Join PBS kids and Calliou, the curious preschooler, from the book series by Christine L’Heureuxz and illustrator Helene Desputeaux. Calliou explores the world while using his imagination on many different adventures. Activities, printables, videos, and a new app for your mobile device all feature Calliou and his curiosity. The activities feature school readiness skills involving spatial awareness, memory, puzzles, matching letters, and following musical melodies. Advertisements are only for Calliou products.

In the Classroom

After reading some of the Calliou adventures to your preschoolers, bring him to life on the PBS kids website. Be sure to check out the Meet the Characters area (under About) to introduce this resource. Use the activities on your interactive whiteboard, or use at center time. Recommend this site to parents as a resource for school readiness. Depending on the age of the child, activities can be played with an adult or without an adult.
