It was just a theory though, but I guess Caillou is just a normal, healthy toddler.

He doesn't have curly blond hair, a carrot-top, brown hair, glasses, or ethnic features, because he represents all children. We wanted to make Caillou universal so every child could identify with him. And they do! Caillou's baldness may make him different, but we hope it's helping children understand that being different isn't just okay, it's normal. http://www.chouette-publishing.com/about-caillou/frequently-asked-questions/why-caillou-bald Caillou stands for all children.

I don't quite understand how he can be universal being white and bald. My kids love it of course even though they aren't bald. As for other shows, I have a bigger beef with the fact that out of all the things he should have learned from a Dora show, he spouts out "Swiper no swiping!" instead. Yea, that was the end of that show for us. I wondered this question simply on a whim. I don’t quite understand how he can be universal being white and bald.

I could understand their point better if he was maybe a blue, green or orange bald kid. Regardless, my daughter loves the show and she is black.
