Parents say these are the best shows for tweens and younger teens, and you won't mind sitting down to watch them either!

We're compiling a list of tv shows for 9-12 year olds (and into the early teen years) that are entertaining for bigger kids, but without the mature content that should be reserved for older teens and adults.

Have a good series for tweens on Netflix, Disney+ or another streaming platform to recommend? Add your review below!

If you have a little more time to spare, check out a favorite tween movie or even a family-friendly documentary to watch together.
