[prawn]

If my children watch YouTube, it is with me and I'm choosing the content, or giving them options to pick between. We generally watch documentaries. Where necessary, I provide extra explanations, or paraphrase subtitles for the preschooler. If I pause and ask them a question to have them understand why something is happening, they seem to enjoy the challenge. I hope that it makes them interested/interesting and inquisitive people.

Examples of things we've watched recently:
