Animal Planet
Kids who are obsessed with animals can easily burn through the cute picture books on your shelves, and the Animal Planet YouTube channel gives them a richer look at real wildlife. Featuring clips and full segments from the Animal Planet network, the channel showcases everything from baby animals and rescue stories to veterinary shows and nature documentaries. Produced by a major animal-focused TV brand, the videos tend to mix entertainment with real information about behavior, habitats, and conservation. Parents like that it’s free and easy to cue up a few short episodes to match a unit on oceans or rainforests, and many kids will happily rewatch favorites. Some content can be intense—medical procedures, predators, or distressed animals—so we recommend using playlists, watching together at first, and sticking to gentler series for younger or sensitive children.
