FREEDUC was one I found useful. Managed to pull off teaching for first 
twoo weeeks of the year running completely off FREEDUC CD's while I was 
readying the hard drives elsewhere. http://www.ofset.org/freeduc-ecole

Was veryinterested in seeing the games release of freeduc mentioned by 
Mark Robinson. Could be useful as an end term item on the reward-points 
auction I run.

I don't know of any live CD where access to hard drive is impossible, 
but then your four year old would have to know about mounting drives 
etc.  although having to mount the drive (expecially if it's only doable 
in command line) is quite a bit harder than just deleting stuff in XP.

* refuses to mention the NTFS issues of XP access *
