Dora and Boots become Super Spies to prevent Swiper from swiping Isa's cupcakes and Tico's birthday presents in these episodes about espionage!

Preschoolers are always ready to follow the intrepid Dora, and now her missions are even more exciting because they're secret! Children will still pick up Spanish vocabulary and practice problem-solving and counting skills, but they'll do so with the help of Agent Map and super cool Spy Gadgets. They'll call out answers, repeat new words, and do whatever it takes to stop Swiper. Young viewers enjoy exploring with Dora--and that's no secret!
Baby (0-2)
Maybe Young babies may not have the developmental skills yet to follow many of Dora's instructions, but 2-year-olds will eagerly absorb it all. They'll especially enjoy making animal sounds and pedaling their spy bikes at top speed to help Dora accomplish her missions.
Preschool (3-5)
Yes Preschoolers will be awestruck by all of Dora's new Spy Gear, including a super spy boat car that can ride on land and water, rocket sneakers that jump super high, a spy pen that deciphers invisible ink, and a Swiper detector that beeps when the sneaky fox is close. Kids in this age group will love the idea of outfoxing Swiper and will enthusiastically whisper secret passwords and call out warnings in Spanish.
Kids (6-9)
Maybe Most older kids have outgrown Dora, although those on the younger side may be curious enough about her Spy missions to take another look. There's something about that gadgetry that's irresistible at any age (James Bond, anyone?).
Tweens (10-12)
No This DVD is intended for younger children.
