Personally, I would use limited user accounts for your kids, and set up Group Policy to block access to certain parts
How To Disable Control Panel in Windows 7 - How-To Geek
That way, you don't need to use any software you don't already have, and you don't install some horrible restrictive parental control software that will marr the experience of browsing the web. How old are your kids by the way? Any age above 12-13 it's probably a bad idea to apply parental controls on what they can browse on the internet. I don't believe in shielding children from what is essentially the real world.
Oh, and Assuming you're using Windows 7, this is the only time UAC is actually useful, because you can create limited accounts and give temporary admin access if you want to install something on their account for them, and it also prevents any malware they might contract from changing any settings without an admin password.
