Everybody knows who Dora the Explorer and Boots are. That's a given since I have so many nieces and nephews. However, I've never had the opportunity to watch a Dora episode until I was looking for good quality shows for my toddler to watch. The life action movie Dora and The Lost City of Gold did catch my attention as a potential great family movie to watch with my son. It did not disappoint... Read on for our review, how to make your own Dora Explorer Kit, free printables and your chance to win your own Blu-ray copy of Dora and the Lost City of Gold!
Dora -quirky, unique girl with an appetite for explorer and boundless positivity.

In Dora and the Lost City of Gold which is now available on Blu-ray, DVD and On Demand from Paramount Home Entertainment, Dora is thrown from actual jungle living to the jungle that is modern city high school. When her parents mysteriously disappear while search for the Lost City of Gold, Dora leads a mismatched group of high schoolers including her previously close cousin, Diego, on a mission to save her parents and of course, make the discovery of a lifetime.

Featuring a cast including Isabela Moner (Dora), Eugenio Derbez, Michael Peña, Eva Longoria, and Danny Trejo, Dora and the Lost City of Gold makes for a fantastic film to enjoy with the family this Thanksgiving holiday.

Yes, Dora is weird but in her strangely always positive and sing-a-long ways, you can't help but like her and the qualities she brings to the table. She sets a great example of integrity, kindness, honestly and looking for the best qualities in people, while igniting watchers' adventurous explorer side. While there are some cliche scenes that you'd expect, the movie is overall funny and an adventure in itself. The movie is rated PG. Check out the trailer below. Random side line -Boots is pretty awesome.
The Digital and Blu-ray releases have a great inclusion of fun-filled bonus features, including:

Bloopers - Take a trip to the wild side with hilarious bloopers of the cast's funniest on-set mishaps.
Deleted and Extended Scenes - Journey deeper into the jungle to find the "lost" scenes not shown in theaters.
All About Dora - Discover how Isabela Moner transformed Dora into a jungle-savvy teenage adventurer for a new generation.
Can You Say Pelicula? - Unlock the mystery of underwater stunts and surviving quicksand with Eugenio Derbez.
Dora In Flower Vision - Explore the movie's playful animated sequence, a treasure trove of nods to Dora's cartoon origins.
Dora’s Jungle House - The adventure continues with this behind-the-scenes tour of Dora's jungle house, part museum, part laboratory, and always a place for family.
