Old Pallets
I don't know how you are going to keep the KIDS from jumping but you can always put a runner (like a clothes line) up for the dogs. Just attach a leash to the runners so they can't reach the areas you want to keep them out of and also so they can't get tangled up in each others leashes. We did this with two dogs and 375 foot runner with a 50 foot leash for each. Worked great.
Good luck keeping the Great Pyrenees from being with the kids. I had one when my kids were little and she lived to play with the kids. She was 150 pounds at six months. She ate a redwood planter, a bunch of our deck and a really old grapevine. We found a farm that wanted her and would let her eat wood to her hearts content and run the fences that she was bread for after we had to replace rails for the fourth time in one summer. The pallet suggestion would let you put up fencing for little cost. Wire fencing would not stand up to your big one.

Hi Pam: Instead of dividing your yard, have you thought about making a fenced in area in the corner of your yard for the dogs? It doesn't have to be huge, just a place for the dogs to hang out when the kids are over, just 2 walls of fence and 1 gate. It didn't cost that much at all. Check Habitat For Humanity Restore ( Westland Foreclosure Homes - HUDHomesUSA.org). I built one for my dogs, and it's like 'their room' and the kids aren't allowed in there. Sometimes the dogs just want to get away and that's where they go. Also, they have been trained to go potty in 'their room', so that I don't have to go on a treasure hunt every day. They know where to go and I know where to go and get it :) They are fairly large dogs, Airedales and 1 Irish Wolfhound, and it was easy to train them.
Good luck
