Homeschooling with Netflix | Nature Study - Raising Lifelong Learners

It’s no secret that we love Netflix, and use it to supplement our kids’ learning often. We use it to help teach character, early learning skills, and for fun. Some of my favorite things to stream, though, are nature documentaries.

Nature documentaries give us a chance to do nature study from home when the weather’s bad, or we want to learn about animals that aren’t native to Ohio. To keep track of what the kids learn while watching nature on Netflix, I go through the member section of NotebookingPages.com and print the great open-ended pages that they offer.

Are you looking to add some nature documentaries to your homeschool? Here are 45 titles worth checking out (note: I’ve collected as many nature documentaries as I could find in order to curate a comprehensive list, but you need to use your own judgment as to which are appropriate for your own family):

Did I miss any that you know and love? Tell me about your homeschooling with Netflix. Do you stream shows in your homeschool? What is your favorite ways to use streaming video to enhance learning?

I am a member of the #StreamTeam, which means that I was provided a Netflix subscription in exchange for writing about the ways we use it in our home and homeschool. All opinions are mine, though, and actually, we’ve used Netflix in our homeschool since the beginning. I love it, and had been a subscriber for years before joining the team. It’s fun to have a reason to share about these great resources now…
