My son is 4 and he loves playing the Marble Blast game that came with the iMac G5 we bought recently. I also have MAME installed and he plays some of the games on there (yes, I downloaded the ROMs...but you can't have them! :p). I wonder if there's actually somewhere I can buy the ROMs from legally...
Anyways, try some of the games that shipped with the Mac. Also check out VersionTracker (http://versiontracker.com) and MacUpdate (http://macupdate.com) for some games.

Although not games; but, equally entertaining - for young girls, are My Scene (http://myscene.everythinggirl.com/home.aspx), PaperDoll Heaven (http://www.paperdollheaven.com/), Polly (http://pollypocket.everythinggirl.com/home.aspx), and Sesame Street (http://www.sesameworkshop.org/sesamestreet/).

My son also visits some of the sites you mentioned like Sesame Street. He also visits NOGGIN (http://noggin.com) and some other kid sites like Nick Jr., Playhouse Disney, etc.
And yes, all on the Mac. :D

I also used JumpStart Baby and JumpStart Toddler, as well as Reader Rabbit Toddler. Very popular among the kiddies here. :D

Kid Pix was totally awesome. I remember playing around with it when I was about 5.
I really liked Jump Start first grade when I was in sixth grade... nothing wrong with that :P.
