Built by Khan Academy -- the nonprofit behind one of the most widely used curricula in early education -- and it shows in how deliberately sequenced the lessons are: nothing appears before its prerequisite, whether that's numeral recognition before place value, or noticing illustrations before making predictions about a story. The YouTube channel itself is a mix of short standalone lessons (30 seconds to a few minutes, direct and calm) and read-aloud story times, rather than one polished show -- it's clearly a companion to the actual Khan Academy Kids app, which is the fuller product. As a YouTube channel on its own it's still genuinely educational and low-drama; just don't expect the same depth you'd get from the app itself.
