Canada is one of the few countries with access to a new feature Netflix is reportedly testing. The new Kids Clip feature targets younger viewers and helps them find something to watch on the service. If that seems familiar to you, this new feature builds on Netflix's Fast Laughs comedy feed launched earlier this year. 

Your kid can just swipe through clips taken from the service's children's programming. But instead of it in portrait mode like on apps like TikTok, the feature is viewed horizontally, and kids can only watch 10 to 20 clips at a time. And Netflix will refresh it daily depending on what shows and movies are on the platform or those coming out soon. The feature is meant to combat decision fatigue, which plagues the service's subscribers. According to Bloomberg, this feature is being tested here, in the US, Australia, Ireland, and Latin American countries.
