Block apps for children

I am looking for a SIM card so I can block my child getting specific apps, not a blanket block on social media. Declining mental health in children and the link between social media has been reported on and as a mother I want to be able to block apps such as Snapchat and Ticktoc for example as my child has been bullied using these apps. I have found a sim card company named Parent Shield which I am considering. However it is quite expensive. Is this something Smarty can offer?

    Carrie-A_387525​ Thisseems like a good idea but I bet the price won't drop until it becomes more popular - this is what happened with Travel Esims.

    Will you also be able to block these things when the children are on home wifi? Is that going to need another plan costing more than the bare minimum?
