Yes, it has finally happened, a Dora the Explorer thread has been started!!
Come all lovers of the show a like, don't be afraid to show affection of love toward Boots and only Boots!! and other characters!!
I mean, ya'll do it for Ed, why not Dora? tongue.gif
Personally, this is probably one of the best things to hit television, especially directed at younger children. As much as it's fun, children actually learn from it, which is pretty hard to find in a TV show lately, unless it's on The Discovery Channel, or something.
Any other Dora lovers? *Looks around*

Oh yes!! Another reason why this is great; n00bs like me who have spanish roots but over time have forgotten simple words and phrases in the language learn from Dora. Also it can be used to learn different Languages! I think they have this French Dora in which you learn English.

I have a kid who just adores Dora. I've taken him to see some of the live shows too. Although, I like Dora, but I'm liking Diego more, and it's not really all that educational. Well except for the learning spanish part, and he usually forgets what he learned right after the show. Disney's Little Einsteins is way better, as far as education is concerned. Dora and Diego are a lot more fun to watch. " Backpack, Backpack". tongue.gif I love that song!

Who cares how eduacational it is, it makes me feel smart. smile.gif
*~vachi~*
umm...Dora...the songs are really sticky...although I donīt watch it...too early and I go to school...XD
But I must say that in here, kids learn english instead of spanish(duh...itīs the first language in here...XD), I wish I could see it in english someday might be fun!!! laugh.gif
Favorite character? I donīt know...I donīt watch it...anymore smile.gif

I'd rather see a cartoon that teaches spanish children to speak English correctly. And maybe spanish adults.
Homunculi-Envy
interesting, teaches spanish. but the only really thing it does for me is its on before LAzytown. Yes, i like Lazytown
Zarpia
OMG! I hate lazy town laugh.gif

Dora the explorer? This show's song is like...tenth or something in the top 50 in France <<;

Never watched it. The singing dolls really amused me though.

But I'm more into Hamtaro! biggrin.gif

It may teach Spanish and counting, but it teaches poor life lessons. What kind of things are kids gonna learn if they think they can stop swiper just with "Swiper, no swiping."?

"Rapist, no raping." Don't think that's gonna work out too well.

WTF does a monkey need with boots? Why is Dora wearing keds in the jungle?

I love dora, but i've seen her cousin, who is this guy? But i think he has his own show now.
Also I saw a new girl. Does anyone know about it ,

They teach you Algebra and other stuffs... Haha (Like they would ever do that)
I heard it was aired non-stop together with Blues Clues in Neverland Ranch.
Anyway, I learn alot of Spanish. The progress per story is very slow... Very

Considering it's meant for people barely out of diapers, nobody over the age of 5 is expected to actually like it. rolleyes.gif

Geez! It's just a show. A Little child's show. If you don't like it. Don't watch it. Simple solution.
Anyway, my little sis loves that show. She remids me of how i am with my anime addiction. happy.gif

THIS SHOW EDUCATES CHILDREN. THUS IS CRAP.

THE BIGGER MY LETTERS THE MORE SARCASTIC I AM.

I think this show is so annoying.My sister used to watch it all the time.She had DVDs of it,and would watch it all the time.

I do think it could help children learn, safety(like wearing seat belts) and other important things like that.
It is important for kids to watch cartoons that educate them.

The only reason I hate this show so much is because I would have to watch it all the time when I baby-sat.

I didn't really like this show but my older brother tries to annoy me by forcing me to watch this,looks like its crappy but it sure is a safe way to educate younger children properly,why me? I'm still fine,the kinds of songs I listen to aren't really that of a christian,why? I listen to MCR,Greenday,Fall Out Boy,Avril Lavigne and you guys know their songs include the words F*ck,but I'm still running okay here!
