If she cannot (easily) join other networks, you could set up some restrictions in your wireless router, based on the kindle MAC address. That way you could allow disney.com or whatever and disallow all else. Some routers let you set time-of-day restrictions as well.

But that is all bypassed if the kindle joins a neighbor's open network. What knc1 suggested is probably more secure, although perhaps harder to set up.

EDIT: This is a DX. No wifi. Oops. [See my next post below].
