YouTube - Safe Sharing with Students

YouTube is an excellent resource when it comes to sharing video content with our students. However, YouTube contains some content that is not age appropriate for our students, or can unintentionally lead to that dreaded "rabbit hole time suck" where students watch the one video you sent them and then it leads to unintended hours on YouTube. How might we still utilize this vast resource, but in a way that is safe and focused for our learners?
