There are quite a few shows on Netflix from the past that I would like to share with my children! Two of my most favourite shows from when I was a kid are:
I LOVED The Facts of Life. I remember feeling like I could relate to each of the girls for a different reason and I always felt a bit rebellious watching this show, likely because these girls were a bit older than me and therefore into things that I wasn’t quite ready for because in my elementary school years, I was quite the goody goody and those rebellious thoughts never once entered my mind. I still have the theme song from this show in my head like it was yesterday!
Willis was the cutest little kid ever and I absolutely loved watching him in this show as a kid.
I love how there is a such a wide variety of shows and movies on Netflix including options from the past.
I am a member of the Netflix Stream Team and as such, I receive special perks along the way. All opinions are my own.
I’d want my kids to watch “Boy Meets World”. I loved it oh so much, and will STILL stop and watch some repeats on ABC Spark these days if I happen to catch them…. can’t help it, it was such an important show for our childhood, haha.
Don’t laugh at me, but I’ve never watched this show! What age group would you feel it is appropriate for? I trust your judgement.
Omg my gosh, I loved Different Strokes! I would like my kids to watch the old Degrassi High! I feel like it had a lot of great life lessons for pre-teens and teens.
Once my daughter is a bit older, I will definitely introduce her to Degrassi High!
I used to watch Different Strokes – it is great. I loved Boy Meets World. I think I was about 10 when I started watching it- but i can’t remember. Well it does deal with ‘older’ themes- it is quite tame compared to most tween shows. I think there is a lot you can learn from it.
I find many of the shows for tweens contain content (and SASSY ATTITUDE) that I’m not comfortable with for my daughter! I will have to try out Boy Meets World!
I was such a huge Different Strokes and The Facts of Life fan! They don’t make shows like that anymore.
