[ Giggles ]
- Gilbert!
It's only a storm,
nothing to be
a scaredy-cat about.
- Caillou knew the noise was
just the wind blowing,
but he was still
a little afraid of the storm.
[ Rosie's crying ]
Rosie!?
Rosie? Are you okay?
- Rosie scared!
- Don't be afraid, Rosie.
[ Wind blowing ]
- Caillou knew that Rosie was a
lot more scared than he was.
He wanted to help his little
sister to not be so afraid.
- That's just the wind
blowing, Rosie.
It's going whoo-oo-woo.
Go to sleep Rosie! Whoo-oo-woo!
- Wooooo wooo woooo.
- Nighty night, Rosie.
- Nighty night, Caillou.
- Caillou was glad Rosie
felt better.
In fact, he felt better too.
He wasn't afraid of a
silly old storm!
The next day, Mommy took
Caillou to playschool.
- It looks like that was quite
a storm last night.
I slept through
the whole thing. Uh-oh.
Look, the storm blew over
that oak tree.
What a shame, it was such
a lovely old tree.
- Is it okay?
- I don't think so, Caillou.
Its roots have been
pulled up.
They'll probably plant another
tree there, though.
Trees are very special.
That corner just wouldn't look
the same without one.
- Caillou always saw that tree
on their way to playschool.
He was sad that it wouldn't
be there anymore.
- Looks like we're going to
have to make a detour.
- What's a detour?
- It means we can't take
our usual road to the playschool
today so we'll have to
go another way.
- Bye! Hi Clementine!
I saw a big tree that got
knocked down and it was lying
right on the road.
- I saw it too! The wind
blew it right over!
- Hey, Caillou! I bet these
ponies were really rocking
in the storm!
- Good morning. Last
night's storm made
a real mess of our playground,
so today we're cleaning up.
Would you like to help?
- [All ]: Okay! Yeah!
[ Laughing ]
- Look!
That bird is fixing its nest
with that stick!
- I'll leave some more here in
case the birdie needs them.
- Caillou and his friends
worked and worked,
until the playground was
all cleaned up.
- This looks much better!
Thanks for your help!
- The sand is too
piled up to play cars.
- Let's build a road!
- [Both]: Yeah!
- Let's build a road!
- I know just what we need!
I'll be right back!
I'll drive the bulldozer that
clears the way for the road.
Vroom! Vroom!
- I'll drive the truck that
pours the hot pavement
Glop gloop glop.
- And I'll drive that... that
thing with the... with the
rollie thing...
- [Miss Martin]: That was great!
- Ha! Ha!
- Thank you.
- Miss Martin?
What is the name of
that big truck that drives
over things and makes them flat?
- It's called
a steamroller, Leo.
- Steamroller! I'm driving
the steamroller!
Vrooom!
[ Various engine noises ]
- Wait! Where's our
road going to?
- To the lakes under the swings!
- Good idea!
- Great!
- Vroom! Vroom!
Vroom! Vroom!
Stop your trucks!
We can't build our road through
the river, which means...
- [Both]: We need a bridge!
- We can put two blocks
on the sides
and one block in the middle
of the river.
- Look out.
Crane coming through!
[ Laughing ]
- [Both]: Crane coming through!
Crane coming through!
- That's it.
- Lower, lower...
Perfect!
Strong enough to hold
ten elephants!
[ Trumpeting ]
- But is it strong enough to
hold... one giant foot?
- [Caillou, Clementine]: No!
- It's not that strong!
- Aw, too bad. Let's build
some more road!
[ Various engine sounds ]
- Stop! This mountain
is too steep.
We're going to have
to dig a tunnel.
- I'll start digging
on this side!
- I can see you!
- Look, it's a big old tree!
- Don't do that, Clementine.
It's right in our way!
Drive over it, Caillou.
- Caillou remembered
the big tree that was
blown down on the road,
and what his Mommy had
said about trees.
- No, we have to leave it alone.
Trees are special.
- Uh-huh. Birds live in them.
- We're going to have
to make a detour.
- What's that?
- A detour is when
you have to go
a different way
to get somewhere.
We're gonna go around the tree.
Vroom! Vroom!
We made it to the lake.
All done!
- And here's a boat for
rides on Swing Lake.
- I don't need a boat!
I'm going for a swim!
- Children! Come inside
for story time!
- Aw! I'll go for a swim later!
Race you to the door!
- Look!
[ Laughing ]
Go, squirrel!
[ Laughing ]
- Caillou's building adventure.
- Mommy, can we make jam
sandwiches too?
They're my favorite.
- Okay, Caillou.
- Caillou loved
helping his Mommy
and today they were making
lots of sandwiches!
- I can do it!
All done!
- That's great! Here,
let me cut it in half.
See? I'm going to cut
it into two...?
- Two triangles!
- [Rosie]: Mommy!
- Uh-uh! You'll have
to wait until lunchtime!
- That looks like a strawberry
jam "Caillou special".
- Do you want daddy
to put it in the box for you?
- Oh, boy!
- We'd better get going!
They're gonna need a lot
of helpers to build that house!
- Can I come too? I want to
help build a house!
- Sorry, Caillou. We'll be
really busy working.
And there's nothing for you
to play with over there.
You've already been a great help
by making those sandwiches
for the workers.
- Caillou still wanted very
much to go with Daddy
and Grandpa and help
build the house.
- What if Caillou went
for a quick visit with you?
I'll drop Rosie off at Grandma's
and Caillou can come home
with me when I bring
everybody's lunch!
- Sounds like a good plan to me!
- Yeah! Let's go!
- Yeah! Let's go!
- Daddy and Grandpa were
helping a lot of other people
build a house for a family
that didn't have one.
Caillou was very excited.
He couldn't wait to see what
everyone was doing.
- Just a minute, Caillou. Safety
is very important here.
That's why we wear work boots
to protect our feet.
- I've got my boots on!
- Good for you!
We also need hard hats
to protect our heads.
Which one would you like?
- I can help.
- How about helping me
by carrying these nails?
[ Laughing]
- Okay!
- This place can
be dangerous, Caillou.
You'll have to pay attention and
be very careful, okay?
- Why?
- Well, you don't want to get
in anybody's way while
they're working.
Just stay close to Grandpa
and me, all right?
- Caillou was a little scared
but he felt safe because
he was staying
right by his Grandpa and Daddy.
Caillou loved to watch
people working.
- Hello! Let me give you
a hand there.
See you later!
- Hi Sam! This is
my son, Caillou.
- Pleased
to meet you, Caillou.
Say, could I use
some of those nails?
I just ran out!
- Oh! Here you go!
- Thank you!
I just need a couple
to finish this wall.
Then we can put it up!
- Caillou didn't think this
looked much like a wall at all!
- Wanna help,
Caillou?
- Ha-Han.
- Count to three for us so
we'll all lift at the same time.
- One, two,
three... lift!
[ Men straining ]
[ Giggles ]
Wow! It is a wall!
[ Giggles ]
With lots of holes!
- We'll fix
that real soon.
With everybody
helping,
our house will be
finished in no time.
- Sam's family is going to live
in this house when it's done.
That's his son
right over there.
Why don't you see
if he wants to play?
- Hi! I'm Caillou!
- I'm Frankie!
Wanna help?
- Caillou was very proud
that he could help!
He felt like a
real house builder!
- Caillou.
Caillou?
I think we've got enough
gravel for the moment.
Thanks for all
your hard work!
- Is this really going
to be your house?
- Yup. We live
in an apartment now
but when the house is ready,
I'm gonna have my very own room!
Wanna see it?
- Daddy, can I go look at
Frankie's new room please?
- Sure, but
I'll come with you.
Remember, we have to
be careful around here.
- This is it! My room!
Yippee!
- It's big!
[ Giggles ]
- This is going
to be my window.
I can see the whole
street from here!
- This is going to be
a great room, Frankie!
[ Honking ]
- Mommy's here!
- You know
what that means?
- [Together]: Lunchtime!
- Thanks you!
Jam!
That's my favorite!
- Mine too!
[ Giggles ]
- Caillou liked his new
friend Frankie.
- It looks wet!
- It's soft too!
Look!
- Well, what do we have here?
I've got an idea.
You're both helping to
build this house,
so why don't you leave
your mark?
How about a handprint?
[ Giggles ]
- Okay Caillou,
it's time to go!
- Look Mommy! I left my mark!
- Bye Caillou! Come and
visit me in my new house
when it's done!
- Okay! Bye!
[ Giggles ]
- Caillou couldn't
wait to see Rosie and Grandma
and tell them all about
his great building adventure.
- Wor ing together.
Hey, Leo! Do you want
to help me build a castle?
- Sure, Caillou!

- It was a beautiful summer day
and Caillou the explorer
had found an anthill!
- Rosie! Come see what I found.
- Ah!
- Don't be scared Rosie...
- Daddy!
- ...they're just little ants.
[ Crying ]
Ants can't hurt you,
can they Daddy?
- Well, some ants bite,
but the ants we have here don't.
They're perfectly safe.
Upsidaisy!
[ Giggles ]
Weeee!
[ Giggles ]
- Caillou wondered
what it would be like
to be really,
really small
like an ant.
- Yippee!
[ Sniffing ]
Ah!
Giddyup!
Yee-haa!
[ Phone ringing ]
- I'll get it.
[ Beep! ]
Hello? Yes it is.
Who's this?
Really?
It's so nice to hear
your voice again!
Where have you been?
- Can I take a look?
- Sure! They're really small
so you have to use this!
[ Giggles ]
[ Giggles ]
They tickle.
- Me too!
Oooh!
- That was Carol!
Remember Carol?
From high school?
Well she's moved to the city and
wants me to come over tomorrow.
She has a little boy,
Caillou.
His name is Kevin
and he's four.
- I'm four too!
Can I come
with you Mommy?
- Of course you can,
but it's a long car ride.
You'll have to bring
some books to look at.
- It was a very, very
long trip.
- Are we there yet Mommy?
- No, Caillou,
but we're getting close.
- Caillou knew
he should be patient and wait,
but he was starting to think
they would never get there!
- Are we there yet?
- No.
- Are we there yet?
- No.
- Caillou was bored.
- Are we there yet?
- Yes, we are!
- Where's Kevin's
house Mommy?
- Kevin lives in
this apartment building,
way, way up
on the th floor!
- Wow!
- Tall buildings like this
are called skyscrapers, Caillou.
Can you guess why?
- Because they go so
high up they scrape the sky!
- Right! Would you like
to go up and meet Kevin now?
- Caillou had never met anyone
who lived in the sky before!
He could hardly wait
to go inside!
- Thank you.
- Thank you!
- You're welcome.
[ Elevator bell ]
- Can I press the button?
- We're going to seventeen.
One seven.
- Mommy, my tummy feels funny!
[ Elevator bell ]
Bye! Thanks
for the ride!
[ Giggles ]
Why are there
so many doors?
- Each door leads
to a different apartment
where a different
family lives.
- Hum... How does Kevin
know which one is his door?
- Each door has
a number on it, see?
Kevin lives at number ten.
- Oh!
.
.
Here it is! Number .
[ Doorbell ]
- Well hello there!
- Carol,
so good to see you.
And this must be Kevin.
Hi Kevin.
This is Caillou!
- Hi, want to see my room?
- Okay!
Can we go play
in your backyard?
- I don't have a backyard,
but I have a park
that I go to everyday!
- Me too! With swings
and a big slide!
- Do you want to see my park?
- Yeah! Can I press
the buttons in the elevator?
- Caillou didn't know
what Kevin was doing.
He thought he was going
to show him the park.
Caillou couldn't
believe his eyes!
He had never seen
a view like this before.
- Wow!
- Everything looked so small.
- See over there?
That's my park.
- We're up in the
sky with the birds!
[ Giggles ]
Look, you have ants in
your backyard too!
- Caillou thought the people
down below looked like
little ants.
[ Honking ]
Just like the ones
in his backyard!
- I'm making a skyscraper
that goes all
the way up to the clouds!
- Can I help?
- Yup!
- Okay Caillou,
time to go home.
My goodness,
you two have been busy!
- We made a
skyscraper, Mommy, see?
- It's very impressive.
- Can Kevin come and play
at our house some day?
- Of course,
Kevin and his mom can come
for a visit any time.
- When you come, be
sure to bring lots of books
for the car ride,
because it's a long,
loooong way away!
Bye!
- Did you and Kevin
have fun?
- Uh-huh! Kevin's home
sure is different from ours,
isn't it, Mommy?
- Yes it is,
but I bet you and Kevin
still have
a lot of things in common.
We sure do! We both have
ants in our backyards!
- Ants?
