KIDS CREATE TASTY TROPICAL TREATS WITH NEW DORA THE EXPLORER™ SNO-CONE MAKER!
Classic play pattern and top pre-school license appeals to kids year round!

New York - February 17, 2008 - A sno-cone maker is a classic toy that magically turns ice-cubes into delicious frozen treats. And when this food activity toy is combined with Dora the Explorer, the star of the #1 pre-school show, this “cool” toy will earn itself a permanent spot on the kitchen shelf.

The Dora the Explorer Sno-Cone Maker (SRP $14.99) is easy to use and easy to clean. Dora the Explorer fans simply drop ice cubes into the Sno-Cone Maker. While pressing on the palm tree plunger, a simple crank of the handle turns ice cubes into shaved ice that pours out of the waterfall into the serving cup!

The Dora the Explorer Sno-Cone Maker comes complete with a Wyler’s sugar free tropical punch flavor packet that is mixed with water to create a delicious fruity taste! The set comes with 5 paper cups, 1 spoon, 1 bottle with cap for mixing the flavor packet, metal grate, hand crank with locking cap and an instruction sheet. The Dora the Explorer Sno-Cone maker is dishwasher safe. Best of all, it’s kid powered and no batteries required. Recommended ages 4 and up.
