DIRECTV's MyKids Pack Bundles Family Channels and Disney+ for $20.99 a Month
DIRECTV's new MyKids Genre Pack offers over 10 family-friendly channels including Cartoon Network, Nickelodeon, and Disney Channel, plus a Disney+ subscription. The package costs $20.99 per month after a five-day free trial and allows unlimited simultaneous streams on home Wi-Fi. It is one of five Genre Packs available to add to existing or new DIRECTV plans.
The MyKids pack is one of five Genre Packs DIRECTV offers, and it can be layered onto either new or existing accounts without locking customers into a contract. Subscribers get 14 channels spanning preschool through teen programming, and the Disney+ inclusion does not replace an existing Disney+ subscription a household may already hold.
Families can sample the service for five days before the monthly charge begins. An optional MyCinema Mini Pack adds ten movie-focused channels for an extra $10.99 per month, and all DIRECTV customers receive access to MyFree DIRECTV channels alongside paid packages.
This bundle could appeal to families seeking to consolidate streaming and live TV costs into one bill, potentially simplifying household entertainment budgeting. By bundling Disney+ with family channels, DIRECTV may strengthen its position among parents who value both live programming and on-demand content, though the monthly add-on cost could still be a consideration for budget-conscious households weighing it against standalone streaming subscriptions.
