You can delete the app from iTunes, but that will also delete it permanently from your iDevice once you sync it.

Jan 10, 2014 11:12 AM in response to Axeman1020by Kappy,★HelpfulIf the OP's kids are prying into the purchases history, they may quickly figure out how to unhide purchases, as well. I would wonder if this would work in the long-term given the kids' curiosity.

Jan 10, 2014 11:20 AM in response to Kappyby Axeman1020,Maybe I misunderstood. I assumed the OP meant the Purchased section in the App Store app.
In that case they would still need the Apple ID password to access the account and unhide the purchases.
