The feature I believe you're thinking of is called Guided Access; it can be used to lock out some UI components and the home button, and is part of iOS 6 not an application-specific feature.
You basically turn it on in Settings, then triple-click the home button to enable it, map out the areas you want to "mask" from user input, then to turn it off you triple-click and (likely) enter a pin to turn it off.

The home button can be disabled via software in iOS 6. I recall info from WWDC on that. It is implemented by the app developer, not a system feature.
For DJ's little one, this might be an option:
And
here is a round up (I like the gumby case!)
There are some really nice kiosk products that cover the home button with the stand hardware that would be awesome for us in clinical areas like:
$149 for one of them, table mount, nice design
But
then there is this...
Which
implements the kiosk mode on the device. More for actual kiosk than toddler.

Does anyone know if Apple is planning on supporting multi-user logins for the IOS devices, at least the tablet devices? I have to say, on a more personal side, it would be great to hand my 2 yrd old our iPad and not have to rearrange all
of the apps every time! From an enterprise standpoint, that would certainly reduce some of our issues around identification of the users who have the device and have APPS that can be tied to multiple users.
