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.

... 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.

I love the Caillou series in general. Caillou acts just like a four year old boy. I don't find him whiney, as other reviewers have said. What I do like is that the parents are portrayed as very patient. Sometimes Caillou does misbehave, but really, what parent can say that their four year old son is an angel all the time? The parents always deal with him fairly and patiently.

My two year old son loves it, but sometimes I feel it might be just a bit too complicated for him, but he does seem to get the general idea. I feel it's a pretty good video.

Caillou is a little boy inspired by the events that he is exposed to throughout each day. He is curious and willing to learn and try what life may present to him. He explores....which teaches science....and what parent doesn't want their child to explore? Caillou is an above average boy with a great spirit for learning! Yes, he does have temper tantrums from time to time; he fusses and whines from time to time as well. Do you know of any four year old children that NEVER do any of these things? I would worry tremendously if my child didn't! Just because Caillou "acts up" on occasion doesn't mean that your child will model his behavior. This might be the perfect opportunity for you to discuss behavioral issues with your child and think about alternative ways to solve a problem or lower their frustration level. Anyway, have you ever watched "THE NANNY"? Now, THOSE are real behavior problems!!!!!!!

I received this video as a gift (?? before the release date??). My son (3 yrs) loved it! He wants to watch it over and over and over..... Highly recommend!

I whole heartedly agree with "a viewer." I used to let my child watch the show until she started whining and acting like Caillou.

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.

My two year old loves watching Caillou and his adventures.

I cannot believe that anyone would let their child watch a Caillou video! All he does is whine and cry the whole time. If something doesn't go his way, he cries and throws a fit. There are far better characters out there for children thatn Caillou. Save your money and get something else.

I have let my daughter watch this, but I always say things to her like "I'm glad you don't act like that". He is the biggest brat on tv, whiney and short-tempered.
