  • How do you do? I'm Caillou.

  • Caillou was at the supermarket with Mommy.

  • Mommy, can you carry me, please?

  • Caillou, you're a big boy. You can walk by yourself.

  • But I don't feel very well.

  • Caillou started to cry. He wasn't feeling very well.

  • Oh, your forehead is very hot. You might have a fever.

  • Caillou snuggled up to his Mommy.

  • Hmm. Come on, let's go home and check your temperature.

  • Caillou was not feeling very well. He had the flu.

  • How do you feel, Caillou?

  • My throat hurts.

  • I think we may need to go visit the doctor.

  • No! I don't want to go to the doctor, Mommy!

  • It's always best to visit the doctor when you're ill.

  • They'll make you feel better in no time.

  • Hello there, Caillou.

  • Caillou wanted to stay near Mommy. He was still a little bit scared.

  • So, a little birdie told me you're not feeling so good.

  • Well, I can change that. But first, I need your help.

  • You can use my stethoscope to listen to your Mommy's heartbeat.

  • Caillou had never used a stethoscope. He was amazed.

  • He could hear Mommy's heartbeat.

  • Wow!

  • Very cool, right?

  • Would you like to listen to your own heartbeat?

  • Caillou could hear his own heart. He was really amazed.

  • Now, can I listen?

  • Dr. Rose used the stethoscope to listen to Caillou's heart and lungs.

  • Caillou, I want to look inside your ears now.

  • I'm going to shine this light inside your ear to make sure everything is okay.

  • Are you ready?

  • Don't worry, Caillou. It won't hurt.

  • You can hold my hand if you like.

  • Now, I want to look at your throat to see if it's red.

  • I need you to open your mouth like this.

  • Ah!

  • Dr. Rose opened her mouth wide, but Caillou was still a bit worried.

  • Now, it's your turn.

  • Caillou opened his mouth wide and stuck his tongue out.

  • Ah!

  • Oh, dear. It looks like you have a bad cold, Caillou.

  • Caillou cuddled up to Mommy. He didn't like having a cold.

  • Your Mommy has done a good job taking care of you.

  • Now, you need to rest some more and take this medicine.

  • You'll get better in no time.

  • The next day, Caillou was starting to feel better.

  • Dr. Rose took Caillou to the hospital.

  • The next day, Caillou was starting to feel a bit better.

  • Mommy brought Caillou a glass of water.

  • But I'm not thirsty.

  • It's important to drink lots of water when you're sick.

  • Are you feeling a bit better now?

  • Let's check your temperature.

  • Oh, Mommy!

  • Caillou, you have to sit still, dear.

  • Caillou couldn't sit still. He wanted to play with his toys.

  • Looks like you're getting a lot better.

  • Caillou wanted to play doctor with his teddy.

  • He pretended to check Teddy's temperature.

  • How is Teddy feeling, Caillou?

  • He's a bit ill, Mommy.

  • I'm going to have to stay here and make sure he gets better.

  • Good idea, Caillou. That's very kind of you.

  • Caillou loved playing doctor with his teddy.

  • He was happy to stay home and make sure Teddy got better.

  • Caillou and Leo were having lots of fun playing in the park together.

  • Leo brought along his favorite green truck to show Caillou.

  • Wow, Leo! Your truck is so cool!

  • I'll bring my red one tomorrow and we can race!

  • Okay, but mine will be the fastest. We'll see about that.

  • Time to go now, Caillou.

  • But I don't want to go yet. We're playing with Leo's truck.

  • We'll be back tomorrow. You can finish your game then.

  • Fine. See you tomorrow, Leo. Bye, Caillou.

  • The next day, Caillou was very excited to play trucks with Leo at the park.

  • He jumped out of bed and got ready as fast as he could.

  • Mommy!

  • Caillou was covered in tiny red spots.

  • He didn't know what they were, but they were very itchy.

  • Mommy!

  • Oh, dear. It looks like you have chicken pox.

  • Chicken pox?

  • Just little itchy spots. Nothing to worry about.

  • But you must remember not to scratch them or they'll get worse.

  • I'll run you a nice bath and then you won't feel so itchy.

  • While Mommy ran the bath, Caillou stood looking at himself in the mirror.

  • He tried to count how many tiny red spots he had.

  • Your bath is ready, Caillou.

  • Caillou knew he shouldn't scratch, but he couldn't help it.

  • Caillou, no scratching!

  • But I'm so itchy, Mommy!

  • If you don't scratch and you take lots of baths, your spots will disappear faster.

  • Caillou didn't feel as itchy in the bath, and playing with Ducky helped him forget all about it.

  • Quack! Quack!

  • How are you doing in there, Caillou?

  • I think I'm ready to get out and go play with Leo now. I'm not itchy anymore.

  • I'm sorry, you can't go out and play today, Caillou.

  • You are sick. You need to stay home and rest.

  • Caillou was very sad he wouldn't be able to go play trucks with Leo.

  • After all, he didn't feel itchy anymore.

  • You can't see Leo until your spots have cleared up.

  • Otherwise, you'll make Leo sick, too.

  • Caillou didn't want to make Leo sick, so he listened to Mommy and went back to bed.

  • Caillou was getting bored of waiting for his spots to go away.

  • He found it very hard not to scratch. They were just so itchy.

  • Caillou, are you scratching?

  • I can't help it, Mommy! They're so itchy!

  • I have some special cream that might help.

  • Mommy, that tickles!

  • Once Mommy was done, she pulled out a sheet of stickers.

  • What are those stickers for?

  • It's a surprise.

  • Mommy put the red dots on Caillou's dinosaur.

  • My dinosaur has chicken pox, too!

  • Soon me and dinosaur are going to feel much better.

  • The next morning, Caillou looked at himself in the mirror.

  • His spots were finally fading.

  • Mommy, come see!

  • That's great, Caillou. You're almost all better.

  • Caillou showed Mommy that his dinosaur had fewer spots, too.

  • Can me and dinosaur go play outside?

  • Of course, Mommy!

  • Caillou looked at himself in the mirror.

  • His spots were finally fading.

  • Can me and dinosaur go play outside now?

  • I want to show Leo my truck!

  • Not yet, Caillou.

  • You'll have to wait until the chicken pox are completely gone.

  • The next day, all Caillou's spots had disappeared.

  • He picked up his dinosaur and his truck and ran to tell everyone the good news.

  • Mommy! Daddy! Look!

  • Ta-da!

  • I see you and your dinosaur's spots are all gone!

  • Yup! Can I go out and play now?

  • Yes, Caillou. You can go after breakfast.

  • Can you go wake Rosie for me?

  • Rosie, guess what?

  • My spots have all gone, so we're going to the pa...

  • Now poor Rosie's face was covered in spots.

  • Chicken spots!

  • Mommy, come quick!

  • Caillou knew just what had happened to Rosie.

  • Look, Mommy. Now Rosie has chicken pox.

  • Don't worry, Rosie. I'll look after you.

  • Don't you want to go to the park to play trucks with Leo?

  • Not today. Dr. Caillou needs to look after Rosie.

  • Here. If you take lots of baths and don't scratch, you'll lose all your spots, just like me and my dinosaur.

  • Rosie knew she'd feel better in no time with Dr. Caillou looking after her.

  • Caillou and his family were on their way to Uncle Felix's farm.

  • Caillou was very excited.

  • I can't wait to see all the farm animals.

  • Uncle Felix!

  • Caillou gave Uncle Felix a big hug. He was very happy to see him.

  • Howdy, Caillou. Great to finally have you all down on the farm.

  • You ready to see some animals?

  • I can't wait!

  • Caillou was very excited.

  • I can't wait to see all the farm animals.

  • There were lots of cute, fluffy sheep in the barn.

  • Do you know what sound a sheep makes, Caillou?

  • Baa! Baa! Baa!

  • That's right!

  • Uncle Felix and Caillou gave the sheep some grain to eat.

  • That one's so small! Can I touch it?

  • Of course, Caillou, but be careful.

  • It's only a baby.

  • Wow! It's so soft!

  • Next, Caillou saw some cows in the field outside the barn.

  • The cow's nose is wet!

  • Where are all the horses, Uncle Felix?

  • I want to be a cowboy!

  • Uncle Felix walked into the field and whistled.

  • Right away, a horse galloped up to them.

  • This is Harry.

  • Harry the horse! Can I ride him? Please?

  • Caillou had never ridden a horse before.

  • He jumped around pretending to be a horse.

  • Whee!

  • Sure you can, buddy.

  • Perched safely on the horse, Caillou felt like a cowboy as Uncle Felix led him and Harry around the field.

  • Yee-haw!

  • Caillou galloped up to the barn.

  • He was still having fun pretending to be a horse.

  • That was such a fun ride!

  • I really like Harry the horse!

  • Caillou heard a funny noise.

  • He wasn't sure what it was.

  • What was that?

  • A mommy pig!

  • Look at all the babies!

  • The pigs were bathing in the mud.

  • Caillou went in to have a closer look.

  • This is so much fun!

  • As Caillou watched, Uncle Felix drove his red tractor.

  • He was sad that he wasn't allowed to try.

  • Why can't I drive the tractor, Mommy?

  • Only grown-up farmers like Uncle Felix can drive tractors, Caillou.

  • Mommy had no choice.

  • You can drive tractors, Caillou.

  • Mommy had an idea to cheer Caillou up.

  • She pulled his favorite red tractor out of her handbag and handed it to him.

  • Here you go, Caillou.

  • It looks just like Uncle Felix's!

  • Wow! Your tractor looks just like mine!

  • You'll be a farmer in no time!

  • Yippee!

  • In the barnyard, Caillou saw some chickens.

  • He tried to catch them.

  • Caillou liked watching the chickens.

  • They pecked at the ground with their pointy beaks.

  • One of them swallowed a worm.

  • Yuck!

  • Want to check the henhouse, Caillou?

  • Maybe the hen laid some eggs.

  • Ta-da!

  • Wow, Caillou! Excellent job!

  • You're a great farmer!

  • Caillou had lots of fun at the farm with Uncle Felix.

  • He couldn't wait to come back and see all his animal friends again.

  • Today, Caillou and his mommy were going to do some gardening.

  • What are you looking at, Caillou?

  • There's a caterpillar!

  • It's eating a lot of that big leaf, Mommy!

  • And it's only a tiny caterpillar!

  • Well, it's a tiny caterpillar now, but soon it will be a big, strong butterfly.

  • First, it needs to eat as much as it can.

  • Caillou looked closely at the caterpillar, but it was so tiny, he didn't understand how it could possibly turn into a butterfly.

  • What are you doing, Caillou?

  • Caillou's friend Sarah was peeking at him through a gap in the garden fence.

  • I'm trying to look at this tiny caterpillar, but it's too small.

  • We can use my magnifying glass.

  • What's that?

  • A magnifying glass is something you use to make something small look big.

  • Caillou looked through the magnifying glass and laughed.

  • It made Sarah's face look much bigger.

  • Caillou liked seeing the caterpillar through the magnifying glass.

  • He could see all its tiny legs moving.

  • I have an idea! Let's play Jungle Explorer!

  • Caillou thought this was a great idea.

  • He got down on his hands and knees and started exploring.

  • Wow! A great big jungle monster!

  • Caillou looked at the huge butterfly. It was so colorful.

  • It's as big as a bird. It must have eaten lots and lots of leaves.

  • Caillou wanted to keep looking at the butterfly, but it flew away.

  • Come back here, butterfly!

  • The jungle is much thicker there. You can't get through it, Caillou.

  • If I can't get through it, I'll go under it.

  • Caillou bent down as low as he could and crawled deeper into the garden.

  • Caillou saw the butterfly again in the distance.

  • It was on top of a ferocious lion who was sleeping soundly.

  • I have to be careful not to wake up the sleeping lion.

  • Oh no!

  • The lion woke up with a roar and scared away the butterfly, which flew off deeper into the jungle.

  • I've got you now, butterfly!

  • The loud rumbling in the sky startled Caillou, and it startled the butterfly, too.

  • What was that?

  • Caillou was scared.

  • Caillou was scared.

  • Caillou was scared.

  • Caillou was scared.

  • Caillou was scared.

  • What was that?

  • Caillou was very frightened and ran back out of the jungle as fast as he could.

  • Sarah! Sarah!

  • Mommy! Sarah! Did you hear that loud noise?

  • Don't worry, Caillou. It was just thunder.

  • That means it's going to rain soon.

  • But it scared away my butterfly.

  • That's okay, Caillou.

  • Look! The caterpillar from this morning has made a cocoon.

  • Mommy showed Caillou a jar with a cocoon inside.

  • Caillou used the magnifying glass to see it up close.

  • What's a cocoon, Mommy?

  • When a caterpillar makes a cocoon, it means it's turning into a butterfly.

  • Wow! Soon I'll have a butterfly of my very own!

  • Wow, Caillou! That's so cool!

  • Caillou had lots of fun exploring the jungle and looking for butterflies.

  • He couldn't wait for the cocoon to hatch so he could play again.

  • Caillou's family was on their way to buy groceries.

  • But Daddy drove right past the grocery store.

  • Caillou was confused.

  • Daddy! You missed the store!

  • We're not going to the store today, Caillou.

  • We're going to go somewhere called a farmer's market.

  • What's a farmer's market, Daddy?

  • It's a place where farmers bring all the things that they grow.

  • Can we buy food there?

  • Yes, lots and lots of food, Caillou.

  • When they arrived, Caillou saw the farmer's market was very different from the grocery store.

  • All of the food was placed on tables with a farmer behind each stall.

  • Where did all this food come from, Daddy?

  • The farmers grow the food at their farms and bring them straight here.

  • It's very fresh.

  • Caillou looked for bananas, but he couldn't see them anywhere.

  • Mommy, where are the bananas?

  • Well, Caillou, all of this food is grown nearby, but bananas only come from very far away.

  • Bananas don't grow here?

  • No, the bananas come from so far away that they need a plane to get all the way to the grocery store.

  • Caillou liked thinking about bananas flying in a plane.

  • Then, Caillou remembered something.

  • Strawberries can grow close to here?

  • I've seen Grandma grow them in her garden.

  • That's right, Caillou.

  • But I don't see any strawberries.

  • That's because it's spring.

  • You can't eat strawberries until they're ripe, and they won't be ready until the summertime.

  • There were more than just fruits and vegetables at the farmer's market.

  • They walked past a cheese stand with lots of smelly cheeses.

  • Caillou tried some that was made from goat's milk instead of cow's milk.

  • He thought it tasted funny.

  • Blech!

  • If there's goat's milk, that must mean there's goats nearby, too!

  • I think there's one right over there, Caillou.

  • Caillou had never been this close to a goat before.

  • The farmer even let him feed the goat straight from his hand.

  • Is that lady a farmer, too?

  • Her hat looks silly!

  • She's a different kind of farmer.

  • She raises bees and sells their honey.

  • That hat stops her from getting stung by the bees.

  • Caillou tried some of the honey on a stick.

  • It was delicious!

  • The farmer was so nice, she let Caillou try on her hat.

  • How do I look, Rosie? Funny!

  • At another table, Caillou saw some long, skinny vegetables.

  • Mommy, what are those?

  • Those are asparagus. It's a vegetable.

  • As-pa-ra-gus. That's a funny name.

  • Caillou liked the word so much, he said it over and over.

  • Asparagus!

  • Why don't we buy some?

  • I have a wonderful recipe for asparagus soup.

  • But I need one more vegetable, Caillou.

  • Can you help me?

  • What about those carrots?

  • Ew! They're all covered in mud!

  • That's because they have been pulled straight from the ground this morning, Caillou, fresh from the farm.

  • At home, Caillou washed the vegetables while Mommy cut them up.

  • Then they put all the ingredients they had bought in the blender.

  • Would you like to push the button, Caillou?

  • Yes, please!

  • Ha-ha-ha!

  • At supper time, everyone had a bowl of the soup.

  • Caillou had a taste, but he wasn't sure if he liked it.

  • What do you think, Caillou?

  • It's not as good as spaghetti, but it really was fun choosing all the vegetables.

  • Well, you're going to have to finish your dinner if you want some dessert.

  • Mommy brought out bowls of ice cream drizzled with the honey from the soup.

  • Caillou thought it was the best thing he'd ever tasted.

  • Can we go back to the farmer's market again soon?

  • Yes, Caillou. The next one is in the summer, so we can see what's in season then.

  • Maybe they will have some strawberries!

  • Caillou had to get up early today to go somewhere very special.

  • Wake up, Caillou! It's time to go on an amazing adventure!

  • What kind of adventure, Daddy?

  • It's a surprise!

  • What kind of surprise?

  • I can't give away the surprise, Caillou, but it's going to be splashing!

  • Splashing?

  • Caillou heard Grandpa arriving downstairs and couldn't wait to give him a big hug.

  • Grandpa, why are you wearing that funny hat?

  • It's my very special lucky hat, Caillou. Whenever I wear it, it brings me good luck.

  • What makes it lucky?

  • You'll have to wait and see, Caillou.

  • Caillou had no idea what Grandpa's silly hat was for, but he couldn't wait to find out.

  • Are those fish? Wow! We're going fishing!

  • And you can't go fishing without your very own lucky hat!

  • Caillou was so excited. He felt like a real fisherman.

  • I'm ready! Let's go!

  • Well, hold on now. First we'll need to buy some food for the fish.

  • Caillou and Grandpa went into a store by the lake called a bait store.

  • It was full of worms and insects.

  • You can buy bugs, Grandpa?

  • Fish love to eat bugs. They go on the fishing line and the fish will swim right over to us.

  • Daddy came back with a bucket full of wiggly worms. Caillou was very surprised.

  • Ew! Worms?

  • Fish love to eat earthworms. It's like peanut butter and jelly to them.

  • The fishermen waited patiently to catch some fish, but Caillou had a hard time staying awake.

  • It was still very early in the morning.

  • When are the fish going to come and eat? Aren't they hungry?

  • Shhh! We have to be very quiet. If we make any noise, we'll scare the fish away.

  • Caillou tried his best to be quiet.

  • He heard water flowing and the whirr of a fishing reel from the fishermen next to them.

  • Look over there! That man caught a fish!

  • Why did he throw the fish back in the water, Daddy?

  • That fish was too small. It wasn't ready to be caught yet.

  • He threw it back so it can grow bigger first.

  • Caillou was getting tired of waiting and having to stay still.

  • Why haven't we caught anything yet, Daddy? Where are all the fish?

  • When you go fishing, you have to be very patient, like Grandpa.

  • Like Grandpa? He has a lot of experience.

  • Caillou and Daddy looked at Grandpa. He had fallen asleep.

  • Why don't we take a break too?

  • Daddy and Caillou went to see the fishing boats.

  • The fishermen were unloading big crates of fish.

  • What are the fishermen going to do with all those fish?

  • They'll sell them to the grocery store, then people buy them to eat.

  • Caillou really wanted to take a fish home.

  • If we catch a fish, we could have it for dinner. Can we try again?

  • Sure we can, Caillou.

  • Caillou was very determined to catch a fish now.

  • He stayed as still as he could and waited very patiently.

  • You're doing a great job, Caillou.

  • Shh, Daddy! You'll scare the fish away.

  • Suddenly, Caillou felt a tug on his fishing line.

  • Daddy, I've got one!

  • Quick! Reel it in! Reel it in!

  • Caillou reeled in his line.

  • There was a little fish wriggling on the hook, but it fell back into the water.

  • Oh, no! But I waited and waited!

  • Don't worry, Caillou. You'll have better luck next time.

  • You just have to keep practicing.

  • Caillou was happy that he had gone fishing, even if he hadn't caught anything to bring home.

  • All this fresh air has made me hungry.

  • But we still didn't catch anything.

  • Grandpa had an idea.

  • I know where there are always lots of fish.

  • There's my little fisherman.

  • Wow! That's such a big fish, Caillou. Well done! Where did you catch it?

  • Caillou couldn't stop laughing.

  • We caught it at the fish store!

  • Today was Caillou's birthday.

  • Mommy and Daddy decorated the house.

  • The balloons looked so colorful.

  • Caillou was so excited he couldn't wait.

  • He was putting on his favorite shirt.

  • His friends were coming to celebrate with him and his family.

  • Ta-da!

  • What's wrong, Caillou?

  • When will Leo and Clementine be here? I don't want them to miss the party.

  • Don't worry. They'll be here soon, Caillou.

  • Caillou and his family were in the living room.

  • Caillou decided he wanted to open Grandma's present first.

  • He had told everyone that he wanted a dinosaur for his birthday.

  • He opened the big box, hoping Grandma's gift would be the dinosaur he wanted.

  • But instead, she had knitted him a sweater.

  • A sweater?

  • Caillou, I told you the presents are for later.

  • What do you say?

  • Thank you, Grandma.

  • You're welcome, Caillou.

  • Suddenly, the doorbell rang and Caillou ran to open it.

  • Who could it be?

  • Clementine! Leo!

  • Caillou was so happy that his friends had finally arrived.

  • Happy birthday, Caillou!

  • Everyone was having so much fun at the party.

  • Clementine and Leo were dancing, but Caillou was more interested in the gifts that they had brought for him.

  • Can we open presents now, Mommy?

  • No, Caillou. It's time to play some games.

  • Everyone had lots of fun playing different party games.

  • Leo was great at pinning the tail on the donkey.

  • Clementine had the winning hit on the pinata.

  • Rosie won past the parcel.

  • Caillou was having fun with his friends, but felt sad he hadn't gotten to open the rest of his presents yet.

  • Who wants their face painted?

  • Daddy looked silly with a tiger painted on his face.

  • Me, Daddy! I know exactly what I want to be!

  • Stay still just a little longer, Caillou. I'm almost done.

  • It tickles, Daddy!

  • Caillou giggled at the tickly feeling of the brush on his cheeks.

  • He was very curious to see how it was going to look.

  • All done!

  • Caillou went to the mirror to see.

  • He was very impressed.

  • He looked just like Gilbert.

  • Thanks, Daddy!

  • Look, Gilbert! Now I'm a cat too!

  • Meow!

  • Everyone was in the kitchen enjoying all of the delicious treats on the table, but there was something missing.

  • Is everything okay, Caillou?

  • When is my cake coming, Daddy?

  • I want to blow out my candles.

  • Why don't you ask Mommy?

  • Mommy walked through the door with Caillou's birthday cake.

  • It was the most colorful cake Caillou had ever seen.

  • Rainbow!

  • Happy birthday, Caillou!

  • Caillou couldn't wait to blow out his candles.

  • Don't forget to make a wish!

  • Caillou knew exactly what to wish for.

  • A new dinosaur!

  • He took a deep breath and blew out the candles with all his might.

  • Everyone was enjoying Caillou's special rainbow cake.

  • Are you ready to open your present for me and Daddy, Caillou?

  • Yay!

  • Caillou unwrapped the box as fast as he could.

  • Wow! My dinosaur!

  • Thank you, Mommy and Daddy!

  • Rosie! Oh no! Look what you've done!

  • It's okay, Caillou. Rosie didn't do it on purpose.

  • You can just put on your new sweater.

  • Grandma held up Caillou's new sweater, and it had an amazing dinosaur on the front.

  • My new sweater is so cool!

  • It looks just like my toy!

  • Thank you, Grandma!

  • Caillou thought this was the best birthday ever.

  • The End

How do you do? I'm Caillou.
