CAILLOU LEARNS TO SHARE on DVD




The people he loves always turns out better in the end. From taking turns at playing conductor with his friends and family after a musician visits his school, to sharing his favorite things with little sister Rosie even after she accidentally scratches his bicycle, Caillou learns that sharing not only makes him feel good, it makes those around him feel good too!

CAILLOU LEARNS TO SHARE” will be available on DVD January 19, 2016. The DVD run time is approximately 60 minutes and its SRP is $12.99. The stories included on the DVD are listed below.

That’s Mine!
Caillou learns that accidents happen sometimes. When Rosie accidentally scratches Caillou’s bike, he’s determined to take back all of his toys and keep their things separate…until he accidentally breaks Daddy’s guitar string. After breaking the guitar string and talking with Daddy, Caillou forgives Rosie and decides to share his toys once again.

Copycat Clementine
Clementine is being a copycat – and Caillou doesn’t like it. When Clementine copies his artwork at preschool, Caillou thinks this is the last straw…until Clementine admits she’s copying him because she really likes his artwork! With help from Miss Martin, Caillou realizes this is a compliment and he feels much better about Clementine’s copycat ways.

Caillou’s Poster
Caillou is excited about the opportunity to draw a poster for his friend Ted, at the grocery store. When Caillou gets his friends to help him with the poster, but doesn’t share the credit, Leo is upset. Caillou realizes he needs to make things right – and he has the perfect solution: he includes his friends in a photo shoot with their collective “masterpiece.”

Playhouse Play Date
Caillou and Sarah work together to decorate Caillou’s new playhouse. They even plan a playhouse play date for all of their friends! When the big day arrives – and Sarah is sick – Caillou decides to go ahead with the party…but soon realizes it isn’t the same without Sarah, especially since she contributed so much.

Caillou Conducts
The preschool has a visitor – Liz, a musician. She shows the kids all sorts of instruments and Caillou is excited when he’s chosen to be the orchestra’s conductor. In fact, he’s so excited, he can’t stop conducting those around him – at preschool and even at home! When Caillou refuses to share his conductor’s baton he soon learns how easy it is to hurt other’s feelings – and how it feels better to give others a turn.

Caillou’s Song
Caillou wants to learn to play a song on his little keyboard…only Rosie won’t leave him alone. She keeps distracting him, trying to chime in with her drum, and pots and pans, and silly singing. When Caillou sees his sister playing on a pretend keyboard – just like Caillou – he decides to let Rosie join in his music fun.

Where’s Caillou?
Caillou wants someone to play with, but he doesn’t want to play dollies with Rosie…again! In an effort to get away from his pesky little sister, Caillou hides. As Rosie searches around the house for Caillou, her efforts soon turn into a fun game of hide-and-seek…giving both siblings something fun to do!

Lovable four-year-old Caillou has a boundless imagination that makes every experience an opportunity for fun and play. By sharing in his incredible adventures, children can “make believe” along with Caillou and find new ways to understand and enjoy the world around them. CAILLOU is designed for preschoolers and focuses on role-playing and “make-believe.” CAILLOU airs weekdays on PBS KIDS (check local listings) and is produced by DHX Media.


My Thoughts

I have four kids between the ages of four and fifteen, and they have all grown up enjoying the antics of Caillou. This DVD includes seven episodes that teach you all about sharing with friends and family. They include:

That's Mine - After his sister scratches his bike, Caillou doesn't want to share anymore and tries to separate all their things.

Copycat Clementine -  At first Caillou is annoyed when Clementine calls him every day, but eventually he learned that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. 

Caillou's Poster - Caillou and his friends make a poster, and Caillou learns to give credit were credit is due.

Playhouse Play Date - Caillou and Sarah create a beautiful playhouse, and invite their friends over to play. Things don't go as planned when Sarah is sick the day of the party.

Caillou Conducts - A musician comes to visit the school. When Caillou is made the conductor of the band, he lets it go to his head.

Caillou's Song - Caillou gets frustrated when Rosie keeps interrupting his keyboard practice.

Where's Caillou - Caillou hides from his sister because he doesn't want to play dolls.

If you have a fan of Caillou in your household, this is a DVD you'll want to have in your library.
