Unicorns seem to be making a comeback, as the latest DVD offering from the super popular Nick Jr preschool show has not one, not two, but THREE brand spanking never before seen episodes with a unicorn in them! Kids will meet Uniornio in "Tale of the Unicorn King", where all of the forest animals choose the shy Unicornio as the King of the Enchanted Forest. Can Dora and Boots convince Unicornio that he is worthy of this great honor?
In "The Secret of Atlantis", Diego makes an appearance while Dora and Boots are at the beach - he rides in on a dolphin! You'll never believe what Diego found on his latest adventure - the lost continent of Atlantis! He's even found out why the continent has disappeared - can the three of them end an ancient feud and make Atlantic rise once again?
The last story, "Dora Saves King Unicornio", is a double length episode that takes place shortly after "The Secret of Atlantis" episode. King Unicornio has returned back to the forest only to find that Owl doesn't want to give back the crown - and he tricks King Unicornio! Now the dam must be plugged with King Unicornio's horn to stop the beautiful forest from being flooded. While this is going on, Owl has gone psychotic (haha) and is now banning everything from scarecrows to fairies from the forest - and we all know an Enchanted Forest can't be without the fairies! Can Dora and Boots help King Unicornio get his crown back?
Hey, guess what? Nickelodeon has heard our pleas - this DVD comes with a special feature! Included are three music videos: "Atlantis Song", "We Can Be Friends, and "Share My Light". The DVD itself comes with a special slipcover that has a metallic tint to it, and inside the DVD box is a code to receive a bonus one year subscription to Parents magazine.
Dora The Explorer: Explore The Enchanted Forest will be released on DVD this Tuesday, September 13th, 2011. Full screen format, it is not rated, but safe for all ages - it will appeal most to the 2 to 4 crowd. The total running time is 93 minutes long. The suggested retail price is $19.99, but Amazon has it available on pre-order for $13.49 as of this posting. (Netflix users: this title is not currently available, but you can stream other Dora episodes instantly.)
You know the drill: I received a copy of this DVD in order to view it and share my thoughts on it. All opinions are my own.
