Sure, or they could link into some AI generated animations of sensory fetishes. YouTube has everything their little hearts could desire, and it's goal is to keep them engaged. Even the educational content is competing with "educational" content that's been optimized for maximum engagement with minimum investment. Anything created for kids is only one or two links away from some toy unboxing or pay-to-win video game.
