There may be just one day of the year that’s officially labeled “Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day,” but let’s face it: Every day of our kids’ childhood is a day spent prepping them for the real world. Which sounds daunting, until you consider that the business of raising our kids isn’t all preaching to them from atop soapboxes.
Lessons about being grown up come from everywhere, even sitting on the couch watching Netflix as a fam. Don’t believe us? We asked our friends at Netflix to help us put together a list of shows and movies that will teach kids about the wild world of work, even if you can’t take your kiddo on the job for the big day.
Check out 10 must-sees with fun jobs your kids will love.
