I Learned it on Netflix – #StreamTeam

Justin Time Go

Netflix has been our go to source of entertainment for a while now. I’m a member of the Netflix #StreamTeam and this is a post on their behalf. I wrote one each month around a specific theme and because I write mostly about the kids shows. The theme this month is “I Learned it on Netflix”. There are so many things that the kids have learned from Netflix and the great shows that they are watching. They are watching quite a few of them and are picking up some great information.

Andrew is a huge fan of shows like Justin Time and the new Justin Time Go. I’m not sure if he learned this bit of information from that show or not but one day out of nowhere he busts out the knowledge of being able to tell the difference between Stalagmites and Stalactites. He got very excited when he was describing them as seen in the animated gif below.

The kids both love the ocean and because of that they enjoy Octonauts. They use that knowledge when they are on Cape Cod. They are always telling me new and exciting things that they learned.

Now Eva, she is also learning as much as she can about cooking and baking because she has the the dream of opening her own sweet shoppe someday. So shows like Chef’s Table and Kids Baking Championships.

She sees that kids are able to do amazing things with food and she continues to learn as much as she can. She is also learning more and more about science so she’s excited about shows like ODD SQUAD and Project Mc2. Learning about time zones and gravity and other concepts of Science.

DreamWorks HOME Adventures with Tip & Oh arrives exclusively on Netflix July 29!

HOME Adventures with Tip and Oh on Netflix

Back a couple of months ago I had the unique privilege of traveling to California and touring DreamWorks Animation Studios on behalf of Netflix to preview the first episode of HOME Adventures with Tip & Oh. I am a member of the Netflix StreamTeam and as such receive various compensations for review and promotion of Netflix shows. Opinions are 100% my own.

While I was there I got to preview two upcoming DreamWorks show that would appear on Netflix. We’ve already seen Voltron debut on Netflix in June and the second show is coming July 29th. That show is HOME Adventures with Tip & Oh. This show is what happens after the movie HOME. The Boov now live on Earth and are adjusting to life with humans. Some Boov live among the humans and some up on their spaceship. Int he show we meet all sorts of Boov but we focus on Tip & Oh through the show.

HOME Adventures with Tip and Oh on Netflix

I was able to meet a bunch of people involved in the show including Rachel Crow, who plays Tip. She is a phenomenal singer which is great since there is a lot of music in the show. We had an interview with Rachel in the recording studio where we did voice overs for Voltron. With Rachel we did a funny exercise routine to music from the show.

I also got to meet the hilarious Ron Funches. I love his comedy and he plays a Boov named Sharzod who is a funny scene stealer. The character is wacky and loud, something that Funches is not. He’s soft spoken and funny, not over the top like Sharzod. We had a fun time and got to see the first episode of the show.

what you will notice is that the show is in 2D not a more CGI 3D look like the movie. You may also notice a lot of different textures and colors. They explained to us that they modeled the show’s look after some famous children’s book artists. I cannot remember their names but they used textures in their artwork. The show has that same sort of feel. Take a look at the trailer and be sure to tune in on July 29th when season one debuts.
