Netflix Adds Full Episodes to Its Playground Kids Games App
Netflix has added full episodes to its Playground app, which was previously focused on games for children aged eight and under.
The separate app launched in April 2026 and features simple games based on familiar children’s characters.
Children can now switch between games and shows in one app, without returning to Netflix’s main app.
The first episodes available are from Doozie’s Doghouse, a Gabby’s Dollhouse spin-off, which also has a new game in Playground.
The lineup includes shows such as PAW Patrol, Peppa Pig, Sesame Street and Trash Truck.
Netflix says the selection will rotate over time, so Playground will not offer a permanent copy of its full children’s library.
The change brings viewing and gaming together in one place for young users.
Netflix has added full episodes of children’s shows to its Playground gaming app.
The feature begins November 9, with episodes available alongside games in the app.
The first new title is Doozie’s Doghouse, a Gabby’s Dollhouse spin-off.
Netflix says the selection of shows available in Playground will rotate over time.
The app is designed for children aged 8 and under and launched in April 2026.
