Dora The Explorer Grows Up…She’s Now A Tween

Dora the Explorer was one of my son’s favorites growing up and I enjoyed it because then I got to learn a bit of Spanish a long the way. A language I always wanted to learn. And now that he’s grown out of it, he doesn’t watch it.

The creators of Dora have come up with a solution for the older girls that aren’t watching the show. They will be unveiling the tween Dora. They say this about the new Dora…

As tweenage Dora, our heroine has moved to the big city, attends middle school and has a whole new fashionable look. What’s more, she now has a rich online world in which girls can explore, play games, customize, and most importantly solve mysteries with Dora and her new friends. Adding to the play value, Dora’s online world is interactive with the new doll line.

I’m not sure as a parent I would be into buying this for my daughter. I think that they had something with Dora being little. Parents are making a big deal about this tween Dora sending the wrong impression. Let’s hope it’s true when they say that she won’t look like a Bratz dool.

  1. I’m not digging this new Dora idea. There’s a way they could do that right but I have a feeling that the Dora little girls can actually look up to is just going to turn into another Bratz clone.
