With physical access to the machine, this isn't a problem. Simply open the box and remove the CMOS battery for a number of minutes so the motherboard resets to factory defaults. On most motherboards there is also a jumper you can short circuit to reset to factory defaults. You could use encrypted partitions, but the kids could still surf while running the live CD, or something else, like knoppix.
