Sydney's Third Birthday (Dora the Explorer)

Some people say sometimes less is more.  Apparently I don't say that.  This one has 9 motors (pushing 15 characters), a train (carrying Dora),  and a mp3 player with speaker.  The goal was to put our daughters favorite characters from the show.  You will see:

Dora

Boots

Stars

The second goal was also that the viewer would see something new each time they passed by the cake.  The cake is the grass underneath everything.  Not much actual cake decoration here.  Since we are not great decorators we make up with moving flare :).  The cake is set up so that Dora moves around the cake seeing each of the characters she knows.  The party consists of Boots, Papi, Mami, Diego, Tico and Isa standing around Sydney's cake.  Next to the party, on either side, Swiper alternately pops out of the bushes.  The Chocolate Tree dances in the background and Baby Jaguar hops up and down on the waterfall.  The crocodiles pop out of the water on Crocodile Lake.  The Grumpy Old Troll does his dance in front of his bridge.  Baby dino rocks his head and tail back and forth to the music.  Benny the Bull flies above all in his balloon fixed with sticky tape.  The Gooey Geyser shooting out bouncy balls sets in the center.  You may also notice 8 stars hidden around the cake.
