DORA THE EXPLORER: CELEBRATE WITH DORA
Available on DVD on Nov. 15, 2011

If your little one is anything like my Emma they cannot get enough of Dora. This particular box set has some of Emma’s favorites included. I have heard “It’s a present for SANTA!” so many times it rings in my ears… but she loves it every single time. It’s fun to have the episodes grouped by topic.

In every episode, Dora and Boots invite the audience to participate in an exciting adventure, where each step of their journey consists of a problem or puzzle that Dora and the audience must think their way through in order to solve the next problem. Dora is proudly bilingual and uses her knowledge of English and Spanish to communicate with her friends, overcome obstacles and reach her goals. In each episode, Dora teaches Spanish words or phrases to the viewers and then asks them to use it to solve a problem and forge ahead. Ultimately, Dora and her best friend, Boots, triumph, and the story always ends with a “We Did It!” anthem.

*****

Enjoy all of Dora’s favorite holidays and fiestas in this new three-DVD box set, Dora the Explorer: Celebrate with Dora. The special box set includes Dora’s Christmas!, Dora’s Halloween and Dora’s Big Birthday Adventure, all in one gift-able collection!

Dora the Explorer: Celebrate with Dora Episode Synopses:

School Pet
Dora and Boots save the school pet, a hamster named Mimo, who goes missing from his cage.
Quack Quack!

Dora Helps the Birthday Wizzle
Dora is reading a storybook about a Birthday Wizzle who could make birthday wishes come true with his magic wand.

Dora must jump into the book and bring the wishing wand back to the Wizzle to give him his birthday wish.
Wizzle Wishes
Dora and Boots meet a cute little Wizzle who lost his bag of wishes and can’t get home. They set off in search of the lost wishes, but their friends keep finding the wishes first.
