Now this is the kind of media—learning, laughing, and fun—we’re talking about.
Scholastic, which we most definitely grew up on, is stepping into the streaming game with a fresh and free AVOD service (that’s Advertising-Based Video on Demand) for kids and families. Spearheaded by 9 Story Media Group, the platform is packed with nostalgic and beloved titles we never missed growing up.
The free streamer features iconic series like:
- Clifford the Big Red Dog (Classic, Seasons 1–2)
- Goosebumps (Original Series, Seasons 1–3)
- The Baby-Sitters Club
- The Magic School Bus (Classic, Seasons 1–4)
- Animorphs
- Garfield
- Barney & Friends
- Clifford’s Really Big Movie
With over 400 hours of programming, the Scholastic AVOD service is aimed at kids aged 2 to 12 and their families. At launch, it’s available via Roku and Amazon Fire TV, the two biggest streaming gateways in the U.S., with additional platforms to follow2.
This isn’t just entertainment—it’s a return to trusted storytelling. In a time when growing a child’s brain is too often sidelined by fear-based media and confusion-driven content, this new Scholastic service is necessary, vital, and a good time wrapped in one media-watch burrito.
