Thanks, Lu, that looks good for the little dude here.

I would appreciate recommendations for more-or-less educational channels for precocious middle-grade kids.
My kid really wants to watch Kurz Gesagt – In a Nutshell videos but I think most of those look like trash.
Anyone know of a better equivalent?
Our big go-to's over the past couple years have been:

Jared Owen
Animagraffs
Checkerwelt

and lots of music (and sometimes art) content. Plus all kinds of bushcrafting / rough building stuff.

I've been wanting to put together some new playlists over the holidays.
Would really appreciate age-appreciate recs for science, engineering/building, history, languages (he's doing Japanese on DuoLingo).
