Caillou:
"rushing the raspberry"

Storyteller:
caillou was having fun helping
mommy in the garden.

Are the raspberries ready now,
mommy?

Rosie:
waz-bewwies?!

Mommy:
rasp-berries.

No, they're not ready yet.

They need a little
more time.

Caillou:
aww. I don't like waiting.

Mommy:
I know what might help
pass the time.

You've been such
a good helper,

Maybe you'd like to be
my "junior gardener"?

Okay!

(Meow)

(Gasp)

Oops.
Sorry, gilbert.

You don't need watering!

(Meows)

Oh, caillou.

Sorry mommy.

Miss martin:
okay, kids.

We put the seeds in the cups,
just like this...

Then we'll give
them some water

And put them on
the windowsill, because...

Bean seeds... Plus water...
Plus sunlight make...

Kids:
bean plants!

That's right, class.

My what clever gardeners
we have!

Yes, caillou?

I'm a junior gardener.

I'm helping my mommy
grow a raspberry bush!

That's wonderful!

Uh-huh.

And I'll have raspberries to
share with the whole class!

Kids:
(cheer)

Miss martin:
(chuckles) that's very nice
of you, caillou.

Of course, you and your
family may want to eat

The raspberries too.

We're going to have
tons of raspberries!

And I'll make sure
everybody gets some!

Mmm. I could eat a million
raspberries.

Promise to bring them?

Yes!

Are the raspberries
ready now?

Not yet, caillou.

You're going to have to be
a little more patient.

Caillou:
do you know what I learned
today?

Bean seeds plus water
plus sunlight make...

Bean plants!

That's very good, caillou.

Rosie:
bewwie!

No, rosie!

The berries aren't
ready yet.

Mommy said so.

That's right, rosie.

When they turn bright red,

Then they'll be ready to eat.

But if you're hungry,
we could have a little snack.

Caillou:
yes, please!

Rosie:
hungwy!

(Drinking sounds)

Mommy:
aren't you going to drink
your milk, rosie?

No.

But milk will help you
grow up big and tall!

Mmm.
(Guzzling sounds)

Ahh...

Rosie tall now!

Oooh yes, much taller!

Storyteller:
caillou suddenly had an idea.

If milk could make rosie
grow bigger,

Maybe it would do the same
for the raspberry bush!

Mommy:
oh, caillou!
What are you doing?

Giving the raspberry bush
some milk...

So it'll grow big and tall.

(With a chuckle)
I'm afraid that doesn't work
with plants, sweetie.

They only like water!

Storyteller:
caillou wanted the raspberries
to ripen faster,

So he thought he'd give
the bush more water.

(Effort grunts)

Mommy:
now what are you doing,
caillou?

Caillou:
I'm going to give
the bush more water,

So the berries will ripen!

I think the bush
got enough water today.

What it really needs
is a little more time

For the berries to ripen!

Okay, mommy.

(Sighs)
I can give them
a little more time.

Leo:
look, the beans
are starting to grow!

Hey, did you bring us some
raspberries?!

No, they're not
ready yet.

You will bring us some,
right?

You promised!

I'm sure caillou will do his
best to bring in some berries

When they're ready.

You can't rush a raspberry!

C'mon, grow!

Storyteller:
rushing the raspberries
was exactly

What caillou intended to do.

Pretty pleeeeeeease, grow,
with...

Raspberries on top!

(Sighs)
maybe you need more water.

You're taking very good care
of the raspberry bush, caillou.

Thank you, but...

Do you think the raspberries
will ever be ready?

I'm sure they'll ripen soon.

They're getting lots of water
and sunshine.

Not to worry.

There's no sun!

Storyteller:
caillou was worried.

He knew that plants needed
lots of sunshine to grow.

What're you doing,
caillou?

Caillou:
the sun is hiding!

I'm giving the bush some more
light, so it'll grow!

That's very thoughtful,

But raspberries need
sunlight...

Not light from a flashlight.

Oh.

Mommy:
don't worry, the sun will
come out again soon.

When? I promised I'd take some
raspberries to preschool,

But they're not ready yet!

Oh, I see.

They'll ripen up soon,
I promise.

You can't rush a raspberry!

That's what miss martin said!

Rush a raspberry?

(Slight chuckle)
well, miss martin
is very wise.

Now, why don't we check
them again tomorrow, okay?

Caillou:
okay, mommy.

Rosie:
(yawns)

Mommy:
caillou! Rosie!

There's something you should
see in the backyard!

Storyteller:
caillou was worried.

He thought something had
happened to his raspberry bush.

Caillou was right!

Something had happened
to the raspberry bush.

(Gasp)
raspberries! Look!

Rosie:
waz-bewwies!

That's right, rasp-berries!

They're finally ripe!

(Chuckle)
so, was it worth the wait?

Both:
yes!

Mmmm.

Miss martin:
I think we should all say
'thank you' to caillou

For bringing in these
tasty raspberries!

Kids:
thank you, caillou.

Mmm, I love raspberries

More than anything
in the whole world!

Thanks, caillou.

(Giggle)
you're welcome.

Yes, leo?

When are we going
to eat our beans?

The plants are coming along
nicely, leo,

But we won't be able to pick
beans for quite awhile.

We have to be patient,
right miss martin?

Plants need time to grow!

Miss martin:
that's right, caillou.

Hmm, maybe we should add that
to our chart:

Bean seeds plus water plus
sunlight plus time make...

Kids:
bean plants!

Storyteller:
caillou learned that you
can't rush a raspberry bush,

Or any other plant!

But they were
worth waiting for!

Mmm!

♪♪♪

Caillou:
"wait to skate"

♪♪♪

Mommy,
what's daddy doing?

Oh, he's working on something
for you and rosie.

Really? What is it?

It's something
extra-special!

Storyteller:
caillou couldn't wait to find
out what daddy was working on.

Daddy's building...
A skating rink!

A skating rink?!
Yaaaaay!

Yaaay!
Skating wink!

Mommy:
ah-ah-ah.

(Chuckles)
don't you think
you should change

Out of your jammies first?

Jammies?
(Giggling) oops!

(Hammering)

That should
just about do it.

Caillou:
hi daddy!

Oh! Hi, caillou.
Hi rosie.

Caillou:
we're ready to skate,
daddy!

Where's the rink?

Daddy:
this is the rink.

But I'm afraid it's not
ready for skating on.

Not ready?

Aww!

Storyteller:
caillou was disappointed.

He wanted to get skating
right away!

Well, if you two help me,

The rink will get
finished much faster!

Both:
yay!

Good!

First we need some snowplows

To push snow into the frame.

(Effort grunts)

(Laughter)

(Effort grunts)

(Effort grunts)

Caillou:
beep! Beep!
Here comes the snowplow!

Caillou and rosie:
(laughter) rrrrrrrr!

(Effort grunts)

(Giggling)

Daddy:
okay! That's plenty of snow!

C'mon, there's
lots more to do!

We have to pack down that snow,
nice and tight!

And to do that we need to jump
up and down like kangaroos!

Who's a kangaroo?

Rosie:
rosie kangawoo!
(Giggling)

Caillou:
me too! (Giggles)

Now we're giants!

Fee fi fo fum!

Both:
fee fi fo fum!

All:
fee fi fo fum!
Oof!

(Laughter)

Now the snow's good
and flat!

Caillou:
yaay!

Now we skate!

Caillou, I'm sorry.
It's not ready yet.

It takes a long time
to build an ice rink.

Storyteller:
caillou wondered if the rink
would ever be finished!

Rosie:
(giggles)

Daddy grow skating wink!

(Laughs)
not quite, rosie.

I'm watering the snow.

When it gets cold enough,

It will freeze
and turn into ice.

And then we can skate!

Storyteller:
but caillou was growing
impatient.

He wanted to skate
right away!

It takes a long time for
water to freeze, caillou.

I know,
but I can't wait!

Why don't you and rosie
build a snowman?

That'll be a fun way
to pass the time.

Snowman!

Okay.

There you go,
mr. Snowman!

Look, daddy!

Our snowman wants
to skate with us!

(Laughs)
that's great, caillou!

It's always nice
to invite friends.

Storyteller:
caillou wondered
if the rink was frozen yet.

So he decided to test it out.

The ice seemed like
it was ready for skating...

...or sliding!

Caillou, no!

Uh-oh.

Caillou all wet!

Caillou:
I'm sorry, daddy!

I thought it was frozen.

Daddy:
you need to be a little more
patient, caillou.

Good things are
worth waiting for!

Now I'll have to fix
the rink.

How long will that take,
daddy?

Well, it should be ready
by tomorrow morning.

Tomorrow morning?!

(Sighs)
that's forever!

(Wind gusts)

And caillou swim
in a snow!

I wasn't swimming,
rosie.

I was trying to skate.

Don't worry, caillou.

You'll be skating
soon enough.

I know.
But waiting isn't any fun.

Hrumph... Hey!

Storyteller:
caillou had forgotten
his socks could slide

On the kitchen floor.

Caillou:
look, it's just
like I'm skating!

Rosie:
caillou skate!

Caillou and rosie skate!

Rosie:
(giggling)

Caillou:
we don't have to wait...
To pretend to skate!

(Laughs) well done!

(Wind gusts)

(Birds chirp)

It's morning!

(Taps)

Yaaay!

Storyteller:
caillou was excited!

The rink was finally ready!

(Giggling)
oops, I almost forgot -

I can't skate
with my pajamas on!

(Gulping sounds)

Mommy:
caillou, slow down.

The ice will still be there
when you get outside,

I promise.

Sorry mommy.
I'm just excited!

Rosie:
(giggling)

So, was the skating
rink worth waiting for?

Both:
yes!

Mommy:
hey, there's my little skaters.

Who wants hot chocolate?

All:
I do!

(Unsteady sounds)
oof!

(Giggling)

It might be a little hot.

So make sure you blow on it
and let it cool down.

Ooh! Hot!

I think I b*rned
my tongue a little.

(Giggling)

You have to be patient,
daddy.

Good things
are worth waiting for!

(Chuckling)
yes, they are, caillou.

Storyteller:
indeed! Next year, caillou
would be a little more patient

About skating on the ice.

If the rain stops we
can go outside and play.

But for now why don't you
pick out a book to look at?

Books are a great way to
have fun on a rainy day.

Ok.

Look, I've got jack
and the beanstalk.

And it has a giant in it.

I found a book
about dinosaurs.

What are you going
to read, caillou?

I want a book
about a superhero.

What kind of superhero?

A superhero who
makes it stop raining.

I don't think we have a
book like that, caillou.

But would you
like to write one?

I could help you.

Ok.

Now, why don't you tell
me your superhero story

And I'll write it down.

Um, once upon a time, everybody

Wanted to go outside,
but it was raining.

So the superhero -

What was his name?

Super caillou!

That's a good name.

What did super caillou do?

He flew up to the clouds.

That's where the
rain comes from!

Shh!

And the clouds were big
sponges full of water.

So he flew up on the
top of the clouds.

Was anybody else up there?

Yeah, a giant!

And a dinosaur.

Oh my!

A giant and a
dinosaur in the clouds!

Then what happened?

Um...

So super caillou wanted
to stop the rain, and?

Yeah, the clouds were wet
because the giant was washing

His car and he left
the hose running.

(Laughter)

So he got the giant and
the dinosaur to help him

Squish out all the water.

They jumped up and down
on the clouds and

Squished the water out.

Squish, squish, squish.

What happened after they
squished out all the water?

It stopped raining and
they all went for a ride

In the giant's car.

...in the giant's car.

There, what a good story!

And now you have it
all written down.

There aren't any pictures.

Not yet.

The pictures in books
are called illustrations.

Would you like to make some
illustrations for your book?

Yeah!

And there we are.

Congratulations,
caillou, you're an author.

That means you
wrote your own book!

Bye, caillou!

Caillou:
"caillou's hiccups"

Storyteller:
caillou and his family
were enjoying

A big spaghetti dinner.

This is great!

(Slurp)

Spaghetti is my favourite!

Thank you, caillou.

Please just try not
to slurp it when you eat.

Storyteller:
caillou loved spaghetti.

But it was very hard
to eat it

Without making
a slurping noise.

(Slurp)

Oops! Excuse me!

It's okay, caillou.

I know you were
trying your best.

Daddy:
just like rosie.

She's trying her best
not to get her napkin

Covered with spaghetti
sauce.

Napkin clean!

Mommy:
that's good, rosie,

But you're supposed
to use your napkin -

Especially when sauce
is all over your face!

Oops!

(Laughter)

Storyteller:
everybody laughed
along with rosie.

But while caillou was
laughing...

(Hiccup)

Storyteller:
...he made a noise!

Mommy:
c'mon, rosie,
let's get you cleaned up.

And you can help me
with the dishes, caillou.

Caillou:
okay! I'll help.
(Hiccup)

(Hiccup)

Storyteller:
caillou was extra careful
not to drop anything.

But it was hard, because
of the noises he made.

(Hiccup)

Whoah! Sounds like
someone's got the hiccups!

The hiccups?

How do i... (Hiccup)

How do I stop them?

Mommy:
just wait...

They usually go away
on their own.

Oh. Okay, I can wait.

(Hiccup)

Hey, I waited,
but they didn't go away!

You have to wait longer
than that, pumpkin!

Why not play in the living
room while you wait?

Okay, mommy!

(Hiccup)

(Giggling)

Storyteller:
caillou decided to build a
tower while he waited, but...

(Hiccup)

Awww. Are these hiccups
ever going to go away?

(Hiccup)

Mommy:
how's it going out here?

Caillou:
these hiccups are messing up
everything!

(Hiccup)

(Giggles)

Caillou:
I need them to go away!

Just try not to think
about them, caillou.

If you wait, the hiccups
will go away on their own.

But I've been waiting!

Mommy:
hmmm... Well, I have heard that
sometimes

Hiccups can be cured by giving
someone a little scare.

A scare?
(Hiccup)

I don't like scares!

Just a little scare,
caillou.

It makes the person gasp,

And then the hiccups go away.

Do you want
to give it a try?

Caillou:
if it'll make my hiccups
go away then...

Okay. (Hiccup)

Okay, get ready...
And... Boo!

(Gasp)

Hey, it worked!

(Hiccup)

Aw, it didn't work.

Maybe it wasn't scary
enough?

Well, we can take care of that,
right rosie?

Boo-oo-ooo-ooo!

Rosie:
(giggle)
boo. Boo boo booooo!

Storyteller:
caillou wasn't scared at all.

Mommy and rosie
were much too funny!

(Laughing)
(hiccup)

Oh! It's not working!

Good thing I'm here, then!

I've got a few sure-to-work
hiccup cures up my sleeve.

Really?

Sure! I'm the world's
number one,

All-time hiccup cure champion.

C'mon, I'll show you!

Daddy:
now, some people cure hiccups

By drinking water
really fast... From a hose!

But it's not as easy
as it looks.

It can get a little messy!

I don't care.

(Hiccup)
I want to try!

(Hiccup)

Storyteller:
caillou found out that drinking
from a hose was very messy.

...and so did daddy!

(Laughing) hey!

Whoops, sorry, daddy.

That's okay, caillou.

On a hot day like this,

Some cool water is good
for me and the grass!

(Hiccup)

But it didn't work.

I still have the hiccups.

Don't worry, caillou, I've got
another cure up my sleeve.

Daddy:
the "upside down solution"
always works!

Rosie turn!
Rosie turn!

Only if you have hiccups,
rosie.

This is so my hiccups
will go aw- (hiccup)

Don't worry, there's one more
cure we can try!

Daddy:
I've saved the best
for last!

This one's almost sure
to get rid of your hiccups!

What is it?
(Hiccup)

Daddy:
I'll show you!

(Back cracks)

You hop on your left foot,

And rub your head
with your right hand.

Storyteller:
caillou thought daddy
looked silly.

And so did mommy and rosie.

(Laughing)

Oh my!
Doesn't daddy look...

Funny!

He does!
(Laughing)

(Hiccup)

Storyteller:
but caillou really wanted
to get rid of his hiccups.

So, he started hopping too.

♪♪♪

That's the spirit,
caillou!

Hop those hiccups away!

♪♪♪

(Meow)

That's right, rosie!
You can hop too!

Whooah!

Are you okay?
(Hiccup)

(Chuckles)
I'm fine!

I guess I need to practice
my hopping more often.

(Hiccup)
I'm still hiccupping!

What if I have them forever?

(Hiccup)
and ever! And ever!

(Hiccup)

Well, I hate to say this,

But maybe I'll just
have to stop

Making spaghetti for dinner,

Since spaghetti seems
to give you the hiccups!

(Big gasp)
but mommy,

Spaghetti's my favourite!

And rosie's favourite!

And daddy's favourite!

It wasn't the spaghetti
that gave me the hiccups...

I know it wasn't.
And besides,

I think they might be...
Gone? Listen!

Storyteller:
caillou was right!

His hiccups had gone away!

Perhaps I scared them away

By saying I wouldn't make
spaghetti anymore?

Nah. I think they went away
on their own,

Just like you said they would.

But are you really going
to stop making spaghetti?

Of course not, caillou.

I was just teasing.

Whew, that's a relief!
I love spaghetti.

Rosie:
rosie too!
Pssghetti!

Mommy:
not right now, rosie.
We just had spaghetti!

But soon, rosie,
we promise!

(Hiccup)

Uh-oh,
now I've got hiccups!

(Hiccup)

Storyteller:
caillou had realized hiccups
go away on their own -

With a little patience.
