This depends on whether your wireless router supports this. You should look into the features and documentation for your wireless router to see whether it offers a guest network, or childrens access controls, or multiple networks. You should also edit your question to include the specific model number of your wireless router.

Depends on the router and the software the router is running. A TalkTalk (UK ISP) router that has multiple access points with different ssid/passwords. Meanwhile an EE router (rebadged BT hub) allows per device access controls. Submit details of your router, and ISP and folks here should be able to help directly.

yep, definitely possible. please add the make & models of your wireless devices to the question. worst case scenario, you would need to buy a new router, or install pfsense or similar to old hardware to accomplish it. please update the question with this information.

Oh yes. The ability to provide a second or "guest" network is a feature of many home WiFi routers. If you ever go into a business and you see two WiFi networks:
JPS-Private
Joes Pizza Shack Free WiFi
That's exactly what that is. It simply has an internal firewall between the "guest" WiFi and the private network.
And many of these routers also have the feature to only enable the guest network at certain hours (e.g. Their business hours).
This is an easy feature to add to routers, and I see it in many. So just shop around (this stack is not a shopping help site) and you should find those features in a good number of routers.

to add to this, its also possible that OPs router has the capability, but its not in the firmware - perhaps DD-WRT can enable it if it doesn't work on stock firmware. Just something to look out for, in case you have such a router by coincidence
