FF doesn't have built in blocking capabilities, but you can install this addon to accomplish the task.

Bear in mind however that a lot of kids are smarter when it comes to the pc than their parents are and can quickly overcome this type of stuff. If your child falls into this category you are better off putting a password on the router configuration and blocking access to the offending site through the router's firewall rules.
