If you want to see any possible sightings for Spongebob or Dora, you're gonna have to go to Universal Studios. Spongebob and Dora are not affiliated with Disney, so you will not find them there.
There IS a meet and greet with Spongebob at Universal Studios though - if they REALLY want to see him! Right after the Jimmy Neutron ride/show you're let out into an interactive area and Spongebob is there with the ubiquitous photo op! You can bypass the show and just go in the gift shop next to JN - it's behind it.
Those are NICKOLODEON characters. Not disney. Disney has the playhouse disney characters like Rolie Polie Olie, Bear and the big Blue house, the book of pooh, and Stanley at Playhouse disneylive on stage @ MGM studios.
I'm not sure when your friend is going and where they might be staying, but if it is not until next year, the Holiday Inn is doing Nickelodeon themed hotel rooms.
Thank you for the postive responses. Sorry I posted this on the wrong board but I did not know which studio had these characters. My kids are too old for Dora and Spongebob. My friend stated she was going to Disney and that her daughter loved these characters and wanted to know where she could see them. I wasn't aware they are not Disney and I don't think she was either. I'll give her the information from the Universal board. Most of you replied nicely which I appreciate as I get alot of info from these boards.
One person should be careful how they reply and not put a scowling face on it. Not everyone knows everything.
