Before we got married, my husband was a big tv watcher. He couldn’t believe I didn’t have cable or even basic television in my home to watch shows daily. I said “I don’t need those, I have Netflix“. After we got married, he got it. He is now a die hard Netflix fan, and recommends it to everyone.
Netflix currently offers two subscription programs, dvds by mail and on-demand streaming of thousands of shows and movies, and we are a member of both. I pretty much only stream Netflix, because they have so much to offer, including new release movies, popular, currently running tv shows, and (what is usually on our tv) Netflix Kids.
Netflix Kids is special programming just for kids, that runs the range from entertaining to educational (usually both) and is child-friendly. Because Netflix offers the option to view Netflix Kids only, you don’t have to worry about your child accidentally stumbling onto adult movies, and there are so many options that you never even have to think about cluttering your home with dvds again.
And my son watches it all, on tv…
and the iPad…
His favorite shows are Curious George, Pingu, and Thomas and Friends. I personally love Curious George, so each day I take my two sons, snuggle on the couch together, and watch Curious George. It’s very educational: we learn math, about animals, friendships and socializing, and much more. His vocabulary and ability to understand concepts has developed a great deal, and I notice he even uses phrases from the show while interacting with friends.
Netflix has now added new content from Hasbro, Disney Jr, and Cartoon Network (I think my son has watched Car Toons: Mater’s Tall Tales and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse: Road Rally about ten times each already- I have the songs memorized myself). And of course, my younger son is now a fan also. He likes to sing along (as best he can).
Netflix Kids is geared to children 2-12 (selections made with the help of Common Sense Media so parents can decide what is appropriate for their child). The Netflix app to stream is free and easy to use, so no more fighting about what to watch on tv- it’s what you want, right when you want it, on almost any device. Netflix can stream on up to three devices at a time, so if each of my sons and my husband all want to watch a different show, they can (a movie on the computer, Pingu on a tablet, and Curious George on the tv in this house).
What are you watching on TV with your family? Netflix has family favorites from Disney, Disney Jr., Hasbro, Cartoon Network and Dreamworks that are available to stream anytime, anywhere.
And streaming is easier than you think! Download the free app on your iPad, click on the Netflix app on any gaming device, go to the website on your computer – and you’re in business. Check it out here!
