Hello,

May I suggest AdGuardHome (aka AGH) that is in ports www/adguardhome. It can be used as local DNS forwarder and it handles following protocols plain DNS, DNS-over-TLS, DNS-over-HTTPS (HTTP/2 and HTTP/3), DNS-over-QUIC, DNSCrypt. It works fine with public DNS resolvers or your local DNS resolver (dns/unbound for example). 
HaGeZi's blocklists are very well curated and they are already in Filtering menu in AGH (except NSFW blocklist but you can easily add it). You can also block DoH/Proxy/VPN servers so your children will not be able to activate DoH in their Web browsers. 
More details on HaGeZi's GitHub web repo https://github.com/hagezi/dns-blocklists
About AGH the GitHub web repo is https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdGuardHome

Kind regards.
Alexandre
