This can even be done without google. In fact, this would require minimal work. For example, Kodi's youtube plugin, which lacks the recommendations and autoplay features (which is a feature in this case), could be easily restricted to only show the "Subscriptions" folder.
On the other hand, a user-maintained curated list of channels for children is not something that unthinkable (think of GitHub model, with pull requests and that sort of thing).
Join both things and you get a better alternative to Youtube Kids for concerned parents. I'm even surprised nobody has done something like this, it would be a nice project.

- GFischer 9y agoThat's one of my favourite ideas to submit whenever people ask for startup ideas :) I absolutely believe there's a need for curated content for online video. I'd love a tv-channel-like browsing experience, with seamless switching (maybe some clever caching behind the scenes).
