It was a busy year for Netflix on the kids and family front, with a ton of new releases, but what topped the kids’ top 10? Below, we’ll present the top 100 movies and series that scored the most in the daily kids’ top 10 throughout the year, where those daily top 10s are available.
it Data comes from FlixPatrolWhich, as you may know, assigns point values to the daily top 10 worldwide. Each country has its own top 10, and by assigning points, we can tell which series and movies had the longest legs in the top 10, which may reflect popularity. This isn’t exactly the same viewership number as we get from the Netflix engagement report, but it shows a strong correlation.
For these lists, we’re looking at the Daily Top 10 for Kids profile, which was first introduced in mid-2021. These top 10 only include titles that are eligible to be included in Netflix’s Kids section. We’ve done this for the past few years, so we’re able to get a good look at the big plays for the streamer in this section, and we know that in terms of film, Universal’s slate of animated titles carries the most weight. Will this continue in 2025 also? let’s take a look.

It’s no surprise what took home the most points. Of course, Kpop Demon Hunter. It dominated the top 10 immediately after the film’s failure and has remained unchanged since then. We all know the story by now; It became Netflix’s most watched movie ever, by a fairly wide margin, and still garners a lot of viewing hours in the top 10 every week. Even better, we can predict that there is no doubt that it will take the number 1 spot next year too.
Elsewhere, a similar picture from years ago: Thanks to Netflix’s licensing arrangement with Universal Pictures globally, we see Illumination titles regularly cycle in and out of Netflix in almost every region, and because of this, their movies tend to dominate whenever they jump on the air.
Paramount’s PAW Patrol movie made its way to Netflix around the world all year long, and just like the series that does numbers for the streamer, the movie does the same.
