Do they make shatter proof glass kitchen tables tops?
Not that I know of... there are plenty of shatter-proof cups and utensils out there, which are great for kids if you want something that looks a little better than plastic... however I've never seen a glass-top kitchen table labeled as completely 'shatterproof.' My advice would be to look for a glass-top table that is relatively heavy with sturdy legs, making it very difficult to tip over and unlikely to shatter.

What kind of glass is used for tops of coffee tables?
The glass you use for your coffee table will depend on your table. If the edges of the glass are not going to be exposed any glass that fits will work. If the edges of the glass are exposed you will want to find glass that has beveled edges to eliminate the sharp corners and edges of the glass. Tempered glass is used for safety purposes. If shattered, it will not splintered into dangerous shards; instead, it will crumble into small cubes, just like a car windshield does when broken. That said, thicker glass used for table tops is often NOT tempered because it is not likely to shatter. This is true of tabletops that are 1/2" to 3/4" thick. Anything less than 1/2" should always be tempered. This site has an excellent FAQ with info on the subject: http://www.glasstopsdirect.com/faqs.php
