Dora the Explorer - Dora's Christmas! (DVD, 2004, Checkpoint)

With her cheerful nature, inquiring mind, and colorful fashion sense, Nickelodeon's adorable bilingual heroine DORA THE EXPLORER has charmed both pre-school-age children and their parents alike. Designed to simulate a computer game, the animated series follows the cute little Latina girl, her monkey pal Boots, and their helpful cohorts Map and Backpack as they set out on problem-solving adventures that encourage interaction and physical activity while teaching simple concepts such as counting, logic skills, and basic Spanish. This volume includes two fun-filled, holiday-themed episodes: in "A Present for Santa," Dora and Boots travel to the North Pole on a special Christmas mission; and in "Rapido, Tico," the winsome duo rescue Boots' toy firetruck from the top of Snowy Mountain.
