We've had our pond since before the kids were born. I never had a problem with the kids getting into the water (or harassing the fish) and we have a rather large collecting pool (4-5 feet across but only about a foot deep in the center, f that). Although, the dogs have a habit of thinking its their water dish & drinking out of it.
I've found that if I get the kids involved they tend to respect it better. They help me weed/plant flowers. They also help feed the fish each day. I've even heard them telling other kids not to play in the water and show them how to sit on the bgord blocks & watch the fish (thats what I taught them to do if they wanted to "play" with the fish).
