Doras Christmas Carol Adventure Movie

Doras Christmas Carol Adventure Movie: Growing up, Dora was tops with Isabelle. Everything was about Dora! The Twins are 2 years old now and they are starting to hit that Dora craze and all the memories are coming back to me.

And I’m glad that we still have all of Isabelle’s Dora toys and DVD’s for the Twins to adore. That’s why my girls were thrilled to get Dora the Explorer: Dora’s Christmas Carol Adventure on DVD for review. Those who are familiar with the Dora characters will know all about Swiper.

So what happens when Swiper gets put on the naughty list for swiping, and goes on a mission with the characters to discover the meaning of Christmas? I have to say, this makes for a clever program.

The girls love dancing to the music, looking at all the vibrant colors and now even tries to copy phrases. Great for learning and fun, with some holiday Ho-Ho-Ho for festivity.

The DVD case for Dora the Explorer: Dora’s Christmas Carol Adventure also has a great advent calender. The kids can countdown to Christmas with Dora! As well, the bonus features include 2 music videos, Jingle Bells’ and ‘We wish you a merry Christmas’.

The girls also got the Dora’s Christmas CD, with all the songs from the DVD. One of my girls’ favorite pastimes is to listen to CD’s in my oldest daughters’ room…and dance, and jump on the bed, and make a mess while they go all silly.
This CD made them do all of that, especially with the lively latin beat in all the classic songs. The kids just love it! I’m sure this CD will be played many times in the next couple of months!

    We decorate, bake and watch movies and shows to get in the spirit. We also like to go for walks through the neighborhood looking at the ligh displays people set up.

  3. Amanda says

    We get into the Christmas spirit but setting up our decorations early and buying more as it gets closer to the holiday. Christmas is the best time of year!

    We get in the spirit by decorating the house. But usually the kids start talking non stop about Christmas and presents right after halloween!

  45. Yvonne Gronau says

    Christmas goes starts playing Nov. 1 and we love to drive around as a family to see all the houses decorated for Christmas.

  49. Dianne says

    Our family just loves Christmas so it is not difficult to get in the spirit. We play Christmas music, organize a cookie exchange, make a gingerbread house, and decorate.

  58. Becky says

    We love to listen to Christmas songs and read Christmas stories. In fact, this year I am really excited because I ran across a book titled, “Santa & The Little Teddy Bear” by Peter John Lucking, which is an original unique blend of tale, carols, music, song, and beautiful illustrations. It is more than just a picture book. I can not wait for the Christmas Season to begin!

  59. Addison K.A.T. says

  64. Jessica P says

    I love fall because not only does our florida weather cool down but its like the dinner salad before the steak and lobster dinner which is Christmas. We love to do a countown to decorate, my 4 year old thinks its cool to count down to take all the fall down and put lights and the tree up so that usually starts the first of November. There is always Christmas music playing some fresh cookies bakes and we spend the whole day after Thanksgiving getting our home ready for the Christmas celebration!

  78. Donna says

    I bake Christmas cookies for all of our neighbors and friends. It usually doesn’t feel like christmas to me until the baking starts.

  84. Rebecca says

    Traditional my husband and I set up our tree and decorate the outside and enjoy a glass of wine or two while doing it. But now that I have twin toddlers I’m not sure what will happen..maybe a mad rush to get the decor up for the token pics and then pack it all away. I think we need a new tradition!

  86. Kristine J. says

  139. Chelsey says

Christmas starts slowly as gifts are purchased here and there.. It REALLY starts when we put up our tree, decorate the house, and start baking cookies! This year our son will really actually NOTICE something is going on – so I am really excited to start some wonderful traditions @ home this year!
