Grab the K12LTSP distro. The squid and squidguard and dansguardian in
the setup is pretty much kid safe. It is designed for use in schools.
There is also a squidguard module for webmin that makes it easy to add
more stuff to the blocked list.

Use squidguard fr the block list and access control and DansGuardian for
the page-level filtering.
