I've ran Pihole for years but switched to NextDNS. It gives me more control over my kids access.
For example scheduled access to YouTube and Roblox. Also, since it's a public service it means I can block them regardless of network. So for example when we are on holiday. My eldest worked out he could use network data on his phone to avoid the Pihole.

Oh, and it's DNS over TLS so queries are now encrypted rather than plain text that regular DNS.

None of this will block YouTube ads though. For that I use NewPipe or Firefox and uBlock Origin.

Can't they change their DNS settings?

Sure. But they aren't at that age to be aware. To be honest unless someone is clued up the average person wouldn't know either.
