In a groundbreaking milestone for the world of children’s television, the pint-size pioneer ‘Dora the Explorer’ is celebrating her 25th anniversary this year.

The beloved cartoon character, known for her catchy theme song and infectious curiosity, has been a staple in the lives of countless kids around the globe. From exploring the jungles of South America to braving the depths of the ocean, Dora has taught children valuable lessons about friendship, problem-solving, and the importance of always carrying a spare pair of socks.
To commemorate this momentous occasion, a special anniversary episode is set to air next month, featuring a guest appearance by none other than Swiper the Fox.

Dora herself, voiced by the talented actress Kathleen Herles, expressed her gratitude to fans for their unwavering support over the years. In a statement released to the press, Dora said, “It’s been an incredible journey exploring the world with all of you. Here’s to many more adventures to come!”
In honor of the occasion, a Dora-themed amusement park is also in the works, with rides such as the “Swiper’s Swirl” and the “Map Maze” sure to delight fans of all ages. Diego Marquez, Dora’s cousin and fellow explorer, couldn’t contain his excitement about the park, exclaiming, “I can’t wait to ride the Backpack Blast roller coaster! It’s going to be wild!”
