Dorothy the Dinosaur and 4-year-old Isabella Stoner compare their yellow spots as the character from the popular TV show The Wiggles visits a childcare centre at Beach Haven in Auckland.

Dorothy's visit to the Creative Kids Childcare centre yesterday was to promote a national tour - Dorothy the Dinosaur's Dance Party.

The all-singing, all-dancing reptile begins her tour in Timaru on October 17 and ends in Napier on November 3. She will perform at the Bruce Mason Centre in Takapuna, Auckland, on November 1.
