Kid Friendly DnD 5e

Hey all,.. 47yo, Dad of two (13 and 12) here, and just joined Roll20. Looking to find some games I can play with my kids and would welcome anyone's best advice on how we find some? All three of us are very new to DnD -- we've played 2 games each and I (sort of) DM'd my first for them and some friends just the other day. Ideally, we'd find some similarly situated parent/child friendly games and for beginners. Any recommendations anyone can suggest are very much appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Way back when my daughter was 11-12, she expressed interest in TTRPG, particularly D&D. So, I designed a campaign for children that starts out with them getting into it right away to find out whether they like it or not before one delves into the complexity of making a character. If they don't like actual experience of TTRPG, not much time/energy is lost. The first session, about an hour long, ends with the start of character creation which is very open-ended (again designed so that kids can have wide-open options). If liked, it opens into a campaign that would last ten or so sessions depending on the group. It can be a bit scary but can be scaled up or down depending on taste. I've brought it into Roll20 so is ready to go and have run it for a group of kids. I also ran it for a younger adult group and they seemed to like it.
