My brother and SIL are moving apart and getting divorced soon. We're very close to them and their kids. Any recommendations on books or shows for their kids or mine? The kids are 2-5.

It isn't specifically about divorce, but my son (3) has been really into the show Phineas and Ferb. It's on Netflix. The main characters are a blended family (although the show never draws attention to it...they aanted to show that families come in all shapes and sizes without needing to point out the step family aspect). One of the other main characters is divorced and he shares custody of his daughter with his ex-wife (so she goes back and forth a lot and the divorce/parents living separately is shown pretty often). The show is really fun and upbeat, so it might be fun just to show that families can change or look different than what they are used to, but there is enough room/love for everyone.
We just watched a couple episodes, so it was the first thing that popped into my head when I saw your post.

"My family's just right for me"
Google the song, looks like Barney made it most famous. My DDs K class sang it for their "parents day party" and it has some great verses in it!
