Bottom Line

This collection of Caillou and 4 of his pals is a great deal for a toy set, but the inclusion of a little backpack makes it an entertaining and practical gift.

Cons

Small, but perfectly proportioned for small hands.

Easiest to Use
Bottom Line

This feature-packed yet simple to operate wind-up train will keep Caillou’s tiniest fans occupied with its fun sounds and colorful design.

Pros

Includes Caillou and Rosie figurines. The train’s steam cloud squeaks. Ringing train car bell. Caillou bobs up and down as the train moves. Wind the train and watch it roll.

Bottom Line

This plush of Caillou’s furry friend was designed to last a long time, is as big as a real cat, and most importantly, Gilbert is even cuddlier than you could hope for.

Cons

No light-up or sound features.

We purchase every product we review with our own funds — we never accept anything from product manufacturers.

Whether they’ve read one of the 15 million copies sold of the original book series, or they became hooked on the long-running cartoon, there are many kids who are huge fans of the little boy with the big imagination named Caillou. Caillou’s stories are sweet, while focusing on how a 4-year-old may perceive the world around him, and his toys reflect these core values with their bright colors and simple designs. Little sister Rosie, sleepy cat Gilbert, and Caillou himself are well-represented in the nicely varied toy line, making it much easier to search for favorite characters as you compare the best Caillou toys available.
