Dora the Explorer is a seven-year-old Latina heroine whose adventures take place in an imaginative, tropical world filled with jungles, beaches and rainforests. Dora explores her world just as pre-schoolers do everyday. Both the TV and stage shows are designed to engage pre-schoolers to explore, communicate, solve puzzles and discover a diverse and exciting world, while having fun of course!

Each step of their journey consists of a problem or a puzzle that Dora and the audience must solve in order to move on to the next challenge. Dora is proudly bilingual and uses her knowledge of English and Spanish to communicate with her friends, overcome obstacles and reach her goals. Dora teaches Spanish words or phrases to the audience and then encourages them to use their new words to help her complete her mission.

Dora the Explorer is consistently a top three ratings show on Nickelodeon's award-winning pre-school segment Nick Jr. Dora fans and even those new to Dora are sure to enjoy this spectacular and unprecedented family show that will ignite kids to think and play along.
