That depends on how young they are. Children under 6 shouldn't really watch 3D and an adult should supervise children over 6 when watching 3D. You should also know that active 3D TVs like those from Samsung or Sony are more likely to cause headaches, eyestrains and dizziness. They use shutter glass 3D technology which can give a lot of stress to kids' eyes. If you're going to let your kids watch 3D, they should watch a passive 3D TV rather than an active 3D TV. Passive 3D TVs use lightweight 3D glasses that use different technology than shutter glass tech. I have a LG Cinema 3D TV and I don't worry too much about my kids watching it because it's flicker free and doesn't make the kids dizzy and not bad for the eyes because they use passive 3D glasses.

3D TVs can make you sick if you watch it too much, and it is the worst for the children who watch over six or seven hours a day. However It depends on which 3D technology that 3D TV uses. I heard Cinema 3D TV is more comfortable for your eyes and less harmful than active SG sets because it is flicker and crosstalk free 3D.

There is no evidence that suggests 3D televisions are bad for health. However, there is advice that young children shouldn't watch.
