Dora’s Easter Adventure

• Dora and Boots are waiting for their friend, the Hip-Hop Bunny, to bring his basket filled with eggs and treats for their big egg hunt. Just as the Bunny arrives at the forest, Swiper swipes the basket and throws it far into the Rainbow Garden – where it’s headed for a waterfall! It’s Dora and Boots to the rescue as they join the Bunny on an Easter Day Adventure singing the Hip-Hop Bunny’s Easter song, going past the scratchy flowers at the Garden and racing down the Rainbow River on a giant rubber ducky to save the basket.

Plus Two Bonus Episodes!

• The Grumpy Old Troll Gets Married
• Dora in Troll Land

MY THOUGHTS:

My boys love Dora and this is actually the first Dora DVD we have.  The DVD features one Easter themed episode and two others.  We have literally watched this DVD on repeat for two days when we got it, they love it that much!  The Easter episode is more vibrant and newer looking compared to regular Dora but my boys didn’t even notice the difference in animation.  It also features a bunny who sings though his hip-hop journey.  I liked that this episode helped my boys remember that the Easter bunny will be coming here soon.  Their favorite episodes though were the other two with featured the Grumpy Old Troll getting married and Troll Land.

Overall this is a DVD we will be watching year-round.  As much as I am not a Dora fan I do think she is great for preschoolers as my boys are always repeating after here and trying to say her Spanish words.  I actually encourage them watching Dora!  This DVD would also make a great Easter present!
