The Dora Christmas Carol DVD comes out soon or is out or I have no idea except that we are watching it today. Ok, so you can purchase it at Amazon.

Dora the Explorer: Dora’s Christmas Carol Adventure

We’ve been listening to Dora’s Christmas CD for a few weeks now and my son has all the songs memorized and now that we have watched the DVD the CD makes sense. All the songs on the CD are from the DVD. It’s crazy but I’m singing the songs all day long now too. Good Grief I just can’t get away from her.

The DVD is very cute and is teaching kids not to swipe. It seems that Swiper has made the naughty list this year and if Dora can’t teach him to stop swiping then he’ll never be good again. So Dora and Swiper travel through time learning to be good for Christmas. My husband and I were actually talking about all the different cartoons that are out there and what we watched and how the cartoon re-makes aren’t as good as the new cartoons like Dora. You know, she is teaching good lessons and helping the world while care bears and my little ponies don’t do that anymore. They are all about themselves, yes they still have moral lessons but it’s not past them. I’m not sure if that makes sense.

My other News is that Lazy Boy and Nickelodeon have teamed up to make furniture for kids staring Dora and Diego. Lea Furniture is putting out Nickelodeon MyRoom. This new collection was developed in cooperation with Nickelodeon/Viacom Consumer Products and will feature characters from shows including Dora the Explorer, Go, Diego, Go!, SpongeBob SquarePants, as well featuring graphics based on the network’s signature Slime.

Parents will find that the Nickelodeon MyRoom furniture supports creativity, independent play and customization, which are all part of kids’ development. The collection addresses these elements in six ways:

· Multi-dimensional, open-ended materials and functionality

· Furnishings that form environments and encourage different kinds of play

· Scalable when size matters

· Personal ownership

· Encouraging independence and independent play

· Play time is OK time
