Shakira teams up with ‘Dora the Explorer’

Colombian star Shakira sang her song “Todos Juntos” in a special episode of “Dora the Explorer” produced by American cable television channel Nick Jr, reported Colombian newspaper El Espectador Wednesday.

“Dora is an inspiration to children all over the world, and is to me as well. It was an honor to work with Nickelodeon on this episode because education is a cause that is very close to my heart. I want every child to know that through knowledge and education they can embark upon great aventures,” the singer explained about her participation in the project.
