Here's a ranking of the pets from safest to most dangerous for a family with small children, considering factors like temperament, size, potential for harm, and suitability as a household pet:

1. Golden Retriever: Safest. Golden Retrievers are known for their friendly, gentle, and tolerant nature, making them excellent family pets, especially around small children.

2. Maine Coon: Maine Coons are typically gentle and friendly cats. They are known for their sociable nature and generally do well with children, though supervision is always recommended.

3. Ball Python: Ball pythons are considered one of the safest pet snakes. They are typically docile, non-venomous, and have a relatively small size (about 3 to 5 feet long). While handling a snake around small children requires caution, ball pythons are generally safe.

4. Boa Constrictor: More dangerous than a ball python due to their larger size (up to 13 feet long) and strength. While not venomous, boa constrictors can pose a risk to small children if not properly handled or if unsupervised, making them less suitable for families with young kids.

5. Pitbull: Although individual pitbulls can be friendly and loving, they have a strong bite and a powerful build. They require proper training and socialization. There is some risk due to their strength and potential for aggressive behavior if not properly managed.

6. Serval: Servals are wild cats and, while they can be kept as exotic pets, they are not domesticated. They have strong hunting instincts, can be unpredictable, and may not be safe around small children due to their wild nature.

7. Polar Bear: Most dangerous. Polar bears are wild animals, extremely powerful, and inherently dangerous to humans. They are not suitable as pets and pose a severe risk to anyone, especially small children.

Conclusion:  
For a family with small children, traditional domestic pets like a Golden Retriever or a Maine Coon are safest. Exotic and wild animals, such as servals and polar bears, should not be considered pets due to their potential danger and unpredictable behavior.
