Storyteller: This is the story of when Caillou learned to skate. It happened on a winter day, just like today.
Ever since Caillou watched a hockey game with his Mommy and Daddy, he wanted to skate.
So his Daddy made a skating rink in the backyard, and bought him his first pair of skates.
Announcer: He shoots, he scores.
Caillou: I wanna be a hockey player.
Mommy: Good. But first we need to learn to skate.
Caillou: I can skate fastest in the world. Look, Mommy. He fell down.
Mommy: So I'll be skating with the world champion. That's great.
Daddy: See, soon you'll be able to skate like this.
Mommy: Okay, now the first thing you have to learn is how to stand.
Storyteller: Caillou discovered that skating wasn't as easy as he thought it would be.
Mommy: Oh, Caillou!
Caillou: Mommy!
Daddy: This should help until you get the hang of it.
Mommy: And now you're ready to skate.
Caillou: I don't wanna skate any more. It's too hard.
Daddy: I know it isn't easy. But I'm very proud of you for trying. Let's do it again.
Storyteller: Caillou was tired of falling and falling. But he did feel like trying one more time with his Daddy.
Caillou: I want to try again.
Mommy: Good for you.
Daddy: You're doing great, Caillou.
Caillou
Oh, no. Look, Daddy. I can do it. Whoa! Yeah! Look at me.
Mommy: Are you all right, Caillou? Caillou, you're skating, you're really skating.
Caillou: Look Mommy, I'm skating.
Daddy: Who wants some hot chocolate?
Storyteller: After falling a lot, Caillou was finally getting the hang of it, except...
Caillou: Mommy. Daddy.
Mommy: Yes, dear.
Daddy: I guess your next lesson will be how to turn. And then we'll have to think about getting you a hockey stick.
Caillou: A hockey stick? Wow.
