My six year old son is a little hesitant to play games with "bad guys" and first thought the flying bats, alligators and crabs were scary. But once we found out he could simply make Dora crawl passed the bats and hop over the others, he was very happy about the game.
This game is just right for young kids because it has some challenges which aren't too difficult; and the automatic saves of each game level gives kids the opportunity to play the various levels over at any time. One added bonus about the save codes is that kids can draw the different images for each saved level and input the codes by themselves.
My son did need help occasionally when he had to find certain items, but, overall, he didn't need much help. As my son would say, the game is great fun.

Known character, fun for the beginner

Dora is great. The graphics are very good on GB advance. The story is true to the show. Kids know the characters so they liked it immediately. I bought it for my 5 yr old girl who has never played video games before and she liked it right away. Its a standard side scrolling game that is easy to control. This is a great way to start video gaming as some Nintendo titles can frustrate small childern. My 4 and 6 year old boys like this game also.

Great Easy Game for younger players

My 2 and 4 year olds absolutely love this game. It has just enough skill to test them, yet is easy enough for them to not get frustrated. I cannot wait for the next Dora Game to be released.

simply wonderfull !

Dora the Explorer The Search for Pirate Pig's Treasure
by New Kid is a beautiful and wonderfully imaginative world alone is enough to make the game worth your while, but when you also factor in the game's moving story, memorable characters, and enjoyable puzzles, you get a superb gaming experience.

Polished and alluring, Dora the Explorer raises the bar for what gameboy advance games should be and stands as the first example of a gameboy advance game that we want to play again and again. Quite simply, Dora the Explorer is one of the best games of the year.

Good for beginners

This is the only game my two beginners can play without getting frustrated. I ended up buying a second copy so they wouldn't fight over it.

Excellent Beginner Game!

This game is easy enough for a 3 year old, yet fun enough for even mom and dad. It is challenging for small kids, but not frustratingly so. Even though my 3 year old son was able to finish all the levels within 3 weeks, it continues to be his favorite game.

This game is a nice game to have a for a younger kid

My daughter (4years old) got this game. What i liked about it is that since there really aren't too many games for younger children i figured Dora is for preschoolers. It's a good game. Althought she has a little trouble making the jumps and sometimes gets mada cause she can't,it's part of the game. Video Games are meant to have a challange in them. She is pretty good and now i must say trips in the car are pretty nice :)I would say if you have a younger child that other games might be too hard for them and they would like something of their own for gameboy Dora is for you

Great Kids Game

This is a great starter game for the younger crowd just learning how to play games, as well as those with some experience. Easy controls, fun animations, good story that follows the cartoons theme. A great game for children, there aren't many out there. A+

Excellent game for younger children!

This game is great. It has excellent graphics and is a lot of fun to play. A little challenge for the younger gamer (my son is 5) but not too challenging that it will lose their attention. This game is great for the 1st timer.

Great for the young & older
