Dora the Explorer: Dora’s Enchanted Forest Adventures Episode Synopses:
Tale of the Unicorn King
All of the forest animals choose Unicornio as the King of the Enchanted Forest. The animals think Unicornio is kind, smart, brave and strong but Unicornio is shy and doesn’t think he’s any of those things. Dora and Boots must prove to Unicornio that he can be King.
The Secret of Atlantis
Dora and Boots are at the beach when they see Diego riding in on a dolphin. He just went on an undersea adventure and found the legendary lost continent of Atlantis where he finds out why it disappeared from the Earth. Diego recruits Dora, Boots and King Unicornio to help him end an ancient feud between unicorns and dragons as it’s the only way to make Atlantis rise.
Dora Saves King Unicornio (Double-Length Episode)
Dora and Boots are playing in the leaves on an autumn day and Little Rabbit from the Enchanted Forest arrives to ask for their help. When King Unicornio returned from Atlantis to the Enchanted Forest, Owl didn’t want to give back the king’s crown, so he tricks Unicornio. If Unicornio doesn’t plug up the dam with his horn, the whole forest will flood! Meanwhile, Owl is still ruling over the Enchanted Forest and making new rules like banning scarecrows, gnomes and fairies from the forest. Dora and Boots set out to rescue Unicornio from the Owl.
Our thoughts:
I know I’ve said this before, but I’m pretty sure that my four year old son has a little crush on Dora. Dora is bilingual and uses her knowledge of English and Spanish to help her and her best friend, Boots the monkey, to solve riddles and puzzles. I love that she throws some Spanish into the cartoon and I’ve heard my son counting in Spanish – and I know he picked it up while watching an episode of Dora the Explorer. Not ony does Dora introduce Spanish words and problem solving skills to the little ones, but she uses counting and the alphabet along the way, too.
