ATV's for Kids

Ok guys and gals...Need some help on this one.

I want to purchase a couple of ATV's for my boys, ages 6 and 8. There seems to be some confusion over the federal law which limits the engine size for the kids. Now I looked at a 50cc and a 70cc and both my boys are to small for the frame size of these. Looking on line there seem to be some kids ATV's wit limiters and safety cutoff equipment. These are up to 110cc with age range of 6-12.

So what is the Federal law? Can I put my boys on these 110cc legally and safely? Has anyone else used these kids ATV's...How are they?

Thanks

Here are the specific laws for Viriginia.
