I’m a compensated member of the Netflix Stream Team.
I don’t know about you, but my kids get along pretty well *leans in close and whispers* most of the time. They could be having a fabulous day playing well together, but the second baths are taken, TVs are turned on, and Netflix is fired up, things can go sideways in a HEARTBEAT. One wants to watch King Julian when the other wants to watch LEGO Friends. It’s times like these, when I’m contemplating tearing my hair out strand-by-strand, that I’m glad Netflix created Netflix Sibling Playlists to honor National Siblings Day (April 10th). Kids can choose from playlists such as the “Tale of Two Distant Ages” to “Sugar and Spice” and more, offering something for every sibling squad to watch and enjoy together. Let’s end sibling rivalry for good! Hoo-freaking-ray, baby!

Still Can’t Decide?
Since we know getting a collective answer can be easier said than done, Netflix has created an iconic fortune teller to help your family decide what to watch next. Even better, create your own with your family’s favorites!
How to play:
1. Pick a color on the top four flaps and spell out the letters (e.g. B-L-U-E) while alternating a pinching and pulling motion with the teller to reveal a set of four numbers.
2. Pick a number and move the fortune teller the corresponding number of times, revealing a second set of four numbers.
3. Choose a genre and open the flap to reveal what’s up next on Netflix.
