You can even enter a kids friendly mode in the Netflix app and your kids won't see adult shows or content they shouldn't. You can easily search through hundreds of kid friendly programs and start streaming them instantly wherever you're connected to the internet. You'll need a Netflix subscription to do so but for many, the $8 a month is more than worth the entertainment it can provide not only for your kids, but for you too.</p> <p>If you're traveling in a car where you will have an active data connection, Netflix is a must have. Just remember a lot of airlines will block streaming video, so if you're flying, it may not be the best choice.</p> <ul><li>Free with subscription - <a href="
