 Great game for a 3 year old. August 27, 2008

1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought a used Leapster and this is one of the many games that came with it. After playing all the games I think this is the most suitable for my 3 year old, he is able to play many of the mini games that come in the cartrige without my help, he also likes Dora a lot. Great educational game.
I guess it depends on the kid February 3, 2008
Risa K. Rosario (Bloomsburg, PA)
Both my kids got L-Max's for Christmas. I bought the Dora Game for my daughter (she's 3) but she wasn't really into. My son on the other hand (4 years) loves this game. It is definitely his favorite. In all they have Dora, Letter Factory, Disney Princesses and Cars. My son likes Dora and Letter Factory, while my daughter enjoys the other two more.
Ava's Dora the Explorer Review December 29, 2007
I am six years old. I like to play games and look for animals with Dora. I play this game a lot. It is one of my favorite games. My other favorites are Kindergarten and Finding Nemo. I think anybody my age would love this game.
 Too Boring March 29, 2007
AngieMe (Davis, CA)
We got this for my sister along with the leapster. She loves Dora so we just HAD to get this. My sister's 6 and maybe she's growing out of Dora because she tired of this game very quickly and so did I. It was too repetitive and not quite as intersting as the Sonic game we also got. So in comparison, Dora was "borrr-ing" as my sister said when she switched to play another game.
So even if you child loves Dora, don't buy this game unless your child is under the age of 6. I think even the game was made special for kids still learning about up and down and counting and not for kids in school. It really itsn't worth it, and not very exciting. Remember to follow the age suggestions when in doubt, that helps. My sister was past the Dora game educational speaking, even if she still loved the character Dora.
 Pleasant Game February 25, 2007

All the reviews I read here warned me of the low-quality of this game as far as learning goes, but encouraged me to get it if my child is obsessed with Dora. Since she is, I did get it, and I have been pleasantly surprised.
I was very surprised to discover that the non L-Max Dora game works with the L-Max, not only in handheld mode, but also when connected to the T.V.. A very happy thing indeed.
Not only does the dora game reinforce the basic Spanish language skills taught in the T.V. show, it expands on them a bit, adding nicely to the SSL vocabulary. The basic educational tasks are very young and immature for the average student, and my 6yo played all of the games on it, completing all of the tasks within a week of intermittent play. Now she gets bored with it easily, only playing it from time to time to get her Dora fix.
