Is there anyway I can hide iPad games from my students?

I teach preschool and we have several iPads that serve as both school iPads, and personal iPads for myself and my aides. Is there anyway I can hide games I don't want them to play without deleting them? Help please!!

Short answer, no...but you could look into using Guided Access mode. When activated, it locks the iPad into a single app. Students can no longer hit the home button/go into other apps without knowing your passcode. Here's the apple support article about how to set it up:

And here's a blog post with some pictures and video showing how it works:
