Netflix Is Finishing Out the Year Strong — See Which Kids' Movies Are Coming in December!

Although there are plenty of amazing movies for kids on Netflix already, each month we look forward to the fresh titles that will be added to the service — whether they are brand new or make us feel all of the nostalgia. In 2020, Netflix started us off with a nostalgic batch of family movies and a few new hits, and we can't wait to see what else is in store.

Read ahead to see which movies will be added to Netflix for kids and families in the coming month, and bookmark this page to see what'll be new each month! (And if Disney is your jam, see which Disney movies are still on Netflix before they make the switch over to Disney+.)
