Mr. Hinkle lives next door to Caillou's house and Caillou has a babysitter named Julie. In the first season, Caillou was 4 years old and wore a light gray t-shirt in season 1, but later, he wore a golden yellow t-shirt in season 2, 3, 4, and 5. In season 4 and 5, Caillou started going to pre-school. Many parents have criticized the show, due to Caillou's behavior.
