8 Classic Cartoons to Share With Kids

1 of 11 next
Animation Elation

Move over, Dora. Stand aside, Phineas and Ferb. Settle down, SpongeBob. It's time for some old-school cartoons to show you how it's done.

From Star Blazers to Space Ghost, these eight animated series were beloved by millions long before the current generation was born. Happily they're readily available on DVD today; some are still rerun on cable TV outlets like Boomerang. That makes them perfect candidates to introduce to children, whether they’re fans of intergalactic anime or well-executed cat-and-mouse chases.

So what are you waiting for? Toon in to these great shorts, and watch the kids' faces light up.
