I promise this is all related.

My three-year-old loves YouTube, specifically anything to do with Michael Flatley. Real good tapdancer. Anyhow, so I am sitting with her tonight in front of the iBook, and I pull up Michael Flatley on Youtube. "That one! No the blue one!" goes the cry, and I can't figure out how on earth to just click on the one she wants, or how to let *her*
do it.

If you search for "Michael Flatley", YouTube gives you a paginated search results page with a list of videos. Each item in the list has a still from the video, a video title in big letters, and a snippet of matching text for the query. At the end of the list are links to more results, in much the same format as Google Search (a list of number links, then a "Next" link).

Both the still and the title link through to the page for that individual video, and when that page is opened the video will normally start playing automatically.

Since she can't read the title to you, the easiest thing would be to encourage her to click on the video still.

Alternatively, cycle through the video titles with Control Option Down until VoiceOver's black box surrounds the title next to the video still she wants to see.

Does that help?
