Is there a way to do this with a managed user?

I would like to restrict my kid's access to the network settings, and would like it if they didn't even see the icon for it.

Try enabling Parental Controls for the kid's account in the Accounts pref pane.

If you have setup the account as 'Managed with Parental Controls' then you should be able restrict your child's access quite easily. System Prefs->Accounts->Parental Controls- then click 'Only allow selected applications' then select(or don't add any of the Utilities or Network apps.
