Dora the Explorer: Dora’s Rescue in Mermaid Kingdom Episode Synopses:
Dora’s Rescue in Mermaid Kingdom
Dora and Boots are at the beach when they find Maribel, a little lost mermaid, who needs to get back to her mommy (voiced by Thalia) in the Mermaid Kingdom. Dora uses her mermaid charm necklace to transform into a mermaid and turn Boots into a sea monkey. Together the three set off on an underwater adventure through the octopus’s garden, past the ocean rocks to Mermaid Cove where Maribel will have to sing to bring all the mermaids together so she can find her mommy.
Benny the Castaway
Dora and Boots are getting ready to have a beach picnic with all of their friends when suddenly a bottle rolls in with a wave. Inside the bottle, Dora and Boots find a note from Benny. His balloon ran out of air on the way to the picnic and he’s stuck on Coconut Island. It’s Dora and Boots to the rescue!
Dora’s Moonlight Adventure
Dora’s taking care of Abuela’s three kitties: Pico, Mónica and Lucky. At Dora’s house, Mami reads Dora and the kitties a story and they all cuddle around their ball of string and fall asleep. When the ball of string rolls out the window and Lucky chases after it, the kitties wake Dora up so she can help find Lucky.
My two daughters and even my 3-year-old son were so excited to watch Dora the Explorer: Dora’s Rescue in Mermaid Kingdom! They didn’t get a chance to see it when it was on television, so they were thrilled to finally be able to watch it. Right when they saw the case they knew what it was about from the commercials a few months ago. Plus, their other favorite Dora movie is “Dora Saves the Mermaids” so another Dora episode about Mermaids was right up their alley. They really enjoyed all the episodes but their favorite ended up being the last one called Dora’s Moonlight Adventure. Both of my daughters love kitties and think they are the cutest things ever so this episode about rescuing one of them was a perfect fit. I think they really liked how different it was because they were exploring at night instead of during the day. The kitties were adorable too! I would recommend Dora the Explorer: Dora’s Rescue in Mermaid Kingdom DVD to any girl or boy who loves Dora!
Dora the Explorer: Dora’s Rescue in Mermaid Kingdom DVD is available today, June 26th on Amazon or your other favorite retailer. It is 69 minutes long and retails for $16.99.
