**Full Disclosure: As a member of the Stream Team, I was provided a Netflix subscription and promotional items. All opinions are my own.
School is out for the summer but my goal is to keep the boys engaged so they never stop learning. I don’t have to try hard, though, because they pick up everything they watch or hear which makes my job easy. I can foster learning in my kids just by letting them watch certain Netflix shows!
I encourage my boys to watch shows that are both age-appropriate and shows that foster learning. The list I’ve compiled (below) are shows that I have or would allow my 7 and 12 year old kids to watch.
Netflix Shows that Foster Learning in Kids:
- Sid the Science Kid
- Bill Nye the Science Guy
- 72 Cutest Animals
- 72 Dangerous Animals (Australia)
- Mysteries of the Unseen World
- Tales of Irish Castles
- Animal Homes
- Tiger: Spy in the Jungle
- Nature: Animal Misfits
- Monumental Mysteries Collection
- Bears: Spy in the Woods
- Mission Blue
- Worst Cooks in America
If you have young children, I suggest the new Netflix original Word Party! The show follows Kip, Franny, Lulu and Bailey as they learn new words that will help their vocabulary grow. Word Party allows for parents to watch along with their little ones while fostering a fun and easy learning environment for everyone and encouraged to celebrate their Word Party afterwards with the whole gang.
You never know when you’ll learn something new. I recently learned that roasted crickets have a nutty flavor while watching Cupcake Wars!
