Customer Reviews:

My daughter’s just over 3, but she loves the new Dora! I like the way that the doll doesn’t just interact with the on-screen world, but she seems to take the world with her when we disconnect her from the computer! I hate how most electronic toys say the same thing over and over and over–but this one is different. When you unplug her from the computer, she remembers the mystery that you just solved with her, and talks about it when you play away from the computer. It seems to encourage imaginative play AWAY from the computer–I love that–and the things the doll says are always changing. Big bonus.

It’s fun connected to the computer too; there are tons of dressup games (DD loves those) and it’s fun to change the jewelry, eyes and hair on the computer and then watch the doll change to match. We play the games and the mysteries together, but I’m sure older kids could do it alone.
Just one thing to be aware of–there is some “download” time you have to be ready for when you first install the software, so be ready to let your daughter play with the doll away from the computer for about 20 minutes or so while you get everything set up.
