With her cheerful nature, inquiring mind, and colorful fashion sense, Nickelodeon's adorable bilingual heroine DORA THE EXPLORER has charmed both pre-school-age children and their parents alike. Designed to simulate a computer game, the animated series follows the cute little Latina girl, her monkey pal Boots, and their anthropomorphic cohorts Map and Backpack as they set out on problem-solving adventures that encourage interaction and physical activity while teaching simple concepts such as counting, logic skills, and basic Spanish. Dora and her pals (including cousin Diego) come bearing gifts in this animated program that pays homage to Three Kings Day, the day on which children receive presents in many Spanish-speaking countries.
