May is almost here, and with the school year winding down, you might find that your kids aren’t getting as much homework as they did during the fall and winter. With all this extra freetime, they may be going to Hulu to find a new series to watch, but, unfortunately, they may not find anything new. So, are there any new kids shows coming to Hulu in May?
The streamer hasn’t announced any new children's’ series for the month, so your kids may need to rewatch something they love, or possibly find a cool show on Hulu they haven’t watched yet. Hulu has a great catalog for kids, including Disney series like Doc McStuffins, Dog With a Blog, and KC Undercover, as well as Nick shows including Drake & Josh, Every Witch Way, and Penguins of Madagascar. The streamer also features plenty of exciting Cartoon Network shows, like Teen Titans Go!, The Powerpuff Girls, Adventure Time, and Justice League Action.
However, if your kids have exhausted all the Hulu content they can, and are looking for something fresh to watch in May, you can all get together and watch some of the exciting new family shows premiering next month.
