Spirit Rangers

I genuinely hope this show is a hit and gets more seasons/episodes. The characters are fun, the voice acting is good, beautiful animation, and song that will get stuck in your head. But hey, they are great songs so no complaints here!

I can already see my daughter internalizing the messages of some of these episodes. And I am so happy that this show tackles topics that may be uncomfortable for some. Cultural appropriation/ignorance and changing bodies (in the episode is about losing baby teeth but could also be interpreted as growing up in general/puberty) are right there along with learning patience and cheating being wrong. It is never too early to introduce these concepts to young ones and the show does a great job framing these issues from a child's perspective. Not to mention gives great examples as to how to navigate these social situations and problems.

I want to see what else a show like this can do. It is a welcome entry to the rotation of children's programming we keep which includes: Magic School Bus, Wild Kratts, Molly of Denali, Arthur, and Sesame St.

Give it a watch folks!

What a great show! It's geared to preschool, my 4 month old is just now starting to see and hear and this show is great for having in the background while she grows up. I love the colorful design and the sweet stories. The only reason I didn't give it 10 stars was that some of the songs get a bit saccharine and don't quite hook for my taste, but otherwise it is a great show for kids and even my husband and I chuckled at the sweet jokes along the way. Definitely love the amplified indigenous life and values. We need more of that. The episodes range on topics and some are more overt than others. I absolutely commend the episodes on treaties and mascots, they were both handled so well and made adult topics accessible to the preschool level. I now want a bike horn that says "turtle".

One of the best children's Tv I have seen in years, ever, The beautiful spirits in f the native American world .

My daughter loved it still does.

All the 😍 ngbanimqls and each have an amazing story from all around und the spirit park and ocean.

Please make more so we don't forget how beautiful nature can be and is What an amazing stories I have to write more but all is said watch it and wherever you live try to find the spirit within the animals.

How brave and beautiful the world is and every storie evolved into a wonderful amazing friendship and you can learn a lot when u search for it and I found out how real these stories are .

Loved every moment.

Can't say enough about this delightful, absolutely spectacularly animated show. The quality of the images are incredible--- just gorgeous! The actors voicing ate all top-notch and perfectly cast. Netflix has really hit a homerun on this one. I love watching it myself along with my grandchildren, who can't get enough of it. I can't think of anything they could have done better. The music is also really great, with very talented singers and wonderful lyrics. The lessons in the episodes are truly wonderful, and I see my grandchildren taking them in and transfixed. I highly recommend this show to all! Hoping for many more seasons!

Ten Things That Got a Star

We "premiered" this series at an Indigenous People's Day event. I was able to see the first episode several times and noticed more and more each time! There is a lot pack into this family-friendly show emphasizing courage, helpfulness, problem-solving, and a connection to the natural world. Here are then thing that got a star in my estimation:

Hearing the Chumash language References to origin stories Setting in a national park Native music and drumming Trickster character Portrait of elder in the foyer - is that a real person?

Hearing elders' voices All-native writing room Released on Indigenous People's Day Mention of fry bread and the solstice - always important in Alaska!
