Product Description Welcome to the world of Caillou (Ky-yoo) where every day is an adventure filled with fun, laughter and surprises! From his own back yard to his very fist airplane ride, Caillou learns about the world around him one step at a time. There's a whole world for Caillou to explore! Come along as Caillou learns about trains and boats, visits a farm and leans to eat with chopsticks! .com Caillou (pronounced KY-yoo) is a PBS animated series about a 4-year-old boy who's facing the challenges of growing up while gleaning an understanding of the world around him. The series features simple, colorful animation interspersed with puppetry, songs, and real children. A narrator describes Caillou's thoughts and feelings, helping kids and parents understand the motivations behind Caillou's actions. What makes the series so effective is that Caillou's actions and feelings are incredibly realistic and universal--Caillou is reality TV for young children. Caillou the Explorer contains two episodes. In the first episode, Caillou and his grandfather spend a day refurbishing an old toy boat; Gilbert, Teddy, and Rexi (puppets) explore various modes of transportation; and Caillou takes his first train trip. In the second episode, Caillou spends a day on a working farm, the puppets create some special culinary treats to share with each other, and Caillou gets his first taste of Chinese cuisine at a friend's house. These new situations inspire jealousy, awe, fear, embarrassment, and pride within Caillou. Most importantly, each experience helps Caillou grow as a person and furthers his understanding of the world. (Ages 2 to 6) --Tami Horiuchi

My 2 year old loves this video
It is beyond the antics of a 4 year old boy that gets my sons attention. It is colorful, imaginative, sweet, and very real. Caillou has a younger sister and there is much interaction between the two. He gets to explore new places and he shows how his excitment can also lead to some fear of the "new" adventure. It teaches that feelings and emotions of fear, joy, etc. are okay and also that you can get over fear to accept new things in his life.A very rewarding video for children of all ages and gender.

Annoying, Self-Centered, Bald Pain in the Neck
If this is what you want for your kids, knock yourself out. If they don't whine and complain incessantly now they sure will after a few viewings. Caillou(even his name is irritating) also consistently defies the wishes of his parents and is very disobedient. Great message for young children.

Kids will be kids
The stories are similar to other Caillou. The parents are perfect, the kids almost never cries, the cat is always friendly and the grand-mother is super patient... But my daughter loved it... Hey well. I'll give 4 stars, and go back to watch Caillou... Have fun with your kids.

Not for children?!?
... This is such a positive show for kids in the 4 year old range. Caillou is a wonderful child, with normal tendencies, and loving, guiding parents. I would highly recommend this video, and all other Caillou videos/shows in the series, to anyone... Especially those with children around age 4.

Mixed Emotions
This series could be so much better than it is - I have to say Caillou is pretty whiney. Also - why does he have no hair? He looks like one of those poor kids w/cancer. Also - lastly, what kind of name is Caillou?? Anyway, my little three-year old loves Caillou but i wish they would make him less WHINEY. I love that everything (including the kitchen sink) is in primary colors.

Very Realistic, Colorful
This video is about a 4 year old boy and his family and friends. I watch the series as often as I get to. So do my cousins (age 5). It helps us all solve problems in the real world.

等身大
主人公のカイユウ（と聞こえます）の普段の生活について描かれたこの作品は現在3歳半の娘の生活にかなり近い世界だと思い購入しました。はじめて寝台列車に乗ることに興奮するカイユウ。ワーオ！！こんなの始めてみたよ。お父さん。すごいね！！みたいな、この年代の子供の普段の自然な表現の宝庫といえるでしょう。まさに等身大でした。アニメ以外に実写のパペットのシーンがあったりと様々に工夫された内容だと思いますが、ややかしこくまとまりすぎているように感じました。ウィットやユーモアが盛り込まれているものに興味を示す年代かそれとも性格か、ちょっと我が娘にはまとも？すぎる内容だったようです。時がたてばもうちょっと興味を示すかな～？？

子供が釘付けです！
うちの2歳の息子が毎日のように見たがります。絵の動きもゆっくりなのであまり疲れないし、ナレーションが入っているので動く絵本のような感じでしょうか。CAILLOUが出てくるお話（4本）とパペットが出てくる部分と子供たちが歌を歌う部分にわかれてますが、息子はCAILLOUが出てくると釘付けです。このビデオはCAILLOUがおじいちゃんとおもちゃの船を作るお話と、休暇に家族で列車に乗るお話、おじさんと農場に遊びに行くお話、中国人のお友達の家でお箸を使って食事をするお話が入ってます。
