"I'm just a kid who's four, Each day I grow some more! I like exploring, I'm Caillou."
Caillou is a unique preschool show that presents family and friend life-like situations and settings. The stories are age appropriate and help children grow with self-esteem, confidence and independence.
It's hard to believe, but Caillou will celebrate its 25th anniversary in 2015! The award-winning brand began as book series. Caillou has consistently ranked as one of the top 10 television series for preschoolers nationwide since its premiere in 2000. Caillou is about an inquisitive four year old whose unique way of relating to the world has charmed generations of preschoolers who connect with how he plays, learns and lives.
The brand new Caillou Talking Doll is the first licensed product to hit shelves as the Caillou brand leads into its 25th anniversary and celebrates 15 years on the air on PBS. “Caillou,” the animated preschool series, airs in the U.S. on PBS Kids, the #1 preschool destination for kids and parents, on PBS Sprout and in several major international territories. Caillou has won multiple awards, including two Parent’s Choice Awards, in consecutive years.
Geared especially for children ages 2-5, the doll has a fresh new look for the character, with bright new school gear including a removable backpack and hat. But what children will likely find most appealing is that they can interact with Caillou simply by pressing on his belly - there are 10 educational interactions meant to spark children's creativity. Review primary colors and counting, talk about the seasons, and even learn a couple of works in French! It's also nice to find a doll that little boys can love. Take a break from the superhero toys and let your preschool-aged child enjoy playtime with Caillou!
