    Martin has an article on childrens savings accounts here:

    http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/cgi-bin/viewnews.cgi?newsid1089574348,16470,
    It's updated monthly so should be fairly accurate, if you want the most up-to-date info follow the link in the article for a comparison site.

    Also don't forget to check every so often you're still getting a good rate and if necessary change accounts.

    Nationwide always seem to have a fairly good rate and although not at the top of the tables they do seem fairly consistent from what I've heard.

    Hope that helps.
