My daughter is 13 months old and likes to watch Dora moreso than Diego, probably because she has a Dora doll and recognizes her. However, she dances to the songs on both shows! So they are equal there!!

My kids like Dora The Explorer

While I agree that Dora is aimed toward girls and Diego towards boys... My 5 year old is leaning more towards Diego. They're both great shows. While Dora teaches counting and colours and such, Diego has a little higher educational level with animal and hibitat's, etc., suiting an older child.

My kids both adore Dora and Diego, Dora a bit more, I think, but thanks to a recent episode of Diego, my two-year-old daughter is having a great time trying to say, "Ana the Anaconda". Hey, anyone watching that particular episode find it hard to not comment on what would ACTUALLY likely happen if a person draped a wild anaconda around their neck?! Again, just a thought . I yell at my husband if he makes these smart a** comments out loud.

My daughter doesn't seem to be into Dora! Hooray! It's not like I turn it off when it is one but she just doesn't seem nuts about it. Thank goodness but I am so seriously Dora'd out. Dora is everywhere and I feel slightly smothered by it everytime I go to a store. I find Diego a bit more refreshing at least.

[I]I have a 15 month old son and his favourite is Blues Clues and Dora. When either show comes on, he stops what he is doing and sits down on his couch and doesn't move until the show is over.

Not that Dora, a talking monkey and the convenience of having every topography of climate and geography within a walk's distance is grounded in reality, but I find it odd that the Mexican government is funding two children with ridiculously advanced equipment to rescue animals.

Dang, what I wouldn't give for a Rescue Pack that turns into stinkin' ANYTHING! What the heck material is that thing made out of, anyway?! Do I WANT a kayak made out of burlap, for instance?
Since when does Baby Jaguar actually speak? Not that I'm complaining - could his, "Mreow, mreow" be MORE abrasive?!
Here again, even though we've totally met Diego and Alicia's parents, what the heck are they thinking letting their kids run around in the jungle, unsupervised? If you were a hungry (insert jungle carnivore here) wouldn't you look at a kid like Diego and think, "Yummers! Lunch!" It reminds me of an old Far Side cartoon with the two alligators basking on a beach strewn with tattered clothes, and the one is saying, "No claws, no fur, no anything - just soft and pink!".

my daught LOVES Dora, it's one of the only shows she will actually sit down and watch. It's my favorite too!!!

mickeysue > agreed.

I mean, I'm a huge fan of cartoons, especially anything Hayao Miyazaki pushes out.

But that rescue pack. It reminds me of Wonder Twins. Well, ok, actually it's better than Wonder Twins - those twins were incredibly dumb.

"Form of... a sledgehammer." "Form of.... a paperclip!"

ugh. Even when I was 7 I was shaking my head at those dorks.

Final poke: anyone else driven nuts by how each time they insert their new picture of the animal into their album it automagically puts its left corner into the slot itself?

</rant>

My son likes both,but I see that he likes Dora a bit better!

My 4-year-old daughter loves Dora, but not Diego so much. We have a ton of Dora paraphenalia in my house but my daughter is showing signs of slowing down. Thank God, lol .

I can't tolerate Diego. My son is still young enough to not care and usually reacts more to Dora. I wish more of the Dora toys were geared to boys as well.

My 3 1/2-year-old likes Dora over Diego, probably because he watches Dora more.

My daughter is 3 now and she loves Dora. But Go Diego Go is now more her thing. Dora, sure she still watches it but she really prefers Diego. I think Diego is aimed more for older children as Dora is more aimed at younger.
