Here's an idea that worked for us. We created a separate user account (non-administrative) for each child. Now we as administer can set limits such as what time, which days, and for how long each user may log on. So, when they're playing games, watching a dvd, surfing the web, the computer gives them a 15 min and 5 min warning, then goes to sleep. If they truly need more time, we can easily extend that session.
