Losing desktop icons from admin account when I delete them from standard user account

I setup a standard user account for my grandchildren who like to play games on my PC when they visit. Some of my administrator's account desktop icons appeared on their desktop automatically when I set up their account. All of my desktop icons didn't show up on their desktop but several security program icons did including Ad-Aware, ThreatFire, and Avast. Oddly, my iTunes icon appeared on their desktop too. I don't want the kids running or otherwise accessing the security programs so I deleted them from their desktop. But when I did that, they were also deleted from my admin account desktop. When I put them back on my admin desktop, they show up on the kids' desktop again. I would appreciate any suggestions on how to get around this. Thanks.
