I don't know how clever your Kids are ;-), but there is a "Watched"
filter in mythvideo. M -> Filter Display -> Watched: [YES|NO|ALL]

Alternatively use this

mysql -e "SELECT filename FROM videometadata WHERE watched = '1';"
--batch --skip-column-names -u mythtv -pPASSWORD mythconverg

and move, delete or whatever you want with this list...
