Is there any way to restrict my 4 year old from going through the photos on our ipad?
iPad 2, iOS 5.0.1
Yes, by having it password locked when you are not using it.

No, you can't stop him/her viewing and/or deleting them in the Photos app - only the actual Camera app can be hidden, not the photos.
There are some third-party photo apps which allow you to copy your photos into them from Photos, and which can have a passcode lock set to restrict access to them e.g. Photo Manager Pro has a passcode lock within it - so you could copy your photos into a third-party app (and preferably to your computer so that you have a backup copy : copying photos) and then delete them from Photos.
If you want to let your child use your device, use Guided Access.
