A Netflix #StreamTeam Monthly Extra Announcement

Beat Bugs - Netflix for Kids

Yesterday my email inbox was pinging like crazy with announcements from Netflix. I received no less than six emails with press release information about release date, upcoming shows and more. As part of the Netflix #StreamTeam I’m happy to bring you all sorts of Netflix related information. But rather than a whole bunch of separate posts about what is coming, when things are being released and new things just announced, I’ll do a sport of roundup announcement for you this time around.

For the Younger Kids

Ignite Your Child’s Imagination and Intelligence with these Back to School Shows


Photo-A-Day #3791

The Summer is coming to a close (I can’t tell because the heat and humidity is getting unbearable, and for the record I LOVE the snow) and it is time for the kids to head back to school. Eva will be heading to second grade and Andrew into a twice a week program for 3 year olds. I won’t be getting much of a break for personal time except for those 5 hours weekly. But, this isn’t about me, this is about the kids and all the learning they will be doing while at school or more importantly how Netflix has some great shows to ignite their imagination and passion for learning. Yes, shows on Netflix. Netflix has a bunch of great shows for Science, Technology, Arts, Engineering and Math (S.T.E.A.M if you didn’t catch that). And two great new shows debuted this month (Project MC2 and DinoTrux) and as luck would have it, one was perfect for Andrew and the other for Eva. Although, Eva does like DinoTrux as much as Andrew.
