Yes! I use Brave Browser on their ipad. There's a setting to remove Youtube shorts (and avoid commercials).

I've also periodically open their ipad and p;lay educational videos to get them on their homepage. Youtube will still stick videos of 40 year old adults acting 14 and doing weird stuff. I still need to be near them whoever they use Youotube.

There are psychedelic edits of cocomelon songs for developing brains to trip on. It is truly an abhorrent platform.
