On this topic, I find it disappointing (at least in the footer and the "English explanation of WikiKids") that Kennisnet hasn't made the project's content available under a free license. On edit pages it notes:
"GEBRUIK GEEN MATERIAAL DAT BESCHERMD WORDT DOOR AUTEURSRECHT, TENZIJ JE DAARTOE TOESTEMMING HEBT!"
which means:
"USE NO MATERIAL WHICH IS PROTECTED COPYRIGHT, UNLESS YOU HAVE TO THIS END AUTHORISATION!"
But beyond shooing away plagiarism, there doesn't seem to be any obvious mention. They've even removed the default mention of the GNU FDL that appears by default on Wikia hosted wikis.

This is just the default message in MediaWiki. You can see the same thing in the original version of the Dutch Wikipedia - http://nl.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Copyrightwarning&old...

The wiki is GFDL. The edit page links to http://kennisnet.wikia.com/wikikids/wiki/Wikikids:Auteursrechten which says that the text on Wikikids is released under the same licence as on Wikipedia, namely the GFDL.

This is just a warning that users should not use copyrighted material unless they have permission.
It is a bit out of sight, but another page says: De teksten op Wikikids worden vrijgegeven onder dezelfde licentie als op Wikipedia http://nl.wikipedia.org/, namelijk de GFDL-licentiehttp://www.gnu.org/copyleft/fdl.html The texts on wikikids are being made available under the same license as Wikipeda, that is the GFDL license.
I wish you health and happiness, teun spaans
