Product Description

Vamanos! Everybody let's go and find out what Tico's wonderful new machine - the Slider-Glider-Rider - can do! Unfortunately, just as he tries to give Dora and Boots and extra special ride, the Rider falls apart! Dora and Boots must discover the parts that will fix Tico's machine, and bring them back so he can fix it. Discovering color, counting and vocabulary skills along the way with Dora and Boots is a rewarding journey children will want to make again, and again! For use with the V.Smile TV Learning System, sold separately.

Editorial Review

Dora the Explorer, everyone's favorite bilingual adventurer is here to help young children learn a variety of skills and concepts. With the help of Boots, her monkey sidekick, Dora teaches colors, shapes, numbers, animals, spatial skills, and problem solving. This Dora Smartridge is compatible with the V-Tech V-Smile system. In an informal test, we found the Dora games to be both challenging and entertaining for kids, particularly a game where the player must line up shapes in order to cross a bridge and one where they must follow a sequence of numbers in order to find a path across a river. --Charlie Williams

My daughter likes it...  (Rating: 5 out of 5)

Of all the games for this age range that my daughter has, this is one of her favorites. Some of the graphics on these games are kind of crappy, this one is pretty good and like I said she likes it...

Easy to understand for young children  (Rating: 5 out of 5)

This game is wonderful! My 4yo boy loves it and it's easy enough to play that I don't have to sit next to him to explain how to do every move.

Pretty good game with good skills development, but can get painfully slow after awhile.  (Rating: 4 out of 5)

This game is great in that it teaches shapes, spatial skills, numbers, colors, skill development games, etc. There is a ton of hand holding in the game, as Dora isn't allowed to fall off a cliff or get hurt (compare to Pooh's game). Play is a bit slow also with regard to Dora's movements, especially compared to the Pooh Bear game, which is a bit more fast paced, although both are within the same age range. Thus, this game can be a bit painful for grownups while they are teaching their kids how to play it.

This game also emphasizes spanish translations a bit too much for colors, numbers, verbs, etc. which may or may not interest you as a parent. When I say too much, most times the words aren't even spoken in English, only Spanish. I think early on, focus/mastery should be on English rather than Spanish added into the mix, so it's a downpoint for me. This cartridge is probably more 3-5 rather than 4-6, but it teaches a lot, especially compared to Cars and Wiggles. This smartridge is definitely more learning game and less video game.

Great game!!!  (Rating: 5 out of 5)

I just purchased this game for my 3-1/2 year daughter. She is a Dora fan, so she wanted to play it immediately. She sat there and played the entire game in one sitting. Basically, Dora and Boots are on an adventure to help find pieces for Tico's aircraft. Swiper makes his regular appearances as well. I had to help her understand how to do something in a couple of places, but otherwise it was right at her level. She knows her numbers and colors and she was very excited that she was able to progress. The best part about the game, in my opinion, is that your little one will be able to make jumps without any problem. The Pooh game is her other favorite (and another great game), but she needs help in making some of the jumps. In the Dora game, Dora won't fall if you keep walking when you are supposed to jump - she just leans over on his tippie toes like she is going to fall. My daughter was especially proud of the fact that she was able to jump on the swinging vines. I highly recommend this game!!

Not bad!  (Rating: 4 out of 5)

I bought this for my 5yo daughter. It's actually one of the better Dora games I've seen. Runs very similarly to the television show. Offers a little bit more Spanish than the show does. It's probably a tad on the 'easy' side for its age group though as my daughter didn't find it particularly difficult, but that didn't phase her interest any. It's now become one of her favorites V Smile games!
