Netflix, Inc.  today announced the availability of “Just for Kids” on the PlayStation 3 (PS3) game console, further expanding the availability of the section popular with kids and caregivers.

Netflix “Just for Kids” makes it easier and more fun for kids and families to browse and instantly watch a large selection of kid-friendly TV shows and movies. Since introducing the section in August 2011, Netflix members have watched more than one billion hours of kids titles.
