Frequently Asked Questions

 What Is Sherwood?

Sherwood is an all-in-one entertainment platform designed for kids ages 3-12, offering a curated library of low-stimulation shows, audiobooks, podcasts, and eBooks. Our content is designed to spark imagination, encourage literacy, and align with traditional family values—all without ads or agendas.

 How is Sherwood Different from other streaming services for kids?

Unlike mainstream media that prioritizes fast-paced, overstimulating content, Sherwood is built to engage young minds in a healthier, more intentional way. Our stories are designed to ignite curiosity, strengthen focus, and develop a love for reading—without addictive algorithms or hidden agendas.

What Content is on Sherwood?

Sherwood is home to over 4000 titles (and more added all the time). ​Sherwood features wholesome, timeless stories that entertain while reinforcing virtues, strong character, and positive habits. We offer:

  • Low-Stimulation Shows – Simple, high-quality storytelling without the flashy distractions of mainstream media.
  • eBooks – Ranging from picture books to classic novels.
  • Podcasts – Sherwood exclusives and vetted others that offer new stories weekly.
  • Audiobooks – Classic tales and modern favorites.

 Are there screen-free options?

Yes! Sherwood is built with a screen-free first approach. We have thousands of audiobooks and exclusive podcasts to keep kids entertained without a screen. Plus, with our Sherwood Speaker, kids can enjoy stories anytime, anywhere—whether it’s at bedtime, during quiet afternoons, or on long car rides.

 Can I Play it on my TV?

Yes! While a dedicated SmartTV app is still in development, the audio-content and video content can be airplayed/screen cast on most SmartTVs.

Our goal is to replace YouTube for screen and content conscious families. Continuing the development of that technology is a top priority.

 Why is Low-Stimulation important?

Most kids’ media today is engineered to overload young brains with rapid scene changes, flashy visuals, and excessive noise. This kind of overstimulation leads to shorter attention spans, addictive screen habits, and less imaginative play. Sherwood slows things down to help kids think, imagine, and engage with stories in a meaningful way.

 Sherwood for homeschooler?

Our ebook and audiobook library is primarily built upon the reading lists for Charlotte Mason and classical homeschool programs. If we don’t have the book you need for your child’s education, let us know, and we will work on adding it to the library.

What Content is on Sherwood?

Sherwood is designed for kids ages 3-12. Our library includes a wide range of content suited for different developmental stages:

  • Podcasts are great for all ages, with fun and educational content that grows with your child.
  • Audiobooks and eBooks offer more depth for independent readers and older kids who are ready for longer, more immersive stories.
  • Video content tends to skew younger, providing simple, engaging, and low-stimulation shows for early learners.

Sherwood gives families the flexibility to adapt content to their child’s needs—whether they’re just starting out or ready for more complex storytelling.

 Where can I use Sherwood?

The content is only accessible via the Sherwood app, similar to Netflix content only being viewed through the Netflix app.

Right now, our app is available on the Android and iOS app stores and online. You can see the online web application here: app.sherwoodkids.com.
