Halloween Costume for Girls - Dora the Explorer

Halloween Costume for Girls - Dora the Explorer Fancy Dress Costume

If your daughter is a really big fan of Dora the Explorer then this would make a wonderful fancy dress costume for HalloweenDora the Explorer is always ready for the next big adventure and with right outfit and accessories your little girl could be transformed into an intrepid explorer ready to discover the delights of trick or treating and foraging for tasty candy treats.

Dora the Explorer Fancy Dress Costume – What Do You Need?
As an explorer who is always on the go, Dora’s clothing is very practical. You can choose to order the complete outfit online or you can look to recreate the style with items of clothing that your daughter may already have hanging up in her closet.
Dora’s costume consists of a pair of bright orange shorts and a hot pink short sleeved t-shirt. On her feet she wears a pair of white sneakers and these are teamed with a pair of yellow frilly topped ankle socks.

Do You Need A Dora Wig?
Dora has very dark straight hair, which is shoulder length and the style features bangs.  If your daughter does not have this type of hair, then it is not a problem.  You can buy a cool looking wig that will sit snugly on her head and completely transform her appearance.

Dora Needs Her Backpack
As a fearless explorer it is very important that Dora has all the things that she needs close to hand.  This is remedied by the very handy backpack that she carries around with her at all times.  If you are going trick or treating then this would be a very useful accessory for your child to have so that she has a place to store all her treats.

A Little Background Info on Dora the Explorer
The character of Dora comes from a very popular television series which first aired in 2000 on the Nickelodeon Channel.  Dora was a 7 year old Latina girl and in each episode we would see her go off and explore a wonderful new place where she would meet new  people or animals and she would offer her assistance if they needed help. She has been seen as a great role model for little girls to look up to and as a positive representation for children from ethnic minorities. 

The show has been updated recently and little Dora has grown up and matured into a pre-teen.  However there is still plenty for little girls to enjoy.  You can purchase a whole selection of Dora Explorer books, DVDs and other accessories too.

Dora the Explorer is a wonderful Halloween costume idea for a little girl who is always on the go.  This would also make a great gift option for children who love to play dress up.
