Good streaming TV for children

[InescapableDeath]

My kids loved binge-watching some TV in the last lockdown. And by that, I just mean getting their teeth into some tele on bad weather days in between schoolwork! Mostly...

They liked The Worst Witch (iPlayer), The Inbestigators (Netflix), Round the Twist (Amazon), Mallory Towers (iPlayer), A Series of Unfortunate Events (Netflix), Ghostwriter (Apple), The Mandalorian (Disney!), The Secret Life of Boys (iPlayer).

Kids are 10ds and 6dd and viewing as you can see is mostly at the 10yr old level (I know I know). They like reasonable quality, compelling tv (who doesn't). So what do they watch next? I can't bear listening to them argue about Minecraft yet again... I see there's a bunch of Tracy Beaker related stuff on iPlayer but I haven't heard anything good about it. I don't think they'd watch The Next Step and don't seem to be into vampire drama.

Once upon a time on Netflix. I think there are 6 or 7 series, so should keep them going a while!

I'd say Once Upon A Time is too old for them. It's definitely aimed at adults.

Horrible Histories (Netflix)- the songs are quite catchy
Lost in Oz (Amazon)
Danger Mouse (netflix)

They never seem to get into cartoons as much but I might try Lost in Oz again as I'm sure we liked the pilot ages ago. Watching Horrible Histories right now!

Mine are more into real life stuff, like Steve Backshalls Expedition on uktv and deadly 60, Dengineers, the Planets, wildlife docs by the million on BBC, and weather docs on YouTube. There's one with Richard Hammond about how weather works (or some such) on YouTube.

They have binged How to train your dragon osver Christmas though.

Any more ideas? They are currently pulling each other around the living room by their feet (online learning starts tomorrow)

If you have prime just add magic is very good.
They might also like wolfblood which is on iplayer.

9yo DS has lived watching Once over the last year. Might be aimed at fairytale loving adults, but entirely suitable for a younger audience. He follows all the plot twists much better than I do!

@BigSkyLife I was thinking about the 6 year old really, may be a bit scary and complicated in places.

I looked up Once but looks like quality dips as the series goes up and think it may get a little adult for youngest with a bit of bed hopping. A lot goes over their heads but not overly keen!

Just set the age on iPlayer Kids for the youngest and let them loose.
Similar PG setting on Netflix for both but the 6 year old might get scary stuff.
They'll find stuff to watch.

Which platform has bear grylls stuff for kids?

Have done that but they both whinge of 'nothing to waaaatch'

Anyway found on CBBC that MI High (from a few years back) is on there in full. Hoping if any good that it will entertain eldest for a while. There are seven seasons of it on there anyway (and he likes books like 'Spy school').
