Jakks Dora the Explorer TV Game

I think the age requirement is ages 5 and up. Well, I bought this for my 2 year old and she loves it. It's very simple and easy for her to use. It only requires simple button pushing and a little movement from Map (joystick). The games are great. Very simple but there really is no losing except maybe when you're playing against Swiper. But that happens rarely. The game makes things easier to have a better chance at winning. For example, the rowing boat race. You just gotta push buttons to jump over frogs. At the end, even if Swiper is ahead, his boat slows down, giving you a chance to catch up and take the win. In the matching game, if you can't find a match after several tries, it takes away 2 cards to make it easier. If you still can't find a match, it'll take 2 more cards away. My 2 year old just picks any card but after several tries and less cards, eventually she'll get a pair. As for the educational value. I only gave it 3 stars. Just for the numbers being said in spanish on the board game as you move up to 4 paces and for the memory matching game. Overall, I think a 2 year old would enjoy it especially being a Dora fan. My 5 year old finds it way too easy but still likes playing because of rarely losing.

I bought it for my 3-year old daughter who was excited to play at first but after trying different games for a few minutes she said it was boring and never wanted to play again. I checked it myself and it is extremely primitive and boring.

Great game for little kids. This is perfect for my for year old who wants to play video games like get big sister. This gives her a chance and is fun and educational.

Used item has a damaged battery slot and have a loose piece on the remote control.

The game is ok, my daughter doesnt really care for it, she gets board with it within a few min. Also when we recived it, it looked like it was used (dirty)and i could have sworn i read it was new.

The controller is incredibly sturdy, and will stand the test of your child. Including your child's favorite characters from the show, (all the way from Isa to Diego!!) this plug-and-play consists of 4 mini-games played board game style. The games involve a balloon action stage, a digging stage, and a canoe stage all involving beating Swiper Fox, as well as shape puzzles. Frantic fun for your toddler! It is a GREAT game for 2-4 year olds, and with such a short learning curve (courtesy of Dora, naturally), they'll be recognizing hexagons in no time!

I bought this for my 3 year old Granddaughter along with a Care Bear game and she absolutely loves them both. They keep her amused and she talks along with them. Once she got a handle on how to use the sticks she was off and running. I would definitely recommend this toy.
