For this same reason I like youtube Kids. Its...not as good as the OG youtube app, you cant really search for channels easily and all, but no ads is a godsend!

Oh and of course always be present and watch with the kids. Even the handpicked stuff on youtube is weird at times... or just not weird but spanish and the small ones are brabbling nonsense for the next hours.

Muchos respectos to your approach

Being able to block certain channels / videos is something I want to try out one day, well mainly just Blippi. We watch YouTube with our 3year old and it's near impossible to avoid his videos being suggested to you. While the content itself is fine, I feel like he crosses a line how bluntly he pushes his toys / videos on to his viewers. Along the lines of "go tell your parents, siblings, babysitters to download/ buy my stuff"

I honestly like the concept of YouTube kids, but is there a way to disable the ads for it? I don't have kids. But I see ads for it constantly. You would think google would target their own ads for their services a little better.

YouTube Red/Premium does, but its only available in some countries.
