Kamp Koral: Spongebob’s Under Years

From meme inspiration to instantly-classic movies, SpongeBob SquarePants has given the world so much. His latest gift? Kamp Koral: Spongebob’s Under Years. The first-ever SpongeBob SquarePants spinoff is a prequel to the original series, featuring a 10-year-old SpongeBob who is enjoying summer camp, frolicking around the ocean with his very best pals, catching jellyfish, and building underwater campfires. (Not everything has to make sense to be great, okay?)

PAW Patrol: The Movie

With its super cute characters and awesome lessons, the Paw Patrol franchise never fails. Its first big-screen adventure, PAW Patrol: The Movie, is one of its most adorable installments. Ryder and his crew of heroic pups are faced with one of the biggest challenges of their careers when their rival, Humdinger, becomes the mayor of Adventure City and immediately begins to cause chaos. Watching PAW Patrol save the day never gets old.

Star Trek: Prodigy

Star Trek is always a good idea, but the franchise has really outdone itself with its first series directly aimed at younger audiences. Star Trek: Prodigy is a CG-animated series that follows the adventures of a lawless group of teen aliens who have to figure out how to work together while searching for ways to make the galaxy a better place.

Rumble

Who doesn’t love an underdog moment? Rumble exists in a universe in which monster wrestling is a global phenomenon, and teen coach Winnie is following in her father’s footsteps as she works with a very lazy, nap-loving monster to turn him into a world champion. It’s a funny, feel-good film that hopefully make your kids feel warm and fuzzy inside. (And hopefully won’t inspire them to try to body slam anyone.)
