Parental control apps for ipad

Anyone got any thoughts on which are best?

It's not really something I've ever had to worry about but the DC's now have iPads and I want to be sure they are not accessing anything inappropriate.

I have controls set for the iPad itself but need something that also restricts safari content. Any thoughts?

Get into restrictions area under settings, you set the access code (them not to know). Disable Safari & install K9 browser instead (Safari has no controls).

Disable ability for them to install apps (pain as they will bother you to install things).

Get a filter on your WiFi, OpenDNS is popular but look it over carefully, has holes in it.

That's only a start, I reckon.
