My son gets into the windows explorer via right clicking the start button.
Can someone please tell me how to hide this.

I don't think you can do that ...what's the reason for hiding it anyway?
...there are other plenty of other ways of accessing Explorer.

My son is only 5 and he knows that you can right click
the start button to get there.

I believe the point was that after removing this, which I do
not believe would be that simple in XP Home, then next
he will find that he can r-click on my computer to get there,
etc..
You you have Pro ? If so, local policies could be used to
assist you in this objective.
Alternatively, if you are concerned about what he will find
and/or could do by using Explorer, the solution is to use
NTFS filesystem permissions effectively in order to control
his access to areas and/or ability to change things.
