Editorial Reviews
Ask anyone whos ever set foot in a kitchen and attempted to prepare a meal: cooking can be an adventure. So it stands to reason that Dora the Explorer, everyones favorite bilingual adventurer, has an adventurous kitchen. This entertaining and comprehensive set features a stove, sink, range, musical radio, whirring blender and refrigerator to store items not in use. 28 different food and utensil items are also included. There are also some delightful features not found in regular kitchens including a touch screen that plays out food-based excursions and challenges young chefs to take part (find the tomatoes in the garden for instance). This is an exciting twist on the traditional play kitchen and is a great way to help kids learn and possibly encourage a love of cooking. --Charlie Williams

Reader Reviews
Durability: Fun: Educational: My three year old received this for her birthday and she absolutely loves it (barely stops cooking long enough to eat real food and sleep, lol). BUT! Mommy is a little disappointed. I heard Dora and Map take you on a cooking adventure to find ingredients. I'm not sure I'd call it an "adventure". For instance, one recipe card is for Strawberry Pancakes. You insert the card into Map and all Dora says is, "Let's make strawberry pancakes. Let's go on an adventure to find ingredients. We need strawberries (then also says the Spanish word for strawberries), butter (then Spanish word for butter), and eggs (and Spanish word for eggs).". That's it. No, now mix the ingredients and pour into the pan, nothing. No, first you go over strawberry mountain to get the strawberries, lol. I was just expecting more than 3 ingredients to be mentioned for each recipe card. Another thing I don't like is the phone. You can pick the phone up and it rings. You talk to Diego, Boots, and Abuela. But NO DORA!?!? The blender makes a few different sounds, including the normal blender sounds, then Dora also tells you it's a blender (using both English and Spanish). Same with the radio. That's all the interaction you get with the kitchen. Overall the kitchen is durable. The fridge and oven doors stay shut and aren't flimsy. There are two picture frames on the fridge door and you can insert your own pictures into the frames. It was not difficult to assemble either. Everything just snaps into place and then screws are inserted to hold it in place. It took me about 45 minutes with several interuptions from my three year old to put this kitchen together. But my daughter is happy, and that makes me happy. She has never played with a kitchen with hundreds of sounds, so she doesn't realize her Dora kitchen doesn't do everything other kitchens will do. She is very imaginative and uses her own sounds anyways. She is obsessed with Dora (she literally thinks she is Dora) so she is thrilled with this kitchen. I give the kitchen 3 stars from my perspective, but she would give the kitchen more than the 5 stars allowed. ETA: Ok, we've had this kitchen a little longer and I want to correct something. The cooking adventure does involve more. Silly mommy didn't realize it when I wrote this review, but if you press the picture of the ingredient on the map, Dora will say "you can find strawberries at strawberry mountain", etc. Once you press all 3 ingredients Dora will say "now mix the ingredients", "we did it!". Also, there are only FIVE recipe adventures, not seven like they advertise. Finally, we did have to take our first kitchen back to TRU after having it for only 28 days. It stopped working. I replaced the batteries and still, it would only say one or two words then shut off. We've had this second one for about as long and so far so good (keeping my fingers crossed though!). If this one stops working, I WILL be exchanging it for a different kitchen. I'm still disappointed you can't talk to Dora on the phone, that's kind of crazy, it is HER kitchen afterall!
