Nickelodeon Favorites: Summer Vacation Synopses:

Dora the Explorer – Baby CrabDora and Boots are having a blast at the beach when all of a sudden they hear a call for help.  A baby crab has gotten stuck in a net on his way to bring his mother a present.  Fortunately, Dora finds a pair of scissors inside Backpack and quickly frees Baby Crab, but he's forgotten which way to go.  Dora and Boots need help to take Baby Crab through the Squishy Squid's Musical Sand Castle, over a mountain of rhythmically Snapping Clams and across the ocean to his mami on Crab Island.

Go, Diego, Go! – Panchita the Prairie DogAt the Rescue Ranch, Diego and Alicia find Panchita, a Mexican Prairie Dog who needs to find a nice grassy prairie for her family.  Diego and Alicia turn Rescue Pack into a wagon and head out with Panchita and her nine brothers and sisters.  At the train tracks, two prairie dogs fall off the wagon and they need help to jump over the train tracks.  Next, at the Dry River Bed, Panchita gets caught on a floating log, but Alicia uses her Rescue Rope to lasso her.  Finally, Panchita and the family make it all the way to the grassy prairie where they make a new underground home.

The Wonder Pets! – Save the Hermit Crab! / Save the DolphinThe Wonder Pets take a break from their vacation in Cancun to help a Hermit Crab who has outgrown his shell.  Afterwards, the Wonder Pets travel to Hawaii to save a Young Dolphin who has gotten caught in a fisherman's net.

Blue's Clues – Blue’s Big Car TripBlue’s Clues is hitting the road!  Blue puts her booster seat in Carmen, an animated talking car, and sets off on a journey.  Along the way, they enjoy the fun of riding in a car: buckling up, singing songs and using the sights out the window to play interactive games.  There are exciting stops along the way and new places – the gas station, the post office, the tollbooth and many more.
