    Normally, connect to the management address of router & modify the wireless to set to enabled. It will ask for an encryption type (choose "WPA" at least, but not "WEP") and then a password.
    But you're now opening what you wanted closed off to protect the kids, so either set a password you're not going to share with them, or look into a filter system (additional hassle)...
