4.0 out of 5 stars Realistic and yet ideal, November 18, 2006

By 

DKDC (Washington, DC USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Caillou - I Want to Grow Up! [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Sure Caillou sounds like a four year old once in a while - that is, a bit "whiney." That is why my daughter loves him and why she always prefers to watch Caillou to other cartoons - he is fairly realistic with frustrations and occasional tantrums (though only two I have seen in the whole series).

That is a big part of why my daughter loves to watch Caillou - he has the same issues and joys that she does and she learns how to deal WELL with reality from this show.

That is why I like Caillou - though I have seen them all about 15 times now and hope she outgrows Caillou soon. But, this is much better than Barney and Blue's Clues, better than the Wiggles, and about as good as Angelina Ballerina. (The lineup on our movie shelf).

I avoided Caillou for a while cause of the "whiney / tantrum" reputation. I think it is unfounded.

We have all but one dvd of the series. "Caillou's Holidays" is particularly good and it and the more recent releases have no puppets - which is the one part my daughter is not wild about.
