Netflix is already home to thousands of hours of kids content, and next week, the streamer will be repackaging up some of its biggest animation hits into new playlists.
This is one step closer to Netflix entering the world of FAST, which has recently become commonplace in the streaming world. In September 2023, TBIVision posted an article about why FAST channels work particularly well with kids’ content, but Netflix thus far has strayed away from deploying something similar. They did have Netflix Direct in France for a time, but that service has since been discontinued.
What kid’s playlists are coming to Netflix?
All of these new playlists are rated TV-Y7 (suitable for ages seven and up) and will be available globally from September 24th.
