Join Dora the Explorer as she sets off on her first adventure on the Wii gaming console. In Dora the Explorer: Dora Saves the Snow Princess, a mean witch has put a spell on the Magic Snowy Forest and now it is starting to melt. If it isn't stopped, it will melt away to nothing. With help from new friends like the Snow Fairy and everybody's favorites Boots, Swiper and Pirate Piggy, your child embarks along with Dora, on an adventure to find the magic crystal that will return nature's balance, free the Snow Princess and save the beauty of winter from disappearing forever.

Summary: Great game for a 4 year old
Comment: With a little instruction and patience at the beginning, our little girl was playing the game on her own and having a ball. There are excellent reminder cues in the bottom left which tell the player which button should be pressed or what motions to make with the Wii remote. We own Dora's Journey to the Purple Planet for our PS2. She enjoyed that so we thought she would like this Dora Wii game too. We were right but she likes this one much more since the Wii platform is interactive. She has not found the Snow Princess yet, so I'm not sure if the other review where he said the game is "over" is true, but if it's like the Purple Planet...it just means all the adventures are unlocked and she can go back and play her favorites. I will update this review if that's not the case. I would have given 5 stars but I think the price is a little high for a one player game. Other than that, very pleased with our purchase.

Summary: Great Pre-schooler game
Comment: My 5-year-old was at times frustrated with the controls on the Disney Princess game. This game was perfect. She sat down and played it for 2 hours straight and did not get frustrated. An older child would master this fairly quickly, but for the 4-6 year old its super.

Summary: For kids under 4 who have never played Diego!
Comment: If you have ever played Diego's Safari game and your child is 3 or maybe 4 years old you could try this game. It is EXACTLY like the Diego game except its Dora. My 5 year old who loves Dora didn't even want to finish it past 20 minutes because she says "its the same as diego mom its so boring" and it is the same! The screen looks the same, same fuctions, even the appearance is very similar except its in girl colors!

I think the Diego is a great game for smaller kids getting used to the wii, but if youve played it before, this is about 90% exactly like it!

Summary: This game is a lot of fun for a young child
Comment: It's difficult to find a game that young kids can easily play. Fortunately this is one. My daughter had NO problem picking up the controller and playing the game. She actually had FUN with the Wii and we got some use out of it. Great game.
