Dora the Explorer: Dora Saves the Snow Princess (Wii, 2008)

I bought this for my 3 year old daughter who was able to play other dancing games and the bowling game from the sports pack with no help from us. Unfortunately this game is still a bit too advanced for her age. The way the wii remote is used is a little more advanced than some of the other games. It is turned horizontal and used a little bit more like a game controller pad.

There is a lot of talking going on and a lot of instructions. She didn't get the concept of how to make Dora stop so when we would tell her to go back to something (like a spot you had to stand on then click the button to jump then swing the wii remote over your head to go up) she would end up running back past it again back and fourth we would have to take the remote and do it for her... it was all a bit much for her. My advice would be to wait till your child is older... Unfortunately Dora doesn't appeal to older kids as much as toddlers I was hoping this game would be much more simple like a point and click game.

My 4 year old wanted this so bad because she had the diego safari game and loved it.Thankfully I bought it cheaper on Ebay than through the store,,because she finished it in 1.5 hours..and she is no expert on the wii.She has since played it over a couple times but gets board quick because she has done it all.I guess any Dora fan will love it because they get to help Dora and Boots,I just feel they could have done allot more with the game to keep a 4 year old entertained a bit longer and a game that short should not cost so much money just because it's Dora.She has more fun watching Dad play mario galaxy that by the way takes a very long time to finish for the same amount of money!Dora is a cute game for a very short time.Sure glad I didnt have to pay full price.

My granddaughter is only two and a half so her "wii" skills are limited. However, she enjoys "playing" the game. The movements are simple enough and it holds her attention for a decent amount of time. Glad I made the purchase. It has the favorite "Dora" characters and follows the same format as the show in terms of an adventure.

This Wii game is perfect for our 4 1/2 year old daughter. We were afraid we couldn't find anything age appropriate for her since most Wii games are too complicated and tend to require more parent assistance. This one however is a fabulous game that she can play on her own (or with a friend!). She loves Dora and is fascinated by the truly interactive experience. The smile on my daughter's face alone has been well worth this small investment. Highly recommended for any parent who has a Wii and young children. I would not hesitate to recommend it to any parent with a Wii and a young child.

Very fun game for my 5 year old. She loves it. It is very instruction and gives you step by step but in a creative way. This game gets my child up smiling and motivated to learn and be moving at the same time..Excellent game for a toddler.
