With Dora the Explorer™, even returning library books is an adventure! Straight from Nick Jr.'s #1 preschool show, it's Dora the Explorer™! Now kids can go beyond just watching the show to taking part in the story and interacting with Dora. In Backpack Adventure, Dora receives a new Backpack from her parents and sets off to return her library books. Along the way, Dora, her best friend Boots and her friends Backpack and Map need help to solve problems, figure out puzzles and play games. Kids will also meet Grumpy Old Troll, Isa the iguana, Benny the bull, Tico the squirrel and of course that sneaky fox, Swiper! Dora the Explorer: Backpack Adventure adopts the look and feel of the television show but puts kids in control of the on-screen action.

Dora the Explorer from the popular Nick Jr TV show is on CD-ROM for some interactive fun.

Kids 3+ join Dora and Boots the monkey as they return Dora's books to the library. Backpack has everything they need, but they need a little help to figure out what to do. There are plenty of stops along the way with games to play and puzzles to solve.

Players first help Dora find the books in her room. Kids choose books by color in both English and Spanish. Level one asks kids to find the right color in English. Dora will say the Spanish word when the correct book is chosen. Level three challenges children to find the correct book by the color in Spanish.

Along the path to the library kids must help Isa in her garden, fill in shapes and complete patterns at the Troll's Bridge, find a path up the big rock by identifying numbers in English and Spanish and more. Players must keep an eye out for Swiper, the sneaky fox that tries to swipe things.

Kids can play the game in two modes. Adventure Mode follows a story and children complete activities in order. In Freeplay Mode children can choose any game and play as many times as they like.

Preschoolers learn following directions, problem solving, number recognition and matching, shape recognition, pattern completion, color recognition, memory skills, classification, Spanish vocabulary and mouse skills.

Kids love Dora the Explorer on TV and they are going to really love interacting with Dora, Boots and all her animal friends.
