The one in 2 Kings 2 is pretty good for the kids:
23 And he went up from thence unto Bethel: and as he was going up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him, Go up, thou bald head; go up, thou bald head.
24 And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the Lord. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them.
25 And he went from thence to mount Carmel, and from thence he returned to Samaria.
Those are the last lines of a longer story where Elisha is farting around the land. The story is good for kids because it teaches the lesson that it is wrong to mock a guy for being bald and the Lord will fucking kill you with bears perhaps if you do that, even if you are just a little kid. So fucking behave you little shits, is the lesson.

Judges 19 is a pretty cool tale for the kids too.
