Blythe, California (NAPSI) - A new way that many families get their entertainment these days is by streaming TV shows and movies.

Perhaps because it’s mentioned in conversations about cords, cables and compatible devices, streaming can be seen as complicated or overwhelming. Once families learn how to stream, however, they gain access to an unlimited wealth of entertainment for the whole family.

Families looking to start streaming can find simple streaming instructions paired with rows of movie and TV options to enjoy at home or on the go, anytime, anywhere at Netflix.com/families. It also features tips from parents who share when and how they stream.

“I was overwhelmed by the idea of streaming and so I never took the time to see what it was all about,” said Melissa Musen Gerstein of parenting expert duo The Moms. “But all this time I could have been watching on our Wii or my iPad. Now, I love watching all the great TV shows I missed while I was giving the kids baths every night. I curl up with my iPad after the kids are in bed and enjoy what I want to watch.”

Most American families already have three or more Netflix-ready devices, yet 59 percent of those homes aren’t streaming TV shows and movies. Netflix works on a wide range of devices—from smartphones to tablets, laptops and Smart TVs to popular game consoles like the Sony PlayStation, Microsoft Xbox and Nintendo Wii.

Accessible from any computer or tablet, the Families page can help you find the right entertainment when and how you need it, including unlimited viewing of favorites from Disney, Hasbro, and Cartoon Network, “Mad Men,” “Scandal” and “House of Cards.”
