Synopsis

Today Caillou discovers the wonders of the natural world. Grandma introduces Caillou to the many birds that live in the park, and then gives him a birdhouse for his own backyard. That's why Caillou's prepared when he and Sarah find a baby bird that's fallen from its nest, and they nurse it back to health. Later, Caillou and his daycare buddies have a treasure hunt in the forest. With Sarah and a magnifying glass, Caillou pretends to be a jungle explorer, hunting "big game" (like Gilbert and butterflies) in the garden. The puppets are on their own safari: Gilbert plays a detective game with flowers, Teddy searches for wild berries, and Rexy goes on the lookout for wild animals.
