Caillou

The Starry Night (#112)

Things that go bump in the night, and others that light up the sky, are on everyone's mind today. A family corn-roast dinner at Grandma and Grandpa's under the star-studded sky prompts Grandpa to bring out his telescope and introduce Caillou to the constellations, planets and moon. But fun turns to fear at bedtime when Caillou decides that a monster is lurking in his room. Maybe he's picked up the puppets' jitters; their own night under the stars convinces Rexy that a monster's hovering over them! All's well when Mom and Dad unmask Caillou's monster as a tree branch on the window, and Rexy's one-eyed monster turns out to be the shimmering moon!

Program Description: Growing up is not so tough - especially with a friend like Caillou (pronounced KY-YOO), a lovable four-year-old who has a unique way of relating to the world. Based on a series of best-selling Canadian children's books, CAILLOU demonstrates how the first experiences of life, from going to the park to understanding one's own family, can be perceived with wonder and a sense of discovery. Blending animation and live-action segments with humor, kid logic and imagination, Caillou helps preschoolers make sense of the world. The stories address real problems and conflicts typical to a young child's development. Through it all, Caillou remains an irresistible little boy in a very big world, with whom every young child and parent can identify.
