once you get things cleaned up, set your 18 month-old with his/her own
user account.

then log;

  http://www.google.com/advanced_search?hl=en&output=linux&restrict=linux

enter next line in 'all these words',

  "children" AND ""games" OR "education"" -gory -adult -unsuitable -fat

after which, when desktop gets messed up, delete old account and create new.

in another year, you should not be having to create accounts as often. :o)


while skimming hits, 13,000, i did note;

  http://childsplay.sourceforge.net/
and
  http://playubuntu.com/linux-games-/242.html

which has links to a lot of promising links.
