	Description:		For 25 years, Dora the Explorer has been more than a cartoon character, she’s been an icon for Hispanic families around the world. With roots in Mexican, Peruvian, and Cuban culture, Dora has inspired generations of children to embrace adventure, curiosity, and the Spanish language with pride. In this episode, toy designer Anna Yi shares how her own multicultural background, and watching her daughter grow up with Dora, helped inspire Spin Master’s newest Dora toy line. We talk about what Dora represents to Hispanic families, why cultural representation in play matters, and how these toys continue Dora’s mission of making kids feel seen, celebrated, and empowered.
