I'm trying to learn French, so I'm looking for places to get media I can watch and read. Bonus points if there are kids' books and TV shows -- I'm at an absolute beginner level here.

The fediverse community is !tipiak@anarchist.nexus

Tipiak is a kinda slang way of saying pirate. It comes from an old tv ad from a food company named Tipiak. 3 old grandma screamed "pirate !" after discovering that the food tastes the same as their own secret family recipe (supposedly). It became sort of a meme and is used to say pirate. As the French language is not difficult enough for our English neighbours, we started to conjugate the word: Ce soir je vais tipiaker ce film (tonight I’m going to pirate (download) that film).

The same word is used in the answer from @obercail@jlai.lu with even a new variant: Tipiakeries (pirate thingy)

The two main French torrents tracker (private tracker) are:

https://www.yggtorrent.org/ (domain tld change regularly)
https://la-cale.space/ (recently created after bad decision by ygg, and growing)
