Like most of the major streaming services, Disney+ is planning to grow and expand its content tremendously in 2021, and we are totally here for it. At least for now, the family-friendly streaming service is sticking with PG-13 and below content, which makes it a heck of a lot easier for us parents. We love that every time our kids queue up Disney+ there's a wide variety of shows and movies available to them that we can be sure is appropriate and we don't have to worry about them coming across anything they shouldn't see.
Of course, every parent has a different media threshold for their children, but for the most part, everything on Disney+ is going to be relatively kid-friendly, and the service offers up enough variety that there truly is something for everyone in the family. From Disney Channel original series to nature documentaries and everything in between, there's lots of new content landing on Disney+ every month this year. In February, subscribers will get access to more episodes of the brand new show WandaVision, a new original movie, several documentaries, more Marvel content, and several previously released feature films that are arriving on the streaming service for the first time since it launched. Keep reading to find out the best of what's coming to Disney+ this February.
