How can I create a very restrictive account for my 3 year old.
Limit access to a couple of specific applications
Disable left-click
Disable keyboard shortcuts
Disable resolution change/rotate
Lock tool bar
Limit the number of window that can be opened at one time
etc

I’m sure some people here, and the gnome docs will be of more help. But
consider if it’s necessary.
Just create a new user account for your child, and it won’t be
privileged enough to cause any harm to your computer (worst case, it’ll
need a reboot).

Fabreno, were you able to do this? I have an old p3 I was thinking
about making into an educational PC for my 4 and 3 year olds.

Someone should petition the developers to include a predefined group
“Toddlers” to the default user groups, having locked-down accounts, more
restricted than ordinary users, such as no right-click, preventing
multiple consecutive clicks on the same desktop icon, a predefined low
sound volume, a drastically stripped-down menu (restricted to just the
Logout button) and with some simple drawing tools and games on the
Desktop (with cool, large-sized and self-explaining icons). Of course,
all this should be provided for KDE too.

You don’t seriously plan leaving a 3 year old child alone with a computer, do you?

Slightly out of topic but I will answer nonetheless.
Actually I am serious, at 3 he already use it better than my mother.
From powering it up, to browsing the menu to launch firefox (default
page are flash games for toddlers), tuxpaint or his favorite gnome game,
he is surprisingly comfortable using a computer.
I have setup an old laptop for his sole use so losing data is not a
concern.
Only issues at this time is that he doesn’t close applications and tend
to “explore” the menus.

I have GCompris for my son. he also uses tuxpaint to create his monalisa
some times he uses opensuse writer in big font to learn alphabets.
The account is a default kde account with comics plasmoid.
