Anime to Watch With Younger Siblings
Anime
I personally love anime, so when my little sister became interested, I wanted to find shows that are interesting yet respectable (like kid-appropriate). I didn't add any Studio Ghibli movies cuz that's kinda obvious (gotta watch them all.) I hope this helps any other older anime fan with lil siblings! (P.S. These are my opinions and recommendations; look at them before watching them with your siblings if you're not sure!)

Anime about witches, honestly the best not only is it fun, but the music is great it has important lessons so your siblings don't have to be brainrotting on YouTube lol

Best freakin show ever; can watch it with the whole fam. About pirates and never giving up on your dreams. In later episodes (after the timeskip) you may want to be a bit wary of any fanservice, other than that you'd be surprised how much kids can understand important lessons, I think it helps if you talk about them while watching the show together.

A cool ballet story about the swan and black swan, and other stories. Focuses on a duck who has a crush on a prince and has to find all the pieces of his heart. If your sibling is younger I suggest only watching season one.

One of the best shows you can come across. Unique concept, A little kid named Aladdin has a flute with a jinn, he finds a guy named Alibaba, and a girl named Morgiana. They become bros travelling the diverse world to get stronger, fight bad guys and become better people. Just really cool and a great concept as a whole using arab and other cultures to enrich the story. It also has another season. (Just be wary of any fanservice)

Girl got kidnapped to become a servant, she was raised by courtesans and a doctor guy, she somehow becomes fine with her situation (she is pretty level-headed) until this guy Jinshi finds her interesting as she solves mysteries in the castle. Really cool Chinese-based story, has probably one of the best female MCs in a good while. (Has has some heavy topics but mainly goes over the kid's head, and you can decide if you want to skip any parts but I think it's overall a great show and it's nice for young girls to see a cool female protag.)

Im too lazy to finish this so here- "Extremely anxious and socially awkward Hitori Gotō longs to become a rock musician in spite of her struggles, while fulfilling her desires to one day make friends. She is suddenly given a chance to do so after she is taken in by another girl, Nijika Ijichi, to become a member of her newly formed Kessoku Band."
