You have some international films for kids that haven't made there way to North America yet. One choice seems to have snuck in that I'm very happy about Ninja Kids!!!, the exclamation points are part of the title. Ninja Kids!!! is from the insane Japanese director Takashi Miike about a ninja training school for little kids. It seems more centered for teens with it being subtitled, but it's probably it's first showing here in LA or the west coast

Then you have Welcome to the Space Show, which I was wondering when we would see a US dubbed release of. No word from Aniplex releasing it, but you can try out this masterpiece of animation about a bunch of school kids going on vacation in space
