Yesterday, Nickelodeon released a great new DVD for all Dora the Explorer fans entitled: Dora the Explorer: Dora's Ice Skating Spectacular!  The daycare kids all just love Dora!  While I am making lunch and need them to settle down, my go-to children's program is Dora the Explorer!  It keeps them all entertained and out of mischief.  They were all thrilled to watch this new DVD featuring Dora and Boots the monkey.  In the title episode Dora must help the Snowy Princess and all of the forest creatures get their ice skates back from a witch.  The kids love to interact with Dora and help her to find her way with the help of the map!  The kids also love to stop Swiper the Fox from swiping all of Dora's stuff!  This is a wonderful children's program and a wonderful DVD!  This would make an excellent gift for the Dora the Explorer fan in your life!

Dora the Explorer, created by Chris Gifford, Valerie Walsh Valdes and Eric Weiner, is a play-along, animated adventure series starring Dora, a seven-year-old Latina heroine whose adventures take place in an imaginative, tropical world filled with jungles, beaches and rainforests.  She explores her world just as preschoolers do every day, and the show is designed to actively engage its audience in an interactive quest using a variety of learning techniques.

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.
