   I don’t believe your camera has the ability to adjust the shutter speed. If it has a sports setting, you could try that. You can read about your camera here—http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/compare_…

   Not much but to fool the camera. Your camera has neither aperture nor shutter speed priority modes. Your other problem is you are attempting to shoot your kids in much lower light than if you shot outside.
   What you are describing is called shutter lag … nearly all P&S cameras have some, from around 0.4 to 3 seconds, depending upon whether your camera can focus quickly or if you are using flash. Only DSLR’s have shutter lag that is measured in millisecondshttp://www.dpreview.com/reviews/compare_…
