This is what we do too for our PC computer/laptop that the kids use. For now, I have it fully "locked down" to content that I have pre-approved. But, when she's in her teens, I'll open it up, on the understanding that she'll need to apply her own judgment and be aware that I get a monitoring report of everything she views. (I also have her email automatically forward to my account and passwords to all accounts that I've allowed her to have.)

For our iPad and our daughter's iPod Touch, I have the web limited to only "approved" web sites -- which meant I had to go in and manually type in each web site that I wanted to allow her access to. If she wants to view another one that is not on the list, she can "request access" through a pop-up menu and then I get a notification on my phone. I can grant/reject access from my iphone.
