How did children survive fireplaces before the invention of such products? Use that.
Seriously, it may sound harsh, but open fires and children have co-existed for a long, long time. Ditto for sharp rocky edges like bricks.
If you are dedicated to the idea of protecting your kids from this sort of danger, look into recommendations/requirements for code regarding the spacing of wood burning stoves from walls etc. I was considering installing a wood burning stove in our current home and the number that kept coming up was 18" from any flammable material. I can't recall if that was for the stove or the flue.
