There isn't.
I recommend a white list perimeter consisting of a firewall (default deny) and whitelist squid setup. This *does* prevent all the ads. You can't get around adding sites for them though. Escaping parental involvement is impossible if you are serious about not allowing harmful content. The only way for this to be really possible is using default deny which is the only way you can be guaranteed to know what your kids are doing...
