Isn’t it amazing how technologically advanced our kids are? My 2-year-old toddler knows how to open Netflix on the iPad and start one of his favorite kid shows.
In our family, the kids all earn tickets for doing their chores and for nice acts that they do throughout the week. They can use those tickets to trade in for 30 minute blocks of playing on the iPad or watching a kids’ show.
Almost every single ticket goes to watching a kids show streaming from Netflix.
The kids love watching fun and funny adventures with their favorite characters. And I love that it’s super easy to get family-friendly shows easily and quickly.
Plus, with the new content added recently from Disney Jr., Hasbro and Cartoon Network, there’s no shortage of great shows for the kids to enjoy.
There are so many great shows that we often stream a show from Netflix for Family Movie Nights. It’s the kids’ favorite night of the week. Each weekend, the kids take turns picking out a show for movie night. My toddler son loves to watch shows like Curious George. The girls love Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue and My Little Pony.
On Sunday nights, we usually have dinner and check to make sure everything is ready for school the next morning. Then the kids go up and get into their PJs and grab a favorite stuffed animal or doll. When they come back downstairs for Movie Night, I have the popcorn ready and my husband has the show ready and streaming from Netflix.
One of the favorite snacks is my gourmet popcorn!
Most weekends, we cuddle on the couches and watch a favorite show. For a special treat, my husband will sometimes set up his projector and we’ll watch a streaming show from Netflix out on the back deck or in the Family Room. The kids love it!

We aren’t using Netflix yet but I’ve been thinking about cutting our cable and switching to Netflix. We have family movie night on Saturday nights and it’s so sweet so see our three children all cuddled up on the floor with their blankets while we watch a movie together.

I will def be trying this out if there is no long term contract required! Summer can be so very hot here and since my little niece will be here with the family for about a month this would be great!! It has to be less expensive than my cable which just keeps skyrocketing!

We just got Netflix a few weeks ago and are really enjoying it! I’m not sure what you mean by “streaming”… we watch it on our TV that has a Wii hooked up to it. I wish we could watch it on the other TV too.
