You're looking for a random story generator

There are lots of those on the internet. The first one I found Plot Generator. It gave me quite a few prompts that weren't child-suitable, but I hit gold when I randomly generated a Fantasy Blurb.

Garth Butterscotch, the Troll
A Fantasy Novel
by Untitled writer

In a cave there lived a beautiful, bendy troll named Garth Butterscotch. Not a magic sensational, killer cave, filled with soup and a false smell, nor yet a pink, minuscule, violent cave with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a troll-cave, and that means shelter.

One day, after a troubling visit from the dragon Charity Wu, Garth leaves his cave and sets out in search of three giant trousers. A quest undertaken in the company of girls, people and fluffy robots.

In the search for the dragon-guarded trousers, Garth Butterscotch surprises even himself with his intelligence and skill as a housekeeper.

During his travels, Garth rescues a kettle, an heirloom belonging to Charity. But when Charity refuses to try shouting, their friendship is over.

However, Charity is wounded at the Battle of Blenheim and the two reconcile just before Garth engages in some serious shouting.

Garth accepts one of the three giant trousers and returns home to his cave a very wealthy troll.

I also found the Scholastic Story Starters, which are completely kid oriented, and should generator child-friendly plots.

Look for Mythology collections for kids

Generally speaking, myths and legends tend to be the opposite of child friendly. But a lot of work has been done collecting the less adult myths (or sanitizing the more adult myths) and collating them together for children to read. As a bonus, this gives you a good opportunity to introduce your child to other cultures they might not interact with on a regular basis.
