Spinoff of the Lower Elementary Books - no Fantasy.

Again, to clarify, no fantasy doesn’t just mean no sci fi types of fantasy. But anything kids may emulate that isn’t safe (heroes for example).

Any ideas? We don’t have Netflix, so either Prime or YouTube Kids (not regular YouTube). Or another App we can install on our Apple TV.

If it’s educational, it’s even better.

Thank you!

See if you can find Animal Planet or National Geographic documentaries on nature.

BBC's Attenborough series is stunning, and he can be quite funny.

I thought of National Geographic. There are even “kids shows” like that, but some scenes talk about / show the animals mating.

My son is too young for that.

And I can’t watch every show/movie from beginning to end to make sure it’s all clean. I want shows I know he can watch.

And can you describe the Attenborough series? I see it’s also nature. Is it geared for young elementary kids? (Age 7)

As a huge sci-fi and fantasy geek, I have to ask...
Why no fantasy?

I explained it in my other thread.

My son has a difficult time differentiating between fantasy and reality. The lines are really blurred in his mind. Until we resolve those issues, I don’t want to make it more difficult for him with those movies.

Makes sense. Maybe Caillou?
