In November 2016, Corus Entertainment joined the team, and it was confirmed that it will air on PBS Kids and Treehouse in the US, and Netflix in the UK.

The Toon Boom animation will be provided by Gaumont Animation with the hand-drawn animation being done at 9 Story Media Group, which will also produce the show. The CGI backgrounds and props will be built with Autodesk Maya, with the show also featuring CGI scenes. The ghost thinking speech bubble will also be CGI too, when Caillou thinks what to do.
