THE GOOD
Two cute episodes for kids to enjoy with a bunch of features that will keep that tots occupied for hours.
THE BAD
Nada.
THE FEATURE
Dora the Explorer is back and she needs preschoolers to help in these two episodes where she rescues Diego and to save Baby Bear who is stuck on top of Big Mountain.

The cartoons are fun, engaging and as usual very interactive and Dora is still teaching children to speak Spanish a long the adventure. Kids also pick up animal fact, learn more about colors and counting and work on problem solving skills.
THE EXTRAS
"Duermanse Animale" Music Video

DVD-Rom Game Trial
THE VIDEO
Full Screen - 1.33:1. The colors are vibrant and the animations are well done.
THE AUDIO
Dolby Digital Surround Sound. Everything is average. The audio is not abnormally low or high and the songs come through loud and clear so the kids can sing their hearts out.
THE PACKAGE
Dora sits on the back of a goat with a tiger cub and a monkey who is pointing at Diego who is cliff climbing in the background. The back of the DVD has two scene stills and episode synopsis and a special features list.
THE FINAL WORD
If you kids are already hooked on Dora or you just want them to be entertained while picking up a second language, this is an educational yet fun filled DVD packed with hours of extras certain to keep the kids out of your hair for a bit.
