I think we're all done shopping.
Caillou: No! We still need to find crayons!
Mommy: Oh, that's right! I'm glad you're here to remind me, Caillou!
Caillou: Crayons! We're all done!
Storyteller: Caillou was disappointed they'd found everything on their shopping list. He
wanted to look for more things.
Caillou: Look Mommy! It's Sarah. Hi, Sarah!
Sarah: Hi, Caillou!

273
Caillou: Are you buying crayons? I am.
Sarah: I'm starting school this week and I need to get all these things.
Caillou: Wow! That's a lot! Can I help you find them? I'm good at shopping!
Sarah: Sure.
Caillou: Can I help Sarah, Mommy?
Mommy: All right!
Sarah: One red pen.
Caillou: Found one!
Sarah: One eraser!
Caillou: Hmm, got it!
Sarah: One ruler!
Caillou: There's one!
Sarah: Five notebooks.
Caillou: One, two, three, four, five! I've got them.
Storyteller: Soon they had found everything on Sarah's list.
Sarah: All done! Thanks Caillou!
Mommy: You found all those things very quickly! Well done! Now we'd better be getting
home. Rosie! Where did you put your new socks?
Rosie: Hiding.
Caillou: There they are! When I go to school like Sarah, I'm going to need notebooks and
pencils and erasers and lots and lots of stuff.
Mommy: That's right, Caillou. We'll go back to the store for all your school supplies when
you're old enough for school.
Caillou: Rosie! Now Rosie's being a clown, Mommy!

218. Caillou Goes Apple Picking

Kids: Yay! Yeah! I want the front seat.

Storyteller: Caillou felt very grown up as he boarded the school bus to head off on a big
adventure. Caillou and his friends were going to pick apples at an apple orchard.
Caillou: Look, a red leaf!
Clementine: I have a yellow one.
Miss Martin: You see how the leaves on the maple tree have changed colour? Apples do the
same thing. When the apples change colour, it means they're ready to pick. This one's
called a Macintosh apple. It's red and shiny and crunchy. This one's a Russet apple. It has a
rough skin and it's not as pretty but it's very sweet. Eric's going to let you taste both apples
so you can decide which one you want to pick.
Caillou: They're both yummy but I like the red one best.
Leo: Me too.
Kids: Me too! I like that one!
Miss Martin: Okay. Is everyone ready to go apple picking?
Kids: Yeah yeah! I am!

274
Miss Martin: Now Eric's going to take us on a hayride to where the apple trees are.
Caillou: A hayride! Yeah!
Storyteller: Caillou was excited about the hayride.
Clementine: Look at all the trees!
Caillou: And look at all the apples!
Miss Martin: See the apple pickers? They use ladders to reach the apples that are high up in
the trees. Okay everyone, pick a partner. You have to be very gentle when you pick an
apple because if you pull too hard on it, other apples will fall, and we don't want any apples
that have fallen on the ground.
Caillou: Why not? This one looks okay.
Miss Martin: Look closer. When apples hit the ground they become bruised and insects can
get inside them.
Caillou: Ew. The apples on the tree are better, they don't have bugs.
Miss Martin: Right! Now everyone pick a tree and start filling your buckets.
Caillou: This one has lots of apples.
Storyteller: Caillou really enjoyed picking apples. It was fun!
Clementine: We have more apples than you.
Caillou: Ours are bigger. You wanna have a race?
Clementine: Yeah, let's see who fills their bucket first.
Storyteller: Caillou liked the big apples higher up on the tree but they were hard to reach.
Caillou: Oh!
Storyteller: When he saw the ladders, he had an idea.
Caillou: Can I use a ladder to get the big apples, Miss Martin?
Miss Martin: How about this one? It's more your size.
Caillou: Your turn.
Leo: Your turn.
Caillou: Whoa! How am I gonna pick you? I know! Yay! Whee!
Leo: Our bucket's full!
Clementine: Ours is too!
Caillou: Who won?
Miss Martin: It's a tie. You all win!
Caillou & Leo: We won! We won!
Emma: We won too! We won too!
Clementine: Look at that!
Miss Martin: Shh! Keep very quiet.
Caillou: They were eating apples.
Miss Martin: Apples are a favorite treat for deer.
Caillou: They're my favorite treat too.
Miss Martin: Come on, I think it's time we went back.
Storyteller: Miss Martin took them to the big red barn, where Eric showed them how to
make apple juice!
Caillou: Thank you, Eric!
Miss Martin: You can make all kinds of different foods with apples.
Leo: I like apple pie.

275
Clementine: I like apple jelly. On toast!
Miss Martin: How about apple muffins?
Leo & Clementine: Mmmm!
Miss Martin: What about you, Caillou, which do you like best?
Caillou: I like apples just by themselves, the best.
Storyteller: What an exciting day! Caillou couldn't wait to get home to share his apples with
Mommy, Daddy and Rosie. But right now he was ready for a little nap!

219. [Song]seasons

Winter, spring, summer, fall, the seasons they go round and round.
Winter, spring, summer, fall, the seasons they go round.
I like summer when it's hot.
It's fun to swim and play a lot.
I like fall when it's Hallowe'en.
Daddy wears the silliest costumes that you've ever seen.
I like winter when it snows.
Sledding, skating. Off we go.
And I like spring when the leaves turn green.
I ride my bike and help Mommy keep our garden clean.
It doesn't matter where you live.
No matter what the weather is.
Each season has things to do, that makes it special for you.
Winter, spring, summer, fall, the seasons they go round and round.
Winter, spring, summer, fall, the seasons they go round.

220. Caillou's Hallowe'en Costume

Storyteller: Hallowe'en was coming, and Caillou didn't know what he was going to dress up
as. The bedsheet gave Caillou an idea for a costume. He thought it would be fun to be a
ghost.
Caillou: Boo!
Rosie: Ahh!
Caillou: Look Rosie, it's just me! See, it's a costume, for Hallowe'en. It's not supposed to be
scary, it's supposed to be fun. On Hallowe'en you dress up and go out and people give you
candy.
Rosie: Rosie dress up!
Mommy: I don't think the ghost costume is quite right for you, Rosie. Why don't we find
you a different costume. How about this?
Rosie: Yeah!
Caillou: You look like a princess!

276
Rosie: Rosie princess!
Caillou: Daddy, can you help me find a Hallowe'en costume?
Daddy: Sure, let's see what we've got in here. Why don't you try this on for size?
Caillou: Huh-huh. It's way too big!
Daddy: Don't worry. You look very grown up.
Caillou: I'm a Daddy!
Daddy: I have just the thing to top off your outfit!
Storyteller: Caillou liked dressing up like daddy.
Rosie: Caillou!
Daddy: And Rosie can be a clown with this.
Rosie: Rosie clown! Rosie princess!
Storyteller: Caillou wasn't so sure he wanted to be a daddy for Hallowe'en. It was awfully
hard to walk.
Caillou: I think I need a different costume.
Daddy: We've still got a few days to think of something. Right now it's time for bed.
Storyteller: The days went by and still Caillou couldn't decide on a costume. Finally
Hallowe'en came. Caillou helped Mommy by drawing a face for the jack o' lantern, and
putting candy into little bags for his friends.
Mommy: What's wrong, sweetie?
Caillou: I still don't know what to be for Hallowe'en.
Mommy: Daddy and Rosie are in the basement. Why don't you join them? Maybe you'll find
something down there.
Daddy: There must be something in here you can use for a costume!
Storyteller: Caillou was finding all sorts of funny things. Then he felt something soft and
furry.
Rosie: Kitty!
Caillou: Good idea, Rosie!
Rosie: Rosie princess! Rosie clown! Rosie cat!
Caillou: You can't be everything, Rosie!
Rosie: Rosie princess, clown and cat!
Storyteller: Now Caillou was really starting to worry about finding a costume to wear.
Daddy: Come on, there's still time. We'll think of something. You know what? I think we've
got all the makings of a great monster costume right here.
Caillou: A monster!
Storyteller: Caillou liked the sound of that.
Caillou: Roar! Roar! Roar! Candy trees! I want to be a monster! Monsters can eat as much
candies as they want!
Daddy: Even monsters can get a tummy ache from eating too much candy. You'd better
save those candies for tonight.
Mommy: A monster! What a good idea! After lunch I'll make you a costume from that furry
blue fabric.
Caillou: Thanks Mommy!
Daddy: Here we go, one mini monster outfit made by Mommy!
Caillou: Wow!

277
Storyteller: Caillou couldn't wait to show his friends his furry suit.
Mommy: Look Rosie! A cowboy and a bumblebee!
Leo: Trick or treat! Yeehaw!
Clementine: What are you, Rosie?
Rosie: Princess kitty clown!
Leo: Where's Caillou? I wanna see his costume!
Daddy: Ready, Monster Caillou?
Caillou: Ready! Roar! It's just me.
Leo: Nice monster costume, Caillou!
Caillou: Thank you. Want some monster candy?
Leo: Yes, please!
Clementine: Thank you!
Clementine: I'm going to get lots of candy!
Leo: Yeehaw! Me too!
Caillou: Me too, but I'm going to save some for tomorrow. I don't want to get a monster
tummy ache! Roar!

221. Shoo, Shoo Bird, Fly Away!

Storyteller:
Caillou loved playing in the dirt. He was finding all sorts of interesting things.
Caillou:
Oh! Look what I found! Can I keep it, Mommy?
Mommy:
Why don't you help me plant some tomato seeds? Good job!
Caillou:
Hi, birdie!
Mommy:
Shoo! Go away! Shoo!
Caillou:
Why did you do that?
Mommy:
If the birds eat the seeds we're planting, there won't be any vegetables!
Caillou:
I thought birds ate worms.
Mommy:
They eat worms and seeds.
Caillou:
We need a sign for the tomatoes. Can I make one?
Mommy:
Of course!
Rosie:
Oh!
Storyteller:
When Caillou saw Rosie, he thought she looked very funny.

278
Caillou:
Rosie, you're all white!
Rosie:
Rosie baking!
Mommy:
Oh, is that what's going on here?
Daddy:
Yup, believe it or not, this will all result in a delicious apple pie. How's the gardening
coming along?
Caillou:
I planted tomato seeds and now I'm going to make a sign for the tomatoes, see?
Mommy:
Here you go, Caillou.
Caillou:
Thank you.
Storyteller:
Caillou was proud to have made the sign all by himself.
Caillou:
I'm going to put it in the garden.
Storyteller:
Caillou was in a big hurry to put his brand new sign in the garden.
Caillou:
The birds ate more seeds.
Mommy:
Let's make a scarecrow to keep the birds away.
Caillou:
What's a scarecrow?
Mommy:
Come on! I'll show you.
Storyteller:
Mommy had found some old clothes that were perfect for their scarecrow.
Caillou:
What is a scarecrow?
Mommy:
A scarecrow is a man made out of sticks, with a hat and clothes, and he stands out in the
garden.
Caillou:
How will that keep the birds away?
Mommy:
If you were a bird and saw a strange person in the garden wearing all these funny clothes,
wouldn't you fly away?
Caillou:
Yeah!
Mommy:

279
Good pick! Now we'll need some pants.
Caillou:
He needs a face.
Mommy:
Can you draw a scary face?
Caillou:
Yeah! Scary like this!
Mommy:
Yikes!
Storyteller:
Caillou thought he could be an excellent scarecrow himself.
Caillou:
Stay away birds, stay away birds! Hey! Boo! It worked! I'm a good scarecrow! Shoo! Shoo!
That was a big bird! Whoa! Shoo! Shoo! That was the biggest bird of all! Wow! Look
Mommy! A scary scarecrow face!
Mommy:
That's very good, Caillou. Now let's go put our scarecrow together.
Caillou:
Yeah!
Storyteller:
Caillou couldn't wait to see their finished scarecrow.
Caillou:
I can help!
Mommy:
Thank you, honey.
Rosie:
Birdies! Birdies! Birdies!
Storyteller:
Caillou couldn't believe his eyes. The scarecrow looked like a real person. But there were
still a few things missing.
Mommy:
Boo!
Rosie:
Ah! Ah!
Mommy:
You know, Rosie, your pie plates could help the scarecrow make noise. I think we're almost
done.
Daddy:
Mmm. And I think something else is almost done.
Caillou & Rosie:
Apple pie! Yum!
Caillou:
Look! The birds are coming back! It works! The scarecrow scared them away!
Mommy:

280
Good! That means our carrots and tomatoes will grow.
Caillou:
They're gonna grow really really tall, up over my head.
Daddy:
Really? That big?
Caillou:
Yup. The tomatoes will be this big and the carrots will be as big as our car.
Daddy:
We could put wheels on it and drive around in our carrot car.
Caillou:
And then we can eat it.

222. Caillou's Road Trip

Storyteller:
One Saturday morning, Daddy suggested it might be a great day for a drive.
Caillou:
Where are we going to drive to, Daddy?
Daddy:
Oh, I don't know.
Caillou:
You don't know?
Daddy:
Nope. We'll just drive and see what we can find.
Storyteller:
Caillou thought it was strange not to know where you were driving to. He wondered what
they would find.
Daddy:
Here we go!
Caillou:
Yeah!
Rosie:
Yeah!
Mommy:
Who wants to play a game?
Caillou & Rosie:
I do!
Mommy:
Okay, for this game you have to look for... a red barn.
Caillou:
There's one! I see a red barn!
Rosie:
Barn!
Mommy:

281
Good! Now how about a white car?
Rosie:
Car! Car!
Caillou:
It's a car, Rosie, but it's black, not white. A white car!
Rosie:
White car!
Mommy:
Now let's look for... cows!
Rosie:
Cows! Moo!
Storyteller:
Caillou was first to see the cows, but he wanted to let Rosie call it out.
Caillou:
Watch for cows, Rosie.
Rosie:
Cows! Cows! Rosie see cows! Moo!
Daddy:
Way to go, sweetie. Moo!
Caillou & Rosie & Daddy:
Moo!
Storyteller:
Soon it was time to stop for lunch and fill up the car with gas.
Caillou:
Is the gas going in the car now, Daddy?
Daddy:
Yup. Those numbers show us how much gas is going in.
Caillou:
It's a lot!
Daddy:
Gas is like food for the car. The gas makes the car go.
Caillou:
We're going to have lunch and the car is having lunch too.
Daddy:
You got it!
Caillou:
Wow! Look at the truck, Daddy! Can we go and see it? Please?
Daddy:
Sure, let's go.
Storyteller:
Caillou liked big trucks. And this one was really nice and shiny! Caillou imagined what it
would be like to drive a big, big truck like this one.
Caillou:
I'm Truck Driver Caillou. Hmm, that sign means that deer cross the road here. I'd better

282
slow down. Bye bye! Duck crossing? Hmm... Wow! Hippo crossing? Excuse me, can you let
me through please? Thank you! Bye bye!
Daddy:
Okay, Truck Driver Caillou. It's time to get some grub.
Caillou:
Okay!
Storyteller:
In the restaurant, Rosie sat in a high chair, but Caillou got to sit in the booth like a big boy.
He could even pick out what he wanted on the menu, because it had pictures.
Caillou:
I'd like a cheese sandwich please.
Mommy:
What would you like to drink, Caillou?
Caillou:
Moo! Milk, please.
Storyteller:
After lunch they drove some more. Caillou was starting to get tired of driving.
Mommy:
Caillou. Look up ahead!
Caillou:
Is that a ferry boat? Are we going on it?
Daddy:
You bet!
Storyteller:
Caillou had never been on a ferry boat before.
Caillou:
Can I go look at the boat?
Daddy:
Not yet. We can't get out of the car until we hear the horn.
Caillou:
That's loud. One, two, three, four, five cars!
Daddy:
This is just a little ferry. There are big ferry boats that can carry a hundred cars.
Caillou:
Wow! Look Daddy! The birds are following us!
Daddy:
Those are seagulls.
Caillou:
Arr, arr, arr!!
Daddy:
Caillou, look, it's the captain.
Captain:
Welcome aboard!
Storyteller:

283
The ferry boat captain showed Caillou the controls of the boat. And when they got close to
shore, he even let Caillou blow the horn.
Daddy:
So Caillou, did you enjoy your very first ferry boat ride?
Caillou:
Yeah! Especially the horn! Rosie slept through the whole ferry ride. That's okay, because I
can tell her about it when she wakes up.
Storyteller:
Caillou thought about all the nice surprises they'd found today, the cows and the gas
pumps and the big truck and the restaurant where he ordered for himself and the ferry
boat with the loud, loud horn. Caillou decided he liked car trips, especially when they didn't
know where they were going.

[Song]a car trip

Daddy:
Caillou, Rosie, let's get in the car. Time to go.
Caillou:
I'm so excited cause we're taking a trip.
But Daddy won't tell me where.
Daddy:
Come on everybody, put your safety belt on.
It's gonna take a little while to get there.
Caillou:
It's fun to count the cars one by one.
Daddy:
Tell me all the colours you see.
Caillou:
There's a blue car, a red truck, a motorcycle.
And look, he's waving at me.
Caillou & Daddy:
We're driving in the car, car, car.
We're going very far, far, far.
Do you know where we are, are, are?
Yes, we're driving in the car.
Caillou:
Look, Daddy, a cow!
Daddy:
A trip to the country, a trip to the city.
Caillou:
A trip to really cool places.
Daddy:
A car trip can be so much fun.
Caillou:

284
Meeting new friends and interesting faces.
Caillou & Daddy:
We're driving in the car, car, car.
We're going very far, far, far.
Do you know where we are, are, are?
Yes, we're driving in the car.
We're driving in the car, car, car.
We're driving in the car!

223. Caillou And the Dragon

Storyteller:
It was a special day at Caillou's playschool. A young boy named Alan was coming to visit.
Miss Martin:
Now everyone, I'd like you to meet a new friend, Alan.
Children:
Hi, Alan!
Miss Martin:
Alan has come to find out what playschool is all about. If he likes it, he may be attending.
Clementine:
Come on, Alan, we'll show you around.
Caillou:
Yeah, come on! How old are you?
Alan:
I'm five.
Caillou:
I'm only four, but I'm getting older every day.
Alan:
Me too!
Caillou:
Hmm, don't you know how to climb?
Alan:
I'm climbing!
Caillou:
Hold on here. And step up here and pull yourself up. Now swing your leg over.
Alan:
I did it!
Caillou:
Look at me! I'm swinging!
Alan:
I'm swinging too!
Caillou:
I can help!
Alan:

285
Whoa!
Caillou:
Hold on! Do this, Alan!
Alan:
Mom, look! I'm really swinging!
Storyteller:
Caillou wondered why Alan was having so much trouble with climbing and swinging. After
all, Alan was a whole year older. Alan and his Mom brought a special treat, brownies for the
whole class. Everyone enjoyed them very much.
Caillou:
Miss Martin, Alan is older than I am. Why can't he do the things I can do?
Miss Martin:
Some things are hard for him to learn and he might need a little more practice. I'm so
happy to see what a big helper you're being to Alan.
Caillou:
I bet there are some things he can do even better than I can.
Miss Martin:
I'm sure you're right.
Clementine:
Let's make up a play! I'm going to the jungle to take pictures of wild animals.
Leo:
I'll be the driver! I'll drive a jeep.
Clementine:
What will you be, Caillou?
Storyteller:
Caillou wondered what Alan was going to dress up as.
Clementine:
Come on, Caillou, let's plan our play.
Storyteller:
Soon they were ready to show everyone their play.
Clementine:
I'm going to Africa to take pictures of wild jungle animals.
Leo:
I'm the driver. Here we go!
Clementine:
Wait for me!
Caillou:
I'm a wild animal! Take my picture! Roar, roar!
Alan:
I'm a dragon!
Clementine:
Dragons don't live in the jungle. They live in fairytales.
Alan:
Growl!

286
Caillou:
Look! This dragon is visiting the jungle for the very first time.
Clementine:
A dragon in the jungle? I'd better take a picture of him.
Alan:
Growl! Growl! Growl!
Clementine:
Hold still, dragon!
Alan:
Growl! Growl! Growl!
Miss Martin:
It's okay!
Clementine:
Hey, dragon! Look at him go!
Caillou:
I am a magic dragon tamer and I will tame the dragon.
Alan:
Growl!
Caillou:
Oh, oh! Little dragon, you can be good. You are a good little dragon. Oh, oh! Oh! You don't
have to bad and scare people. Everybody wants to be your friend. Yeah! The dragon is now
tame. He's going to take me for a dragon ride. Take a picture, Clementine. We're flying.
Kids:
Yeah!
Alan:
Yeah! Yahoo! We're flying!
Caillou:
Hee-haw!
Alan:
Yahoo!
Caillou:
Oh, oh! I found out what Alan is really good at. Acting!
Miss Martin:
He certainly is! And I found a couple of things you're very good at, Caillou.
Caillou:
You did?
Miss Martin:
You're a good dragon tamer but you're also an excellent friend.
Clementine:
Now we're dragons, Caillou.
Caillou:
Come here, little dragons.
Alan:
I love playschool!

287
Storyteller:
Alan's first day at playschool turned out to be so much fun everyone hoped to see him back
again.

224. Caillou's Surprise

Storyteller:
It was a lovely, peaceful morning at Caillou's house.
Caillou:
Mommy, can I have some juice, please?
Mommy:
Of course you can. Your glass is in the dish tray.
Storyteller:
Caillou didn't want to use his regular glass. He wanted to drink from a cup, just like
Mommy and Daddy.
Mommy:
Oops! Hold still, Caillou, I don't want you cutting your feet.
Rosie:
Oh!
Mommy:
Oh, what a shame. That's the cup that Grandma made for me!
Caillou:
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to break it.
Mommy:
I know you didn't, honey. It was an accident. Well, I better put these in the trash outside.
Grandma:
Hello there, Caillou. What's the matter?
Caillou:
Hi, Grandma. I broke Mommy's favourite cup. The one you made for her.
Grandma:
Well, I'm sure it was an accident. Don't worry about it. I'll tell you what. I'm going to the
craft centre today. Why don't you come along and make her a new one!
Caillou:
Really?
Grandma:
Sure! We'll tell Mommy you're coming to help me, we won't say you're making her a new
cup. That way it'll be a nice surprise for her.
Caillou:
This is like school!
Grandma:
That's right! You're never too old to keep learning. This will keep your clothes clean.
Caillou:
I like that one. Can I make a cup like that, Grandma?
Grandma:
I don't see why not. I'm gonna help you.

288
Caillou:
Hmm, it's like my play clay at home.
Grandma:
It is similar. Except we put this clay in a big oven to dry, and it becomes as hard as rock.
Caillou:
It goes around.
Grandma:
This is how we make pottery. Watch.
Storyteller:
Caillou was amazed. Grandma's pot was appearing like magic!
Caillou:
I'm gonna make a cup for Mommy. Now I'm gonna make a car for Mommy. And now I'm
gonna make a flying car. Whee!
Grandma:
What's so funny?
Caillou:
I'm thinking about what I'm gonna make.
Grandma:
Well, come here and let's get started on your cup. Just hold your hands like this until the
clay takes the shape of a cup. Not too tight, now.
Caillou:
It's like playing with mud in the backyard.
Grandma:
Maybe that's why everyone likes to do it. Well done, Caillou! Now I'll hollow out the inside.
Would you like to make the handle? Just roll the clay this way.
Caillou:
Can I put it on?
Grandma:
Now we have to bake the clay in an oven for a short while to let it dry.
Caillou:
How long does it take?
Grandma:
Not very long.
Storyteller:
After a while Grandma took their cup and pot out of the oven. When they cooled down,
Grandma and Caillou sat down to paint them.
Caillou:
Are there any other paints? I don't like these colours.
Grandma:
The colours will turn bright when the cup is fired in the oven.
Caillou:
It has to go in the oven again?
Storyteller:
Caillou was disappointed. His cup didn't look as nice as all the others. He didn't think the

289
colours would really get brighter.
Grandma:
This time it'll fire in the oven overnight and we can come back for it tomorrow.
Caillou:
But I wanted to give it to Mommy today.
Grandma:
Just be a little patient, Caillou. It's only one day. Some things are worth waiting for.
Storyteller:
The next day Caillou was playing with Rosie when Grandma came to pick him up.
Grandma:
Caillou! Do you remember what we need to do today?
Caillou:
Hmm...
Grandma:
We're going back to the craft centre.
Caillou:
Mommy's cup!
Grandma:
Shhh! Don't forget, it's a surprise! All the finished pottery should be over there.
Caillou:
Here's your pot, Grandma.
Grandma:
Thank you, Caillou. But, what about your cup?
Caillou:
Oh!
Grandma:
Remember how you made the handle?
Caillou:
There it is! The colours changed!
Grandma:
That's what happens when we fire the pottery, Caillou. It takes a little longer than
modeling clay, but it's worth the extra time.
Caillou:
I'm glad I waited! Would you like some coffee, Mommy?
Mommy:
Not right now, sweetie, thank you.
Caillou:
Hmm... Would you like some milk or juice?
Mommy:
I'm not thirsty, but thanks for asking. What's going on?
Caillou:
Close your eyes, Mommy. Surprise! I made this for you!
Mommy:
Caillou, it's beautiful! How did you do it?

290
Daddy:
Grandma helped a little.
Caillou:
And I promise I won't break this one.
Mommy:
Thank you very much. It's the best present anyone could ever get.
Storyteller:
Caillou could tell Mommy really liked his cup. Grandma was right. Some things really are
worth waiting for!

225. A Surprise For Miss Martin

Storyteller:
One day at playschool Leo was telling everyone about a party he'd been to.
Leo:
My cousin had a birthday party for his pet goldfish Herman.
Caillou:
His goldfish? Did he get presents and everything?
Leo:
Yup. He got a little diver that blows bubbles and moves up and down in his fishtank.
Caillou:
A diver?
Clementine:
That's funny!
Miss Martin:
Herman the goldfish's birthday is in the month of June, just like mine.
Caillou:
When's your birthday?
Miss Martin:
It's next week, on Monday.
Storyteller:
Caillou wanted to do something special for Miss Martin's birthday. But he knew he'd need
help.
Caillou:
We should have a surprise party for Miss Martin's birthday.
Clementine:
That sounds like fun!
Leo:
Yeah!
Mommy:
Caillou!
Caillou:
Oh! I have to go, bye!
Clementine & Leo:

291
Bye!
Caillou:
Miss Martin's birthday is on Monday. Clementine and Leo and I wanna have a surprise
birthday party for her.
Mommy:
Oh! That sounds like fun. You're going to need food.
Caillou:
Hmm... Can we make cupcakes? And we need a present too! A surprise present.
Storyteller:
Caillou thought about what would be a good surprise for Miss Martin.
Caillou:
Surprise!
Miss Martin:
Oh! What a shiny car! Oh my! Why, thank you! I've always wanted a cape! Goodness! I love
airplanes! Ready for take-off.
Storyteller:
Caillou realized that the presents he'd like to get wouldn't be so good for Miss Martin. He
wondered what Miss Martin would like. Maybe Leo and Clementine would know. The next
day Caillou's friends came over to help Caillou plan the party. They started by making
birthday cupcakes.
Mommy:
Now for some eggs.
Rosie:
Rosie help! Uh-oh!
Mommy:
Don't worry, Rosie, we can clean that up. Why don't you mix the batter instead?
Caillou:
What present should we give Miss Martin?
Leo:
An eraser that never gets smaller.
Clementine:
Or a pink pen with feathers on it.
Caillou:
I know! We can make her a birthday card!
Clementine:
My Mommy likes to get flowers on her birthday. I bet Miss Martin does too.
Caillou:
Good idea!
Mommy:
I can show you how to make paper flowers if you like.
Caillou & Clementine & Leo:
Yeah! Alright!
Caillou:
Let's go make the card first!

292
Clementine:
I drew a butterfly!
Caillou:
I'm drawing happy faces on the balloons because they're happy it's Miss Martin's birthday.
Leo:
And I'm drawing a big cake with lots of candles on it.
Rosie:
Rosie draw!
Clementine:
Okay, Rosie, here, you can color the grass.
Mommy:
Very nice! Miss Martin will love it. Are you ready to make some paper flowers?
Caillou & Clementine & Leo:
Yeah!
Mommy:
Okay, first we draw some simple flowers next to each other on our sheet.
Rosie:
Pretty flower!
Mommy:
That's wonderful, Rosie! Okay, now we cut them out. Now we take each flower and poke a
small hole in it using our pipe cleaner and slide the flower down a little bit. Then curl the
top of your pipe cleaner down to make the middle of your flower.
Caillou:
Look at my flower!
Mommy:
They all look beautiful! Now we make some more until we have a nice big bunch.
Caillou & Clementine & Leo:
Yeah!
Caillou:
Now don't forget, Clementine, you bring the card, and Leo, you bring the flowers. I'll bring
the cupcakes.
Leo:
Okay.
Clementine:
Bye Caillou!
Storyteller:
Caillou was very excited about surprising Miss Martin. He couldn't wait for her birthday to
arrive. On Monday morning they brought the card and the flowers and the cupcakes.
Caillou:
Remember, it's a surprise, okay, you guys?
Storyteller:
And they had to be especially careful that Miss Martin didn't see them.
Caillou:
Miss Martin? Can you close your eyes?

293
Miss Martin:
Okay, but just for a minute.
Caillou:
When I count to three, okay? One, two, three...
Kids:
Surprise! Happy Birthday!
Miss Martin:
Oh my! Such a wonderful card! And these beautiful flowers too! Thank you! Cupcakes, too?
Lovely! You really thought of everything!
Caillou:
We made the cupcakes ourselves. Mommy helped too.
Miss Martin:
Oh my, mmmm...
Kids:
They look good. She likes them!
Clementine:
I'm gonna have one.
Caillou:
Daddy! We had a fun party! Miss Martin was really surprised and she liked her cupcake too!
Can I have a surprise party for my birthday?
Daddy:
Ha ha ha! We'll see.

[Song]we're having a party

We're having a party.
We're gonna have a good time.
All my friends are here and it's gonna be a special day.
We're having a party.
We're gonna play lots of games.
All right!
We're gonna dance around then everybody shouts hooray!
Hooray!
There are different kinds of parties.
You can celebrate lots of things.
Birthdays, holidays, graduations.
And we all get to sing, la la la la!
We're having a party.
We're having a party.
Everybody put on your hat.
Put on your hat.
We're gonna eat a lot of cake and make some noise
Yeah!
It's fun to get presents.

294
But I like giving them more.
Cause making somebody happy is the very best present for sure.
We're having a party.
We're having a party.
And now it's almost done.
It's almost done.
Now let's all help clean up.
Yes, having a party is fun.

226. A Surprise Sleepover

Storyteller:
It was early evening and Caillou and Sarah were having fun playing outside.
Caillou:
I caught it!
Sarah:
It looks like it's going to rain.
Caillou:
Daddy's home!
Daddy:
Hi, Caillou. Hi, Sarah. I feel drops! Did someone leave the sprinkler on?
Caillou:
No, Daddy! It's raining!
Mommy:
Hurry up, everybody, or you'll get all wet!
Daddy:
Hurry up! Hurry up!
Mommy:
Just in time! You almost got soaked.
Caillou:
Gilbert's a scaredy cat. I'm not afraid of storms. Uh-oh.
Daddy:
Stay right where you are everybody. I'll find a flashlight.
Rosie:
Mommy!
Mommy:
Don't worry! I'm right here, sweetie.
Daddy:
Here we are!
Rosie:
No!
Daddy:
Don't worry, Rosie, it's only me.
Mommy:

295
I've got some candles in the kitchen.
Daddy:
To the kitchen!
Caillou & Sarah:
To the kitchen!
Storyteller:
At first Caillou was a little afraid when the lights went out, but with the candles lit things
didn't look so scary anymore.
Daddy:
Here we go.
Caillou:
Why did the lights go out, Daddy?
Daddy:
Oh, I think the rainstorm caused it. Sometimes lightning hits power lines and makes the
power go out.
Sarah:
Let's see if everybody else's lights are out too.
Caillou:
Yeah! Wow! All the lights in the whole world went out.
Daddy:
Probably just the lights in our neighbourhood. Let's listen to the radio and find out what's
happening. Aw! Cut it out! I can't see.
Radio:
Officials expect power to be restored shortly.
Daddy:
We just have to wait a little longer and the lights will come back on.
Caillou:
How come the radio works when we don't have power?
Sarah:
Batteries! Right?
Daddy:
You're absolutely right. We don't have to plug the radio into the wall to make it run
because it runs on batteries. Just like the flashlights. See?
Sarah:
Can I use your phone? I'd better call my mom.
Mommy:
Good idea. I bet there's no power at your house either. Why don't I call and ask her if you
can stay here for the night?
Caillou:
Yeah! Ask her!
Sarah:
Okay!
Storyteller:
Sarah's mom said it was okay for Sarah to stay over. After dinner Caillou and Sarah built a

296
tent so they could pretend they were camping.
Rosie:
Caillou! Caillou!
Caillou:
Come on in, Rosie, but be careful or the tent will fall down. Mommy, can you turn off the
lantern? The dark is more fun.
Rosie:
Rosie scared.
Mommy:
It's okay, sweetie.
Rosie:
Gilbert!
Sarah:
Look Caillou, it's a scary monster.
Storyteller:
Even though Caillou knew it was just Gilbert, he didn't want Sarah to talk about scary
monsters.
Caillou:
No monsters!
Sarah:
Sorry Caillou, I didn't mean to scare you. Let's pretend we're explorers and we can follow
Gilbert around the house.
Caillou:
Look Sarah! Gilbert is running after the light.
Sarah:
Over here, Gilbert!
Caillou:
Over here, Gilbert! Hey!
Sarah:
Aw!
Daddy:
Okay, now that the lights are on, it's time for bed.
Storyteller:
Caillou and Sarah were disappointed that the lights were on again. They were having so
much fun. But Gilbert was looking a little tired out.
Daddy:
All set, kids?
Caillou:
Can we sleep in our tent? We're camping in the forest.
Daddy:
Sure, I'll go get some sleeping bags for you.
Sarah:
Look, I can make a bunny rabbit. There are lots of rabbits here in the forest. And deer and
squirrels.

297
Caillou:
And bears too. Big bears! They're the biggest in the forest!
Storyteller:
Caillou pretended he was really in the woods with all the animals.
Caillou:
What's wrong, little bunny? Are you afraid of the dark? You can come with me. I'm Forest
Ranger Caillou, and I'm not afraid of the dark! Are you scared too? Come on with us! Watch
this! I can make a bunny rabbit! And a bear! Don't worry, it's not a real bear. And you
shouldn't be afraid of bears, you are a bear! Look Sarah. I can make a bear. Sarah?
Daddy:
Sorry, it took so long, I had the hardest time finding... sweet dreams.

227. Caillou the Patient

Storyteller:
It was a beautiful day and Caillou, Mommy and Rosie were going to the park. Caillou was
trying to decide which toy to take.
Caillou:
I'm gonna take my airplane. Let's go!
Mommy:
Wait for us!
Caillou:
Look at me, Mommy! My plane can fly really fast. I'm the fastest jet pilot in the whole wide
world..
Radio:
Caillou, you're flying faster than anyone ever has before.
Caillou:
Yahoo!
Mommy:
Slow down, Caillou. You don't have your running shoes on. Oh, Caillou! Are you all right?
Storyteller:
Caillou had scraped his knees, and they really really hurt.
Rosie:
Caillou fall down.
Caillou:
Ow! It hurts, Mommy! Ow! Ow!
Rosie:
Booboo.
Mommy:
Oh, poor Caillou. You'll be okay. Let's get you home so I can fix you up. You are my first
patient today. I see you've had quite a tumble, so first I'll have to examine the wound and
check for broken bones.
Storyteller:
Caillou thought it was funny that Mommy was pretending to be a doctor.
Mommy:

298
Good! First we need to clean you up a bit. We'll have you back up in your plane in no time.
Caillou:
Ouch!
Mommy:
Oh, it'll just take a second.
Storyteller:
Caillou tried to be brave, just like a real jet pilot would be.
Mommy:
I know what my patient needs now. Nurse Rosie, could you please get me a cotton swab
from that tin?
Rosie:
Nurse Rosie!
Mommy:
This will keep the wound clean so it will heal quickly. Now we need something else. Do you
know what that is, Nurse Rosie?
Rosie:
Bandage!
Mommy:
Ah-ha! Exactly! Now how about a tall glass of special 'get better' juice?
Caillou:
Ouchy!
Mommy:
That's going to be a little sore for a while. How about I give you a plane ride?
Rosie:
Rosie too!
Mommy:
Rosie, you can be my co-pilot. You go ahead and show me the way. There you go, I gave
you a window seat in your very own airplane.
Storyteller:
Caillou's knees still hurt a little, but he really liked his new bandages.
Rosie:
Caillou booboo airplane.
Mommy:
Well, you must be a very special passenger on this flight. Only special passengers get a
cookie.
Caillou:
Thank you.
Storyteller:
Caillou thought his knees felt a little better. He wanted to see if they would hurt when he
walked.
Clementine:
Try to catch me! Billy!
Caillou:
Leo! There's Clementine and Billy! And I saw Leo too! I think they're going to the park.

299
Mommy:
Are my patient's knees working all right? Why don't you try a couple of steps around the
living room? Oops, I mean the airplane.
Storyteller:
Caillou thought his knees felt much better now.
Rosie:
Rosie made better.
Caillou:
I'm pilot Caillou and we're taking off on a flight to the park.
Mommy:
Well, your landing gear seems to be in fine working order. Let me check with my co-pilot.
Rosie, can we land at the park?
Rosie:
Park!
Mommy:
The park it is, and I've got just the thing that a pilot and co-pilot need for a successful
flight to the park.
Caillou:
Look, Mommy, I'm a good pilot.
Mommy:
Yes, that's why you've got your wings badge. And what do all good pilots wear when they
want to run?
Caillou:
Running shoes!
Mommy:
Right!
Caillou:
Clementine! Leo!
Clementine:
Caillou! What happened to your plane?
Caillou:
I had a crash landing! See?
Clementine & Leo:
Oh...
Caillou:
And when I got all better Mommy gave me my pilot's wings.
Leo:
Cool.
Clementine:
You sure are brave, Caillou. Does it still hurt?
Caillou:
It did at first, but not anymore.
Rosie:
Rosie co-pilot.

300
Leo:
I can fly the fastest. Try to catch me. Whoa! Ooof!
Clementine:
Are you all right, Leo?
Leo:
Yup.
Caillou:
I'm gonna be the doctor. First I have to examine the wound. That's your booboo. Next we
have to clean the wound. All clean. Now let's see if everything works. You're all better!
Leo:
Thanks, Doctor Caillou!
Caillou:
Is everyone ready for take-off?
Rosie & Leo & Clementine:
Yeah!
Caillou:
Start your engines!

228. Caillou the Police Officer

Storyteller:
One day Caillou and Mommy were on their way to playschool, and Caillou was helping
Mommy drive.
Caillou:
That means turn, Mommy.
Mommy:
Thank you, Caillou.
Caillou:
Red light, Mommy. That means stop.
Mommy:
Right you are, Caillou.
Caillou:
Green means go. The lights aren't on.
Mommy:
They must be broken. And those workers are going to fix them.
Caillou:
What's the policeman doing?
Mommy:
He's showing the cars when to stop and when to go, since the lights can't do it.
Caillou:
Now they have to stop. And we can go.
Miss Martin:
Don't you wanna play with the others, Caillou?
Caillou:

301
Uh-huh. I'm watching the policeman directing traffic.
Miss Martin:
Oh, I see.
Caillou:
I thought policemen just caught bad guys.
Miss Martin:
Oh no, they help people in lots of other ways.
Caillou:
Really?
Miss Martin:
Oh yes. They make sure that people drive their cars safely so no one gets hurt. They can
help drivers who are lost find where they're going. And if any children are lost they can
help them find their way home again.
Caillou:
Wow!
Storyteller:
Caillou decided he'd like to help people like police officers do.
Caillou:
This looks like a job for Police Officer Caillou! Don't cry. Did you lose your Mommy and
Daddy? Well, don't worry, we'll find them. Over here! All in a day's work!
Radio:
Officer Caillou! We need you at Main Street and Tenth!
Caillou:
I'm on my way.
Storyteller:
Caillou wanted to help people, but he especially wanted to direct traffic. And he knew just
what he needed for that.
Caillou:
Perfect!
Leo:
Hey!
Caillou:
I'm Officer Caillou and you have to stop.
Clementine:
We were playing!
Leo:
Try to catch me!
Clementine:
Caillou!
Caillou:
Hmm. They were supposed to stop.
Miss Martin:
They were playing a game before you came along. You know, you can only help people
when they want some help. And that whistle is very loud. You must be more careful and not

302
blow it in anybody's ear or it could hurt them.
Caillou:
Okay. Why are you chasing Leo?
Clementine:
He's a bad guy. He just robbed the bank!
Caillou:
A bad guy! Well, I'm a policeman! Gotcha!
Leo:
Oh no!
Clementine:
Now he's gonna put you in jail.
Caillou:
Yeah. Come on, bank robber!
Leo:
How long do I have to stay in here?
Clementine:
A hundred years!
Miss Martin:
Children!
Caillou:
Okay, you can come out if you promise you won't do it again.
Leo:
I promise!
Storyteller:
That afternoon Caillou helped clean up after snacktime.
Miss Martin:
Since it's such a nice day, why don't we have storytime outside?
Kids:
Yeah! All right!
Storyteller:
The workers had finished fixing the traffic lights. Caillou wondered where the policeman
was. The Police Officer looked very hot. Caillou thought he might be thirsty.
Miss Martin:
Caillou?
Caillou:
Miss Martin, can I give some juice to the policeman?
Miss Martin:
That's a very good idea, Caillou. Go ahead.
Caillou:
Hello. Would you like some juice?
Policeman:
Hello there! Yes please. It sure is hot out here! Thank you!
Caillou:
Why did you give that car a ticket?

303
Policeman:
Because it's not supposed to be here. It's blocking the fire hydrant, and if there was a fire,
the firefighters wouldn't be able to hook up their hoses.
Caillou:
That's another way you help people. Where's your police car?
Policeman:
I don't have one. I have this!
Caillou:
A bike? You ride a bike just like I do!
Policeman:
That's right. Thanks for the drink, uh...
Caillou:
My name is Caillou.
Policeman:
Well, thank you very much Caillou. It was very nice to meet you. But now I think you'd
better join your friends. Looks like you're missing out on a story.
Caillou:
Oops. I gotta go. Bye!
Storyteller:
Caillou was glad he'd made a new friend. And he couldn't wait to go home and tell Mommy
and Daddy that he had helped a police officer!

[Song]A helping hand

Grandpa:
Caillou, there are people who help us every day.
Like doctors, police officers, fire fighters, and teachers.
But you know what?
We can also help each other.
If someone has a problem and things aren't so grand.
Just reach out, do the best you can.
Give them a helping hand.
Just give them a hand, give them a hand.
Give them a helping hand.
Give them a hand, give them a hand.
Give them a helping hand.
It's neighbours helping neighbours.
Caillou:
A friend helping a friend.
Grandpa:
You help me.
Caillou:
And I'll help you.
Both:

304
Then we both win in the end.
Just give them a hand, give them a hand.
Give them a helping hand.
Give them a hand, give them a hand.
Give them a helping hand.
Grandpa:
Caillou, I've got to move this box. Can you help me?
Caillou:
Sure, Grandpa, I'll give you a hand.

229. Grandpa's Friend

Storyteller:
Caillou was waiting for his Grandpa to arrive. They were going to the park today.
Caillou:
Grandpa!
Storyteller:
Caillou and Grandpa decided to ride the bus to the park.
Caillou:
Don't you have to pay, Grandpa?
Grandpa:
Nope! I have a bus pass to ride free, just like you!
Storyteller:
Caillou loved riding the bus. It was so big, and there were new people getting on or off at
every stop. Caillou had never seen this park before. He couldn't see any swings or slides. He
wondered what they could play in a park like this.
George:
Hey, kid!
Caillou:
My name's Caillou.
Grandpa:
This is my friend George. He calls me "kid" because he's older than I am.
George:
I met your grandpa many, many years ago, in this very park. He was only about this tall
back then.
Caillou:
Even Rosie is bigger than that!
George:
Come on. I just finished setting up.
Grandpa:
I hope you like riddles, Caillou.
Caillou:
What are these for?
Grandpa:

305
We're going to play croquet. You and I could be a team.
Storyteller:
Caillou didn't know how to play croquet, and he was too embarrassed to ask. He felt a little
shy around Grandpa's friend George.
George:
Hey Caillou! Do you like riddles?
Grandpa:
Ho, ho, ho. Here we go.
George:
What animal can jump higher than a house? Any animal! Houses can't jump!
Caillou:
I know a riddle. What kind of fish chases a mouse? A catfish!
George:
Oh! That's a good one! Would you like an apple, Caillou?
Caillou:
This is Rexy! He's a dinosaur.
Storyteller:
Caillou didn't feel so shy after all. He thought Grandpa's friend was a lot like his friends,
only older. After lunch they began their game of croquet. Grandpa showed Caillou what to
do.
Grandpa:
Just aim the mallet and tap the ball.
Storyteller:
Caillou wondered how far he could hit the ball if he swung really really hard.
Caillou:
Yeah!
Grandpa:
Just tap it! We don't wanna send it all the way to Timbuktu!
Caillou:
I missed!
George:
That's okay, you can do it over. Special beginner's rule. That's pretty good, Caillou. You're a
natural.
Grandpa:
I think there's something wrong with your ball.
George:
I think so too. Hey, this isn't my ball!
Caillou:
It's an apple!
George:
You're just like your Grandpa. He was always playing tricks on me when he was little.
Storyteller:
Caillou loved the idea that he and Grandpa were alike. But he still couldn't imagine Grandpa
as a little boy.

306
George:
Still, I did tap your ball. My play. There it goes kid, right into the pond again.
Caillou:
We lost our ball!
Grandpa:
That's okay, we can get it back. Come on.
Caillou:
Why did George say it fell in the pond again?
Grandpa:
He was talking about the first time we ever played croquet together. Boy, that takes me
back. It was right here, in this park. I must have been about ten years old and about this
tall. I knocked my ball too hard and it bounced all the way into the pond.
Caillou:
Just like our ball, Grandpa!
Grandpa:
Yep! And when I tried to get it back, I lost my balance and fell in the pond.
Caillou:
Maybe you wanted to go swimming, but you just didn't know it.
Grandpa:
I never thought of that. Maybe I did.
Storyteller:
George said Caillou was just like his Grandpa, but now Caillou thought Grandpa was just
like him too.
Caillou:
Yeah! That means we can keep playing.
Grandpa:
That's right, Caillou.
Caillou:
We found our ball!
George:
The kid didn't fall in again, did he?
Grandpa:
All you have to do to win is knock the ball through the last hoop and try to hit that wooden
pin.
George:
Very impressive, Caillou. Are you sure you've never played croquet before?
Caillou:
Nope.
George:
I won! That was a close game. I thought for sure you'd beat me, Caillou.
Caillou:
I like croquet! It's fun!
Storyteller:
Soon it was time to go back home.

307
230. Caillou's Valentines
Storyteller:
One fine morning Mommy made Caillou and Rosie an extra-special breakfast!
Mommy:
Here you go! Enjoy!
Caillou:
Thanks, Mommy! Look, Rosie! Hearts!!
Daddy:
That's right, Caillou. It's a very special day today!
Mommy:
Oh, thank you! They're beautiful!
Caillou:
Is it your birthday, Mommy?
Mommy:
No, Caillou. It's Valentine's Day!
Storyteller:
Caillou remembered Valentine's Day. He had gone to a Valentine's party last year at Leo's.
Daddy:
It's the day when people tell others how much they care about them.
Caillou:
But, you tell Mommy that all the time.
Daddy:
Yes, but sometimes it's nice to show it too, with flowers or a card.
Mommy:
We have something for you and Rosie too. Happy Valentine's Day! Now you each have your
very own Valentine.
Caillou:
Thanks, Mommy!
Daddy:
Thank you.
Rosie:
Oh! Sticky!
Storyteller:
Caillou liked his stickers very much, but he was curious about the little boy with the arrow.
Caillou:
Who's this, Daddy?
Daddy:
That's Cupid. It's his job to fly around delivering love to people using his bow and arrow.
Rosie:
Cupid?
Caillou:
Rosie!
Mommy:

308
Perhaps we'd better put away the stickers for now, and finish our breakfast.
Daddy:
Good idea! And Caillou, you don't want to be late for playschool. I hear Miss Martin has a
special Valentine's Day planned.
Caillou:
She does? Oh, boy!
Miss Martin:
Can anyone tell me what today is? Yes, Caillou?
Caillou:
It's Valentine's Day!
Miss Martin:
That's right, and today we're going to make special Valentine's cards for all our playschool
friends. You'll each get to decorate some cards, so you can give one to each of your
playmates. When we're all done, we'll deliver them to these mailboxes, and then everyone
can take theirs home with them.
Storyteller:
Caillou was having a lot of fun making Valentine cards. He wished every day could be
Valentine's Day.
Caillou:
Mine is for my very best friend.
Leo:
Hey, mine too!
Caillou:
Nice picture, Leo!
Storyteller:
Suddenly, Caillou's Valentine didn't seem quite so special anymore.
Leo:
And I really like yours too.
Caillou:
Thanks!
Storyteller:
Knowing Leo liked the Valentine, made Caillou feel much better, especially since the
Valentine was for him.
Miss Martin:
Wonderful. When you're all finished we can start delivering them.
Leo:
I'm done!
Caillou:
Me too!
Miss Martin:
One for Emma! Now Leo's mailbox, and you're done! Good job! It's your turn, Caillou. Do
you need any help?
Caillou:
No thanks, Miss Martin. I can do it myself. Happy Valentine's Day, Clementine! A big heart

309
for you, Emma! Now, for my very best friend, Leo! Oh no!
Storyteller:
Leo's was the very last mailbox, and Caillou had run out of cards. He couldn't find the card
he'd made for Leo anywhere.
Miss Martin:
Is something the matter, Caillou?
Caillou:
I can't find Leo's Valentine. I think I lost it.
Miss Martin:
Oh dear. Tell you what, why don't we have our snack now, and while the class is eating,
you can have a look for it?
Caillou:
But what if I can't find it? Leo is my best friend, I have to give him a Valentine.
Miss Martin:
We could always make him another one.
Caillou:
Yeah! Can you help me, Miss Martin?
Miss Martin:
Of course I can. Let me get the class seated for their snack, and we'll work together on it.
Storyteller:
Miss Martin had special Valentine's cookies for everyone, but Caillou was too busy to eat.
Miss Martin:
That's beautiful, Caillou!
Caillou:
Thanks. But I still want to add something else.
Miss Martin:
Sure. I can help you with that. "L" for Leo! I'm sure he'll love it.
Caillou:
Open yours, Leo! That one's from me! Do you like it?
Leo:
Yeah! "L" for Leo! Thanks Caillou!
Caillou:
Happy Valentine's Day, Leo!
Leo:
Happy Valentine's Day, Caillou!

231. Hello Spring

Storyteller:
Winter was almost over. Spring was on its way, and the snow was melting. Caillou's
snowman was starting to melt too. Caillou decided to fix him up again.
Caillou:
You look much better now, Mr. Snowman.

310
Mommy:
Caillou, it's lunchtime.
Caillou:
Coming. I'll be back after lunch.
Storyteller:
After lunch Caillou was ready to play in the snow some more, but there was a big surprise
waiting for him.
Caillou:
Oh no!
Storyteller:
Caillou was sad about all the snow melting. He really liked playing in it.
Caillou:
Oh no! Hmm...
Mommy:
Hello sweetheart! What's wrong?
Caillou:
My snowman melted. The snow is almost all gone.
Mommy:
That's too bad, honey. But you know what that means. Spring is coming!
Caillou:
I don't like spring. I like winter.
Mommy:
Oh, but there are lots of nice things about springtime. The weather is warmer, the days are
longer, the flowers start coming up.
Rosie:
Pretty flowers!
Mommy:
Why don't you take off your coat, honey? I'm putting away all our winter clothes. We won't
be needing them again until next winter.
Storyteller:
But Caillou didn't want to put his coat away. He didn't want winter to be over.
Caillou:
No. I'm gonna play in the snow some more.
Mommy:
Thanks, sweetie.
Storyteller:
The sunshine was nice and warm. It felt good.
Daddy:
What's up, sport?
Caillou:
My snowman melted. All the snow is melting.
Daddy:
That's what happens when spring-time comes.
Caillou:

311
I don't want spring to come. I want it to be winter all year.
Daddy:
Oh, spring's not so bad. Can you give me a hand and hold the bag?
Caillou:
Sure! The leaves are yucky.
Daddy:
Yup. That's why I'm cleaning the place up, so it looks nice. And in a few weeks we can plant
flowers.
Caillou:
Can we plant the vegetable garden too?
Daddy:
You bet.
Storyteller:
Caillou remembered how much fun it was to plant the garden last year. He was looking
forward to doing it again.
Caillou:
Are you putting them in the garbage?
Daddy:
This isn't a garbage can, it's a composter. We put old leaves and plants and bits of food in
here, and after a while it turns into nice dirt we can put in the garden to help the plants
grow.
Storyteller:
Caillou was very surprised. He thought the leaves turning into dirt was just like magic.
Daddy:
Now that I'm all done, why don't you and I go for a walk? We could go to the park.
Caillou:
Yeah!
Daddy:
Only let's get you a lighter jacket. You don't need your big winter coat anymore.
Storyteller:
So Caillou put on his spring jacket and he went with Daddy to the park. It felt good to not
have to wear his big winter coat and his mittens and his big scarf anymore.
Daddy:
Look!
Caillou:
That's a robin!
Daddy:
Right! I didn't know you were a bird expert.
Caillou:
Robins have red tummies. We learned that in playschool. He's looking for worms to eat.
Daddy:
Worms? Mmmm, yummy!
Caillou:
Daddy!

312
Daddy:
Canada Geese!
Caillou:
Miss Martin says that all the birds that went away for the winter come back again in the
spring.
Daddy:
That's right. And the animals that sleep through the winter wake up.
Caillou:
Like bears!
Daddy:
You bet.
Storyteller:
Caillou was glad the birds were coming back and the animals were waking up.
Caillou:
The snow's gone from the sandbox. Whee!
Storyteller:
Caillou liked playing in the sandbox. He started thinking of all the other things he could do
now that the snow was gone.
Caillou:
Whee! Whoa! My bike! Whee!
Leo:
Hi, Caillou! Come on in!
Caillou:
Yahoo! Yahoo! Summer comes right after spring, right, Daddy?
Daddy:
Yup. Summer, then fall, and after that it'll be winter again.
Caillou:
I like spring.
Daddy:
Me too.
Storyteller:
When they arrived back home, there was another spring surprise waiting for Caillou.
Caillou remembered how much Rosie and Mommy liked pretty flowers.
Caillou:
Mommy! Rosie! Come quick! Look! Flowers!
Rosie:
Flowers!
Mommy:
Aren't they pretty? Those are called crocuses. They're the first flowers of spring.
Daddy:
Good work, Caillou!
Storyteller:
Caillou was very proud to have spotted the first flowers of spring.
Caillou:

313
I'm glad spring is here! Now I can ride my bike, and play soccer, and play in the sandbox,
and go on the slide and the swings, and play baseball, and go swimming...

[Song]It's Spring
It's Spring, it's Spring.
We're really glad it's spring.
The flowers grow, there's no more snow.
We're really glad it's spring.
It's Spring, it's Spring.
It's time to laugh and sing.
Let go outside,
Caillou:
I'll run , you hide.
All:
We're really glad it's spring.
There's fun things we can do.
A treasure hunt, a barbeque.
Clementine:
Fly a kite.
Sarah:
Go to the zoo.
All:
We're really glad it's spring.
It's Spring, it's Spring,
Caillou:
I'll push you on the swing.
All:
The leaves turn green, it's time to clean.
We're really glad it's spring.
Each season has something to do.
Each season has something's that's new.
We like Spring.
How bout you?
We're really glad it's spring.
Hiking, biking, playing ball.
Young or old, big or small.
Sarah:
I like summer.
Clementine:
I like fall.
All:
But we like spring the best of all.

314
It's Spring, it's Spring.
Finally it's spring.
Here comes the sun.
Let's have some fun.
We're really glad it's...
It's spring!

232. Caillou's April Fool

Storyteller:
One morning at breakfast Daddy did something funny.
Caillou:
Daddy, what are you doing?
Daddy:
I'm playing a little joke on Mommy. Shhh!
Rosie:
Shhh!
Mommy:
Good morning, everyone.
Caillou & Rosie & Daddy:
Good morning!
Mommy:
Thanks. Oh my goodness! It's nine o'clock already? I was sure it was eight. That is strange.
Daddy:
April Fool's!
Caillou:
Daddy changed the clocks!
Daddy:
It's only 8 o'clock, not 9.
Mommy:
That was a good April Fool's joke. You really had me going.
Caillou:
Mommy, what is April Fool's?
Mommy:
Today is April Fool's Day. It's a special day when you play funny jokes and tricks on people,
as long as they are in good fun and don't hurt anybody's feelings.
Caillou:
Can I play jokes too?
Mommy:
Of course you can. But that also means that someone can play a joke on you.
Daddy:
Well, I'd better get started planting the spring bulbs.
Caillou:
What are spring bulbs?

315
Daddy:
They're big flower seeds that will only grow in the spring time, so in about a month we'll
have beautiful flowers in our yard.
Mommy:
I'm gonna get you back.
Daddy:
You can always try.
Storyteller:
Caillou wanted to play an April Fool's trick on Rosie, but he didn't know what kind of a joke
would make her smile. Then Caillou had a great idea, something he was sure would make
Rosie laugh.
Caillou:
Rosie will be so surprised! Quick Gilbert, we have to hide. April Fool's, Rosie!
Rosie:
Dolly wrong.
Caillou:
Yeah, I dressed your dolly. It's a joke.
Rosie:
Caillou play dolly?
Caillou:
Okay. I'll play dolly with you.
Storyteller:
Caillou was disappointed that Rosie didn't laugh at his trick.
Mommy:
Caillou. There's a phone call for you.
Caillou:
Coming! Hello?
Mommy:
Roar! Who is it, Caillou?
Caillou:
I, I don't know. It sounds like a dinosaur.
Mommy:
April Fool! Roar!
Caillou:
That was a good joke, Mommy!
Mommy:
Now it's your turn to play a joke on me.
Caillou:
Okay!
Storyteller:
Caillou wanted to think up a really good joke to play on Mommy.
Mommy:
Yikes!
Caillou:

316
April Fool's!
Storyteller:
Then Caillou had an even better idea for tricking Mommy.
Mommy:
That's strange. I know my slippers are around here somewhere. Oh! How about carrots?
There you go! You're all set.
Caillou:
April Fool's!
Daddy:
Hi, Caillou. What are you up to?
Caillou:
I'm playing a joke on Mommy, don't tell her, okay?
Daddy:
I won't, I promise.
Caillou:
No! Gilbert! Don't!
Mommy:
Oh, Caillou, You found my slippers, thank you. I've been looking all over for them.
Daddy:
Nice try, Caillou. Hey! Every other page in this newspaper is upside down!
Mommy:
April Fool's!
Daddy:
You got me!
Storyteller:
Caillou was determined to play a good joke on someone today. Then he had a very good
idea.
Caillou:
Roar!
Mommy:
Oh my.
Caillou:
April Fool's! Did I trick you?
Mommy:
You sure did! For a moment there I thought a real dinosaur was in our fridge.
Caillou:
That's silly! Now I want to trick Daddy. Can you help me, Mommy?
Mommy:
Sure, I'll help you. What do you have in mind?
Caillou:
Daddy! Daddy! Come quick! Your flowers have already grown big! You didn't have to wait!
Daddy:
Wow! Those must have been magic bulbs!
Caillou:

317
April Fool's!
Daddy:
Hey! Those aren't real flowers, they're plastic. Caillou, you tricked me!
Caillou:
Yeah, and I tricked Gilbert too. April Fool's, Gilbert!

233. a sweet and sour day

Storyteller: Caillou was on his way to Grandma and Grandpa's house, and he was very
eager to get there.
Grandma: Hello, Caillou!
Caillou: Huh? Hi, Grandma!
Mommy: Hi, we're here!
Caillou: Look at my new truck!
Grandma: Isn't that nice?
Mommy: I'll be back in a little while to pick you up! Have fun!
Caillou: Bye, Mommy!
Grandma: Bye bye!
Grandma: I'm doing some work in the garden. Would you like to help me? I think these
flowers could use a drink.
Caillou: I can water them!
Grandma: Thank you!
Storyteller: Caillou liked helping Grandma. It made him feel like a big boy. Caillou
pretended he was driving a big water truck.
Caillou: Looks like you need a drink! Here's some water for Mr. Tree! One shower, coming
up!
Kids: Thank you! Yahoo!
Caillou: Grandma, look!
Grandma: He's come to use the birdbath.
Caillou: Why didn't he want to take a bath?
Grandma: I think I know why. There's no water!
Caillou: Can I put some water in? There's no water left.
Grandma: You can fill it up at the faucet over there.
Caillou: Uh-oh!
Storyteller: Caillou was afraid he had broken the faucet and he didn't know what to do.
Caillou: Grandma! Help!
Grandma: Oh dear! I haven't gotten around to fixing that. It falls off all the time. There you
go.
Storyteller: Caillou was determined to carry the water all by himself.
Caillou: Oh no! Here, birdie, birdie!
Grandma: Good work, Caillou. Now how about we head inside for a snack and dry those
feet off?
Caillou: I can't find the juice, Grandma.
Grandma: Oh dear, looks like we're out. Why don't we make our own juice?
Storyteller: Caillou was very curious. He had never made juice before.

318
Grandma: Grapefruit, and lemons. Perfect!
Caillou: They're cold! Can we use oranges too?
Grandma: Absolutely! First, I'll cut the fruit in half.
Caillou: One, two lemons. One, two oranges. And one, two grapefruits.
Grandma: Thank you, my assistant.
Caillou: It's easy to remember what colour oranges are, because oranges are orange.
Grandma: That's right.
Caillou: Mmm, yummy! I like orange juice! Eww.
Grandma: Grapefruit juice isn't as sweet as orange juice, is it?
Caillou: Nope. Now you're making lemonade! I love lemonade! Eww! It doesn't taste very
good.
Grandma: It's really sour, isn't it? It's not ready to drink until we put in the secret
ingredient. Then it'll be delicious. Here, why don't you try making some juice?
Storyteller: Caillou and Grandma worked very hard, and squeezed juice out of all the fruit.
Caillou: I'm finished, Grandma.
Grandma: Good job, Caillou! Now it's time for the final secret ingredient.
Caillou: What is it?
Grandma: Here, close your eyes. Can you guess what it is?
Storyteller: Caillou was worried that it would taste sour, like the lemon juice did.
Caillou: Mmm. It's sugar!
Grandma: That's right! We can make the sour juice sweet by adding just a little sugar. Do
you wanna put it in? Now give it a stir.
Mommy: Hello? I'm back!
Caillou: Surprise! I made juice with Grandma! Want some?
Mommy: Oh. Yes, please!
Grandma: Caillou was a big help in the garden. He watered all my flowers and filled the bird
bath.
Mommy: You've certainly been busy! Mmm, this tastes great!
Caillou: It's made with orange juice, grapefruit juice, lemon juice, and a secret ingredient.
Sugar! Close your eyes, I have another surprise! Okay, you can look now.

234. Caillou's Puppet Show

Storyteller: One morning at playschool Caillou and his friends were having fun doing crafts.
Caillou was making a finger puppet, but he wasn't the only one with that idea.
Jason: Hi, Caillou!
Caillou: Hi, Jason! I like your puppet!
Jason: The spots were by accident. Jeffrey kept bumping me while I was drawing the face!
Caillou: It has spots like a cow.
Jason: Yeah! It's a cow puppet. Moo!
Caillou: You can be the cow and I'll be the farmer! Come on, Mr. Cow, it's bedtime. Time to
go in the barn.
Jeffrey: Can I play too?
Jason: We're playing farm. You can be a cow too.
Jeffrey: No, I'm gonna be a chicken! Buk buk buk buk buk!

319
Caillou: Would you like some food, Mr. Chicken?
Jeffrey: Buk buk buk buk buk!
Miss Martin: What wonderful puppets! You should put on a puppet show for everybody
tomorrow.
Caillou & Jeffrey & Jason: Yeah!
Miss Martin: And you can use the puppet theatre.
Caillou: Wow!
Jason: Let's do it right now!
Miss Martin: It's time to go home right now. You can do it tomorrow.
Caillou: I'm gonna show Rosie my puppet.
Daddy: Wait, Caillou. Rosie isn't feeling very well.
Caillou: Hi, Rosie! Rosie? Are you feeling sick, Rosie?
Rosie: Rosie's sick!
Daddy: Rosie's sick with the flu.
Caillou: The fool?
Daddy: No, the flu. It's short for influenza. She's gotta stay in bed for a few days, but she'll
be better soon.
Mommy: Here you go, sweetie. Poor Rosie's got a fever.
Daddy: Sometimes when you're sick, you feel hot. That's called a fever.
Mommy: You'll have to stay out of Rosie's room until she's well again, or you might catch
the flu too. All right?
Caillou: Okay, Mommy.
Storyteller: Caillou felt sorry for Rosie. He didn't wanna get sick too, so he stayed out of her
room for the rest of the day. The next morning Caillou woke up feeling kind of funny. He
felt achy. Caillou felt hot and was coughing, and he knew what that meant. He had the flu,
just like Rosie. Caillou knew Mommy would make him stay home from playschool if she
found out he was sick. And today was the puppet show day. He didn't wanna miss the
puppet show. Caillou had to make sure Mommy didn't know he had the flu.
Mommy: Good morning, Caillou. How are you today?
Caillou: Good. I feel good.
Mommy: Hmm. Feels like a fever to me. You'd better go back to bed, sweetie. You've got
the flu.
Caillou: But I have to go to playschool. We're having a puppet show.
Mommy: If you go to playschool with the flu, you'll make all your friends sick too, and you
don't want that, do you?
Caillou: No.
Mommy: Now go up to your room and I'll bring you some juice.
Storyteller: Caillou stayed in bed all morning. He wondered what his friends were doing at
playschool today. They were probably having more fun than he was.
Rosie: Caillou, sick?
Caillou: Yup. Wanna see a puppet show, Rosie?
Rosie: Yeah!
Caillou: This is Farmer Caillou and he lives on a farm with lots of animals. Thank you! Oh,
hello! Thank you! Good morning! Gilbert!

320
Mommy: I think you should take a look out your window, Caillou.
Caillou: Wow!
Mommy: Your friends all want you to get well soon.
Caillou: Hi!
Mommy: And Jason and Jeffrey still wanna put on that puppet show.
Storyteller: Caillou was confused. How could they have their puppet show when he was
sick?
Jason & Jeffrey: Buk buk buk buk buk! Moo! Buk buk buk buk buk!
Storyteller: So Caillou and the twins had their puppet show just as they had planned, even
though Caillou was sick.

[Song] Happy Day

It's a happy day
(It's a happy day)
It's a happy day
(It's a happy day)
It's a happy day
I feel okay.
And it's a happy day.
But there are times we don't feel our best.
When we all just need a little rest.
And with some help before you know.
We'll be back on our feet and ready to go.
It's a happy day
(It's a happy day)
It's a happy day
(It's a happy day)
It's a happy day
I feel okay.
And it's a happy day.
And if you have to stay inside.
There's so much to do, you decide.
You can put on a puppet show.
Use your imagination.
Let's go!
It's a happy day
(It's a happy day)
It's a happy day
(It's a happy day)
It's a happy day
I feel okay.
And it's a happy day.

235. Caillou's Collection

321
Storyteller: Caillou and his family were on a picnic in the park. Caillou was having great fun
playing in a stream when he spotted something very special.
Caillou: Wow! Treasure! More treasure!
Daddy: Come on, Caillou, time to go home.
Storyteller: Caillou didn't want to leave his newfound treasure behind.
Mommy: Let's go, Caillou.
Caillou: My pockets aren't big enough.
Storyteller: Caillou thought of a perfect way to get all his stones back home.
Daddy: This basket seems a lot heavier than when we left.
Caillou: Oh, that's because I put all my stones in there.
Daddy: Well, that explains it.
Caillou: That one's the shiniest. I think it's pirates' treasure.
Rosie: Shiny rock!
Mommy: I think it's bath time for you, sweetie. We'll make you clean and shiny too. Caillou,
you're up next, okay?
Caillou: Okay.
Daddy: That's quite a collection you've got there.
Caillou: A collection?
Daddy: Uh-huh. A collection is when you gather a whole bunch of interesting similar things
and organize them. Like my stamp collection. I don't think the kitchen table is the right
place for your collection, Caillou. You'd better find somewhere else to put your rocks.
Storyteller: So Caillou gathered up his rocks and went to find the perfect place for his
collection.
Mommy: Goodnight, sweetie, what's this? You've got rocks under your pillow.
Caillou: Daddy told me to find a good place for my rock collection.
Mommy: I don't think your bed is such a good place for your rocks. Can you think of
somewhere else to put them? Hmm-hmm. That's perfect.
Caillou: All done!
Mommy: Good. Now you can help me change the sheets on your bed.
Caillou: The white ones go here, and the black ones go here.
Grandpa: Hello, all!
Storyteller: The next day they had a surprise visitor.
Caillou: Hi, Grandpa! Look! I have a rock collection.
Grandpa: Well, look at that! Very impressive! I've got lots of rocks too in my yard, only
they're really big.
Caillou: Really?
Grandpa: You bet. I'm making a path with them, but I have to go out and get some more. I
could use a rock expert like you. Would you like to come along?
Mommy: Uh-huh!
Caillou: Yeah!
Storyteller: Grandpa took Caillou to a quarry. A place where big people go to find big rocks.
Caillou: Wow! Red rocks! White rocks! Invisible rocks! Wow! This rock is bigger than I am.
Grandpa: It sure is. And look over there.
Caillou: These must be the biggest rocks in the world.

322
Grandpa: Would you like to see how they break big rocks into small ones?
Caillou: Yeah!
Storyteller: Caillou was very excited to watch the man breaking up rocks. He imagined
what it would be like to do that himself.
Caillou: Yahoo! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
Grandpa: Would you like to pick one up for your collection?
Caillou: Yes please! This is my most favorite rock ever!
Grandpa: Because it's brand new?
Caillou: Nope. Because it's smiling. Look!
Grandpa: My goodness. So it is. And you have a talent for spotting special rocks, Caillou.
Storyteller: Caillou had such a fun time today with Grandpa that he wanted to thank him.
Caillou: You can have it, Grandpa. It's a present.
Grandpa: Thank you! I'm gonna add this to my rock garden.
Caillou: Grandpa, rocks don't grow in gardens.
Grandpa: Oh no? Come on, I'll show you. This is a rock garden. Rocks don't grow in it, but it
does look nice, don't you think? Perfect!
Storyteller: Then Caillou had a great idea about what he should do with his rock collection.
Caillou: Look! Grandpa and I made a path!
Mommy: Very nice! Such lovely stones!
Caillou: But that's not all. Come on! See? We made a rock garden.
Daddy: Wow! It's great! One of the nicest I've ever seen.
Caillou: Thanks, Rosie. Now my rock garden will grow big and strong.

236. Caillou's Building Adventure

Caillou: Mommy, can we make jam sandwiches, too? They're my favorite.
Mommy: hhh...Ok, Caillou.
Storyteller: Caillou loved helping his mommy. And today they were making lots of
sandwiches.
Caillou: I can do it, all done.
Mommy: That's great. Here, let me cut it in half. See, I'm going to cut it into two.
Caillou: Two triangles.
Rosie: Mommy.
Mommy: Ah-aha, you have to wait until lunch time.
Daddy: That looks like a strawberry jam, Cailliou special.
Mommy: Do you want daddy to put it in the box for you?
Caillou: Oh, boy!
Grandpa: Wed better get going, they're gonna need a lot of helpers to build that house.
Cailliou: Can I come, too? I wanna help build the house.
Daddy: Sorry, Caillou, We'll be really busy working. And there is nothing for you to play
with over there.
Caillou: hum...
Daddy: You've already been a great help by making those sandwiches for the workers.
Storyteller: Caillou still wanted very much to go with daddy and grandpa, and help build
the house.

323
Mommy: What if Caillou went for a quick visit with you? I'll drop Rosie off the grandma's,
and Caillou can come home with me when I bring everybody's lunch.
Grandpa: Sounds like a good plan to me.
Caillou: Yay! Let's go!
Rosie: Yay! Let's go!
Storyteller: Daddy and grandpa were helping a lot of other people build a house for a family
that didn't have one. Caillou was very excited; He couldn't wait to see what everyone was
doing.
Daddy: Just a minute, Caillou. Safety is very important here. That's why we wore work
boots to protect our feet.
Caillou: I've got my boots on.
Grandpa: Good for you. We also need hardhats to protect our heads. Which one would you
like?
Caillou: I can help.
Grandpa: How about helping me by...uh...by carrying these nails?
Caillou: OK.
Daddy: These place can be dangerous, Caillou. You'll have to pay attention and be very
careful. OK?
Caillou: Why?
Daddy: Well,you don't want to get in anybody's way while they're working. Just stay close
to Grandpa and me, alright?
Storyteller: Caillou was a little scared. But he felt safe because he was staying right by his
grandpa and daddy. Caillou loved to watch people working.
Grandpa: Hello! Let me give you a hand there! See you later.
Daddy: Hi, Sam, This is my son, Caillou.
Sam: Pleased to meet you, Caillou. Say, I could use some of those nails, I just ran out.
Caillou: Oh, Here you go.
Sam: Thank you; I just need a couple to finish this wall. Then we can put it up.
Storyteller: Caillou didn't think this looked much like a wall at all.
Daddy: Wanna help, Caillou?
Caillou: Uh-huh.
Daddy: Count to three for us, so we'll all lift at the same time.
Caillou: One, Two, Three, lift!
Caillou: Wow! It is a wall...with lots of holes.
Sam: We'll fix that real soon, with everybodys helping our house will be finished in no
time.
Daddy: Sam's family is going to live in this house when it's done. That's his son right over
there. Why don't you see if he wants to play?
Caillou: Hi, I'm Caillou!
Frankie: I'm Frankie!
Frankie: Wanna help?
Storyteller: Caillou was very proud that he could help. He felt like a real house builder.
Daddy: Caillou, Caillou! I think we've got enough gravel for the moment. Thanks for all your
hard work.

324
Caillou: Is this really gonna be your house?
Frankie: Yep, we live in an apartment now, but when the house is ready I'm gonna have my
very own room, wanna see it?
Caillou: Daddy, can I go look at Frankie's new room? Please.
Daddy: Sure, but I'll come with you. Remember, we have to be careful around here.
Frankie: This is it, my room. Yippee!!
Caillou: It's big!
Frankie: This is going to be my window; I could see the whole street from here.
Daddy: This is going to be a great room, Frankie.
Caillou: Mommy's here!
Daddy: You know what that means.
Daddy&Caillou: Lunch time!
Frankie: Thank you.
Frankie: Jam! That's my favourite!
Caillou: Mine, too!
Storyteller: Caillou liked his new friend Frankie.
Caillou: It looks wet.
Frankie: It's soft, too. Look!
Grandpa: Well, what do we have here? I've got an idea. You are both helping to build this
house, so why don't you leave your mark? How about a handprint?
Mommy: Ok, Caillou. It's time to go.
Caillou: Look, mommy, I left my mark.
Frankie: Bye, Caillou. Come and visit me in my new house when it's done.
Caillou: Ok, Bye.
Storyteller: Caillou couldn't wait to see Rosie and grandma and tell them all about his great
building adventure.

237. Working Together

Caillou: Hey, Leo, Do you wanna help me build a castle?
Leo: Sure, Caillou.
(singing :

Caillou&Leo: Working together we can build anything like a real big

castle that is fit for a king.
Caillou: If we take our time and work as one.
Leo: we'll go step by step till we get the job done.
Caillou&Leo: We need the right equipment, we need the right clothes.
Caillou: A tractor to move things.
Leo: And a truck to bulldoze.
Caillou: Let's draw up a plan then clear the site.
Leo: We can move these trees to the left or the right.
Caillou: Let's use our shovels and start to dig.
Leo: 'Cause we want our castle to be very big.

325
Caillou&Leo: Let's build it high up to the sky.
Caillou: And keep out the water.
Leo: So our castle is dry.
Caillou: Now I hear there's a dragon so we must build a gate.
Caillou:So make sure you measure, make sure that it's straight.
Leo: Now we're almost done, let's close the door.
Caillou: Shhh...Quiet,I think I hear a roar. Everybody run it's the dragon!
Caillou&Leo: Working together we can build anything!

238. A House in the Sky

Storyteller: It was a beautiful summer day, And Caillou the explorer had found an ant hill.
Caillou: Rosie,come see what I found.
Caillou: Don't be scared, Rosie.
Rosie: Daddy.
Caillou: They are just little ants. Ants can't hurt you, can they, daddy?
Daddy: Well, some ants bite. But the ants we have here don't, they're perfectly safe.
Upsydaisy, wee.
Storyteller: Caillou wondered what it would be like to be really really small like an ant.
Caillou: Yuppie, Ha.
Mommy : I 'll get it. Hello, Yes, it is. Who's this, really? It's so nice to hear your voice again.
Well, how've you been?

hes four.
Caillou: I'm four, too. Can I come with you, mommy?
Mommy: Of course, You can. But It's a long car ride. You'll have to bring some books to
look at.
Storyteller: It was a very very long trip.
Caillou: Are we there yet, mommy?
Mommy: No, Caillou. But we are getting close.
Storyteller: Caillou knew he should be patient and wait. But he was starting to think they
would never get there.
Caillou: Are we there yet?
Mommy: No.
Caillou: Are we there yet?
Mommy: No.
Storyteller: Caillou was bored.
Caillou: Are we there yet?

Kevin's house, mommy?
Mommy: Kevin lives in this apartment building. Way way up on the seventeenth floor.
Caillou: Wow.
Mommy: Tall buildings like this are called skyscrapers, Caillou. Can you guess why?
Caillou: Because they go so high up they scrape the sky.
Mommy: Right. Would you like to go up and meet Kevin now?
Storyteller: Caillou had never met anyone who lived in the sky before. He could hardly wait
to go inside.
Mommy: Thank you!
Caillou: Thank you!
The guard: You're welcome.
Caillou: Can I press the button?
Mommy: We're going to seventeen .One, Seven.
Caillou: Mommy, My tummy feels funny. Bye, thanks for the ride.
Caillou: Why are there so many doors?
Mommy: Each door leads to a different apartment where a different family lives.
Caillou: How does Kevin know which one is his door?
Mommy: Each door has a number on it, see, Kevin lives at number ten.
Caillou: Oh, 8...9...Here it is. Number 10!
Carol: Well, hello there!
Mommy: Carol, so good to see you. And this must be Kevin.
Mommy: Hi, Kevin. This is Caillou.
Kevin: Hi. Wants to see my room?
Caillou: Ok. Can we go play in your backyard?
Kevin: I don't have a backyard. But I have a park that I go to everyday.
Caillou: Me, too. With swings and a big slide.
Kevin: Do you want to see my park?
Caillou: Yah. Can I press the buttons in the elevator?
Storyteller: Caillou didn't know what Kevin was doing. He thought he was going to show
him the park, Caillou couldn't belive his eyes. He had never seen
a view like this before.
Caillou: Wow.
Storyteller: Everything looked so small.
Kevin: See over there. That's my park.
Caillou: Were up in the sky with the birds. Look, you have ants in your backyard, too.
Storyteller: Caillou thought the people down below looked like little ants, just like the ones
in his backyard.
Caillou: Im making a skyscraper that goes all the way up to the clouds.
Kevin: can I help?
Caillou: Yep.
Mommy: Ok, Caillou, time to go home. My goodness, you two have been busy.
Caillou: We made a skyscraper, mommy. See.

Mommy: It's very impressive.
Caillou: Can Kevin come and play at our house someday.
Mommy: Of course. Kevin and his mom can come for a visit any time.
Caillou: When you come, be sure to bring lots of books for the car ride because It's a long
long way away.
Caillou: Bye.
Mommy: Did you and Kevin have fun?
Caillou: Uh-huh, Kevin's home sure is different from ours, isn't it, mommy?
Mommy: Yes, It is. But I bet you and Kevin still have a lot of things in common.
Caillou: We're sure do. We both have ants in our backyards.
Mommy: Ants?
