Begin by looking at the Buy at SLING TV . First, select your Base Service option from either Sling Orange or Sling Blue. The main difference here is the number of channels as well as device streams. Next, scroll down and choose from one of three Black Friday deals Buy at SLING TV .

The first offer is a three-day Buy at SLING TV . We are all about this free trial since three days is plenty of time to test out Sling for yourself. However, if you’re ready to sign up without testing the waters, make sure to check out the Buy at SLING TV . This BOGO deal offers a second month free after you sign up for Sling TV.

The last Black Friday deal is a Buy at SLING TV , the AirTV Mini. You’re getting a great product in the AirTV Mini because it’s the 2020 winner of the Smart Home Division Mark of Excellence. We really like this option if you’re interested in the extras such as gaming, apps, and music.

We know what you’re thinking. Do the kids get their favorite channels on Sling TV? Yes! When you originally select your Base Service option on Sling, Sling Orange is labeled as the more “family friendly” option. However, both Base Service options have access to family-friendly channels. Sling even has access to some of the kids’ favorite channels like Nick Jr., Cartoon Network, and Disney. The kids love shows like Paw Patrol, Blue’s Clues, and Puppy Pals, but we have to admit that we find ourselves watching the screen at times, too.

Even though Sling TV offers great children’s shows, there are plenty of options for the entire family to enjoy together, too. You’ll have access to other channels including ESPN and the NFL Network to enjoy the big games together on top of HGTV, TLC, E!, Lifetime, and more. We’re suckers for a classic Lifetime holiday movie. Can you blame us?

Now, if you do choose the three-day free trial as your Black Friday deal, be sure to cancel your subscription before the end of the trial period. It’s worth trying since three days is plenty enough time to verify if Sling is the right choice for you and your family.

Happy slinging!Family of four sitting on a couch watching TV

It's a parenting tale as old as time. You have things to get done around the house, but a small person who says they're bored is competing with your to-do list.

Screen time isn't always a bad thing for toddlers. Sometimes, when your little one isn't feeling well, watching a soothing movie is a perfect pick. Low-stimulation movies for toddlers offer better quality screen time than movies that are loud and packed with action. Sure, those are fun and can be super exciting for kids, but the impact on their cognitive development is often negative. Those overstimulating movies can be too much for toddlers, leading to tantrums, meltdowns, and an inability to fall asleep.

Your mind is going in different directions, making it hard to relax and drift off to sleep. Well, it's the same for toddlers.
