Dora Jungle Birthday Invitations (Free & Editable)
The Heart Behind the Design
Let’s start with the invitations. I’ve always believed that invitations are like the teaser trailer to your party. They set the stage and give your guests a sneak peek of the fun to come. But let’s be honest—custom invitations can be ridiculously expensive! That’s why I’m so excited to share these adorable, free Dora jungle-themed birthday invitation templates with you.
These are the very same templates I used for my daughter’s birthday, and they were a huge hit. Designed with love and a little bit of jungle magic, these invitations are easy to customize and print right at home. Plus, with three different designs to choose from, you can pick the one that best suits your party vibe.
Oh, look at this adorable invitation! If you’re planning a jungle-themed adventure for your little explorer’s birthday, this invitation is just perfect! It features none other than the adventurous Dora the Explorer and her trusty sidekick Boots, ready to swing into fun!
“You’re Invited!” The bright and cheerful design is so inviting, with Dora and Boots swinging on vines, just like they do on their wild adventures. I can just hear Dora saying, “Come on, vámonos!” as she invites all her friends to join the fun!
The party details are super clear, too. You can type your party information, so the guests won’t don’t be late or might miss out on the jungle fun! And I love the cute little paw print used instead of a colon—such a playful touch!
The party location will be listed at your son or daughter’s Jungle—how cool is that? I can already imagine the kids running around, pretending to be in the thick of the rainforest, looking for hidden treasures or maybe even a sneaky Swiper! And don’t forget to put the address as it is just generic enough to remind us that with a little imagination, any home can be transformed into a magical jungle.
And let’s not forget that sweet little cake in the corner, decorated with tropical leaves. It’s like a promise of all the yummy treats and goodies the kids are going to enjoy.
Overall, this invitation is like a little burst of sunshine—just like our kids! It’s colorful, fun, and full of that adventurous spirit we love. Plus, who can resist free invitation templates from Drevio? That’s one less thing to worry about, leaving more time for us moms to focus on the party planning—like finding the perfect piñata or coming up with jungle-themed games (I’m thinking a “Swiper, No Swiping!” scavenger hunt). 😄
So, what do you think? Ready to swing into the party planning? 🎉 Let’s make this birthday one that your little sweetheart—and all of their friends—will never forget!

Pro Tips: Making the Invitations Special
If you want to add a personal touch, try slipping a little something extra into each envelope. A small sticker, a tiny map (just like Dora’s!), or even a sprinkle of confetti can make each invitation feel unique. It’s those small details that make your guests feel special before they even arrive at the party.

Turning Your Home into a Jungle Adventure
Budget-Friendly Ideas
You don’t need to hire a professional decorator to create a fantastic Dora-themed environment. With a bit of creativity and some DIY spirit, you can turn your living room, backyard (as shown below), or even the local park into a jungle that Dora herself would love to explore. Think lots of green! Streamers, balloons, and fake/real plants can instantly create that lush jungle feel. I once bought a pack of green tablecloths and used them as a backdrop to create a jungle wall—super cheap and super effective!
DIY Jungle Vines and Trees
One of my favorite DIY projects was making jungle vines out of green crepe paper. You simply twist and hang them around the room or across the ceiling for an instant jungle vibe. And if you’re feeling extra crafty, why not make some trees too? Grab some brown construction paper, roll it up for the trunk, and add green tissue paper leaves at the top. The kids loved it, and it really helped set the scene.
Adding Dora Elements
Of course, it wouldn’t be a Dora party without some Dora elements! You can easily find Dora-themed decorations online or at party stores. But if you’re like me and love a good DIY, print out some Dora images, stick them onto cardboard, and place them around the party area. It’s like having Dora, Boots, and the rest of the gang right there with you on your adventure!
Fun Dora Party Games
When planning a Dora the Explorer birthday party, engaging the kids in fun activities is essential. One activity that’s always a hit and fits perfectly with the theme is a Dora-themed coloring page station. Coloring is not only a fun and creative way to entertain children, but it also ties in seamlessly with the adventurous spirit of Dora the Explorer. Here’s why and how you can incorporate this activity into your party.
How to Set Up a Dora Coloring Page Station:
Choosing the Right Coloring Pages
Start by selecting or printing out a variety of Dora the Explorer coloring pages. You can find free printables online or use the following template that feature Dora and scenes from the show. Aim to have a variety of designs so that children can choose their favorite or try several different pages.
Supplies You’ll Need:
To set up your coloring station, you’ll need plenty of crayons, markers, or colored pencils. You might also include some Dora-themed stickers or stamps to add an extra element of fun. Make sure you have enough supplies for all the kids to use without having to wait too long for their turn.
The Perfect Dora Birthday Cake
“Cake Ideas That Won’t Break the Bank”
Let’s talk cake because no birthday is complete without one! You don’t need a fancy (and pricey) custom cake to wow your guests. With a bit of creativity, you can make an awesome Dora-themed cake right at home. Earlier this year, I made a simple two-tiered cake and decorated it with green frosting, turning it into a jungle scene. I added a few plastic Dora figurines and some edible flowers, and it looked amazing! Unfortunately, I can’t find it in my photo album, but the cake is lowkey like this,
Cupcake Fun
Cupcakes are another great option. They’re easy to make, and kids love them! Plus, they’re super customizable. You can frost them with bright colors—think pinks, purples, and greens—and top them with Dora-themed cupcake toppers. If you’re short on time, you can even buy plain cupcakes from the store and just add your decorations.
Final Thoughts
And there you have it, mom! With these tips and ideas, you’re all set to throw a Dora the Explorer birthday party that’s as fun and adventurous as your little one. From DIY decorations and budget-friendly cakes to engaging games and free invitations, this party is sure to be a hit. Remember, the most important thing is the love and joy you put into it—because that’s what your child will remember most. So go ahead, embrace your inner party planner, and create a day full of memories that will last a lifetime.
