Both are free to download. Caillou Plays Professions sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Odd Squad Gadget Lab asks for nothing beyond the download.
Caillou Plays Professions holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 2.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Odd Squad Gadget Lab has 90 ratings behind it against 10, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 17% of Odd Squad Gadget Lab's written reviews are positive against 0% of Caillou Plays Professions's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
