My three-year-old son is really into imaginative play right now. He's constantly making up scenarios and acting them out with whatever toys is within his reach. So you can imagine how excited he was when he got his hands on the new Caillou Talking Doll!
I couldn't get the doll out of the box fast enough for him, and as soon as I did, he immediately began interacting with it. The removable hat and backpack were key features as he added some trinkets inside the backpack for him and Caillou to play with when they reached their next destination. The hat was fun to swap out with the hat he was wearing....hey, I'll take that as a lesson in sharing, right?
And to top it off, when you push the patch on Caillou's sweater, he speaks to you, even offering two quick and easy French words to learn and say. Perfect for the kid who loves to repeat everything he hears!
With the Caillou brand approaching it's 25th anniversary and celebrating 15 years on the air on PBS next year, the new Caillou Talking Doll hit the shelves in April 2014 and retails for $34.99. Caillou apparel, books, home video and other merchandise are sold online and in mass and specialty retail stores nationwide.
Grab the Caillou Talking Doll for your kids this Spring and let them experience the fun!
