Photina would be good if the shrubs are to be left un pruned - they look solid and attractive from outside, but inside lots of space between branches, and they are not in anyway a prickly plant either.
Thanks David.

How steep is it, particularly if they let the kids play on it?
The usual thing is to go for tough ground cover, as they hold the soil together and stop erosion. Something like cotoneaster, that will spread and root as it goes.
If the kids are going to be hanging on to things to climb the slope, it'll be a long time before anything has rooted enough to be safe. What about a system of posts concreted in, with ropes between? Just a different idea without seeing pics of the area.
Cotoneaster bullatus?
Grows quickly and almost indestructable
diervilla lonicera is a good one for slopes
