In this Caillou episode we explore how Caillou copes with change. Caillou plays in the rain, plays pretend and learns about playing by the rules. He also pretends to be a superhero, with his little sister, Rosie. Fun in the Mud: It's raining outside but there is nothing that can stop Caillou! Since no one wants to join him, he goes outside to play in his new froggie boots, his rain coat and hat. He has a great time walking through water, making holes in the wet sand of the sand box, and making mud soup. He sees a robin catch a worm and is thrilled when he finds a worm of his own. When Leo calls to invite Caillou over to play, Caillou isn't sure at first if he wants to go since he's having such a great time by himself but, he decides that he wants to show his worm to Leo and heads off to see his friend. (Additional Lessons: Playing Alone) I Scream for Ice Cream!: Caillou, Rosie and Mom are having fun at the park when the ice-cream man comes around. Caillou wants an ice-cream but the ice-cream man leaves before he can get there. Caillou is very frustrated and complains to Dad when they get home. Dad has an idea and Caillou cools off by riding his bicycle. When Caillou rings his bicycle bell, Dad suggests Caillou be the ice-cream man! Caillou is delighted by the idea. Soon, lots of "customers" join him in the kitchen to get one of his unique ice-cream creations. (Additional Lessons: Sharing) Super Caillou: Caillou just loves his Superbear storybook. Dad reads it to him once but when Caillou wants to hear it again and again, Dad explains that he has other things to do. Caillou decides to make up a story on his own and plays it out with Rosie. "Superbear" and "Little Bear" run after the villain Gilbert AKA "Bad-Bazoo-Bear" and save the day. When they get to the kitchen a real task awaits them! Mom can't find her car keys. "Superbear" is quick to check around and finds them. Mom is very proud of her two super heroes.

He tries to change the rules but Mom stands her ground. These are the rules and you can't always win. Upset, Caillou takes a time out by himself. After a little while, he decides he wants to play again. He races Teddy, Gilbert and eventually Rosie who turns out to have a few tricks of her own! (Additional Lessons: Learning to Follow Rules)
