Dora the Explorer - Dora's Fairytale Adventure Reviews


Just Have to Knock This One FULL SKULL BABY! empty skull, sniff. empty skull, sniff. empty skull, sniff. empty skull, sniff.
We normally love Dora the Explorer, but this video is marred by a dangerous message -- I would not recommend buying it. Dora encounters a giant who tells her he is sad b/c he has lost his puppy and she helps him find it and encourages the kids to do the same. Hello?! As other reviewers have noted, such stories have been used as ploys by predators to lure children. Although I used the opportunity to tell my 5 year old that Dora actually did not make a safe choice there and she should never do anything like that, young children are so impressionable that I wish she had not seen it in the first place.

Mostly okay [...] FULL SKULL BABY! empty skull, sniff. empty skull, sniff. empty skull, sniff. empty skull, sniff.
I just saw this with my two children and while most of the show was typical Dora, cutesy adventures to become a "real princess" [...]

Dora is asked by a "giant" to help him find his lost puppy. Dora doesn't know this Giant yet she gladly accepts the mission. I was more then stunned when I saw and heard this firsthand. This is such a stereotypical lure for predators and Dora just helped the predators by sending the message that it's okay.

I know it's just a cartoon and that Dora is talking to a "Giant" but the message was not lost by my 4 year old and she said we should "always help if someone loses their puppy because they might be sad" I told her that Dora can help but that my own child should never ever help unless Mom or Dad are with her and that it was dangerous.

I would give this one zero stars if that were an option but as it is I am forced to give one star that I do not feel this show is worthy of.

Get this video if you must but be warned that your impressionable child may be left with the same message that if it's okay for Dora to help a stranger find their puppy it must be okay for them to help a stranger find their lost pet, too.
