A specific price would be more helpful.

Also AA batteries I assume?

What's inexpensive? If you need something that's kid proof and rock solid reliable, I'd say Fenix E05. At $20 or so it might be out of your price range but you should realize go really cheap and you may have lights that will require some initial work to make reliable.

If you're a pretty handy individual willing to take apart, clean, tune up and reassemble a flashlight then I'd say get a Uniquefire G10 from dealextreme. It's about the least expensive Cree XP-G flashlight available at about $14 with shipping. It's so far my favorite compact light. On 1 AA nimh it is darn bright and has a very smooth high quality beam to it. An running off a 14500 li-ion it's as bright as any other XP-G light out there, which is to say very very bright, for comparison it's almost as bright as my Aurora AK P7 led light yet fits in the palm of my hand.

Not sure if you eBay shop, but if you search "3 x TechLite Tactical LED Flashlight" there are three 150 lumen lights in a pack for about $30 bucks.

At SAM's, I bought a packet of ten, multi-colored cased, 6-led lights for about $20. My kids love 'em.

Hope this helps.

The children are only 5-1/2" in length?

Buy a couple of Black Cat OSRAM lights, they are about $8 each and run on a single AAA battery. You can also get them with blue or red light beams if the kids like to play with the colors.
I keep one on my keychain, it has a lot of throw.
Do a search for Black Cat OSRAM and make sure you are getting the color BODY you want as well as the color BEAM that you want.
