³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ

Due to my daughter being too ill to go to nursery this morning I spent the best part of this morning and early afternoon on the sofa with her watching her "Dora The Explorer" Box set. That's right your boy Ace in front of the TV watching over 5 and a half hours of Dora!
My Daughter is a big fan of Dora but I have never really taken time out to see what all the hype was about.

If you don't know about Dora she's basically a bi-lingual little girl who travels the world claiming she's trying to find something or help someone. I'm not CONVINCED. To make it worst her travelling companion is a talking monkey called Boots.

While watching it for a couple of hours I had loads of questions. Unfortunately my Daughter (eyes fixed to the screen) couldn't answer them.

How old is Dora??
How can she be allowed to Travel the world without her parents??
In one episode her father coaches her baseball team
Why does her dad care more about baseball than his runaway daughter that talks to wild animals?
Is he Really her Dad??
Is Diego really Dora's cousin or her Boyfriend?
Since when do monkeys wear boots??
If he only wears one item of clothing does that mean he's naked??
How can Dora go from country to country without a passport?
Why doesn't Dora get angry with Swiper?
Where's the lesson that thieves get punished?
Why Cant Dora speak French??
Why does she encourage young kids to shout Spanish words at the telly?
Is she making youngsters believe she actually lives inside the telly??

If you have any answers to my questions I'd really appreciate them. Leave them in the comments section.

UPDATE
We managed to get Nickelodeon on the phone during Fridays show. Heres what they had to say for themselves.
