I suppose you could try it with microsoft paint. You'd have to show them how to use the scissors tool though (star-shaped button at the top) to cut out the heads.

2 freeware image manipulation programs:

paint.NET found here

GIMP found here

there are tutorials on both sites: by clicking on the tutorials link in the text below the pic of the car on the paint.NET page
and
under Documentation tab for GIMP

GIMP is probably slightly easier to use and install than paint.NET, both are good for the cost - nil
