Hoi, Children in Romania know what to expect of a pizdă<http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/pizd%C4%83#Romanian>, children in Indonesia know it for the tempik<http://en.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?title=tempik&action=edit&redlink=1>.. They are both descriptive and you do not know at all that you want to look for them
Truly the notion that the description will tell you that something is not safe for wok is naive. It is also naive to use it for setting up a web blocker. Trust me, kids are quite capable to find their way around such silly toys because they have more incentive to do so then you have to set up something like a web blocker.
