    As a granparent, I LOVE Dora - simple and fun entertainment for kids with absolutely no adult clever winkink (a la Sesame Street or Rug Rats, for examples.) Pure, unadulterated entertainment for children. My grand kids love it and because they do, I do too!
    Thanks for a thoughtful article.
    Viva Dora!..... and No swiping, Swiper!
