Miles from Tomorrowland

Brimming with adventures too big to be confined to Earth, this series encourages kids to look to the sky with a new sense of wonder, and that's just what the show's creators had in mind when they developed its STEM-based, NASA-approved content. With science and technology experts consulting behind the scenes and Disney working its typical magic in designing Miles from Tomorrowland 's visual appeal, it's hard to go wrong with this preschool-targeted show.

But inspiring curiosity about the final frontier is only part of the story, and parents will like the show's hearty messages about family camaraderie even better. The Callistos are a fun bunch, especially at play, but their relationships are marked by the occasional dose of reality as well. Miles and Loretta aren't always the best of friends, but they prove their worth to each other when needed. Juxtaposed against big adventures are more low-key scenes of the family sharing a meal and planning their day. These simpler moments serve to remind kids that, although adventures on a grand scale are great, coming home to loved ones is a joy as well.
