There are plenty of popular Netflix series in Spanish that kids love. Here is a list of Spanish Shows on Netflix for young kids:

1. Yohoo Al Rescate

This is hands-down my 2 and a healf year old’s favorite show. The song is stuck in my head in a proverbial loop! The plot centers around a group of friends who go to different places and help other furry friends. It’s just the right speed for the youngest!

2. Pocoyo

Set in a 3D space with a plain background, it is about a 4 year old name Pocoyo and his friends. The narrator explicitly speaks to the audience and the characters. It is very simple design and use of language are great for young learners.

This show with Christian themes is really funny and entertaining for young children. The Spanish version is very well done and children of a wide range of ages find it enjoyable.

4. Porroro

5. Kazoops

Remember this one from when you were little? Well, both the classic and new versions are available on Netflix. It’s an extremely fun way to learn about science and you can even find some great curriculum to go along with it online!

7. Masha and The Bear

Originally in Russian, this cute series is available in Spanish and boy, are my kiddos glad. It’s simple language make it enjoyable even for beginners and no matter what language it’s in, my girls will just laugh and laugh with this one.

8. Tinkerbell

There is a whole series of Tinkerbell movies that introduce children to the magical world of Pixie Hollow, where fairies come from. The Spanish translation is really nice and this is one children will enjoy!

10. Go, Live Your Own Way  (Vive a tú manera)

I must admit that I watched this one recently, all on my own. Can’t even use my girls as an excuse.

He gets a second chance by taking on the personal of an infante impersonator, Pedro Guadalupe Ramos. Only by straightening Ramos’ life out, will he get a chance to go to heaven. Lighthearted comedy that is definitely worth the watch!

13. Siempre Bruja

Carmen Eguiluz is accused of witchcraft and is set to burn at the stake according to in 1646 colonial Colombia. She then time-travels to 2019.

It is definitely a point of departure for some great discussions, however.
