Choosing the Disney+ Bundle plan will reward you and your family with endless entertainment options. As if having the entire Disney collection on your device isn’t magical enough, The Disney Bundle allows you to add even more to your plan. At $12.99 per month, you can add ESPN+ and Hulu to your Disney+ plan, which saves you money versus subscribing to all three separately. With access to all platforms, everyone in the family can find something they love.

Budding athletes will go crazy for the live sports and archived specials on ESPN+, which you won’t find on other mainstream streaming platforms. This app covers MLB, international soccer, and even collegiate athletics. To discover what else ESPN+ has to offer sports fanatics, check out its video page for full listings, including live-event coverage.

Hulu, on the other hand, has a little bit of everything. From kids shows to R-rated movies, this streaming service has got it all. No one is in the mood for the same shows 24/7, right?

Spending time together as parent and child is an awesome way to show your love and appreciation for one another any day of the year, especially if you can find something to do (or watch!) that you both enjoy. Whether your idea of a perfect Valentine’s Day includes a romantic movie — Disney can help keep your kiddos occupied — or some family time watching your favorite animated classic, the diverse options from Disney+ lets you decide what’s best for you. Whichever plan you choose, you have hours of magical memories with your family ahead of you, which in itself is a Valentine’s Day gift unlike no other.
