"cow power" and "Super Cow Powers" are suitable for children.

"horse power" sounds like an explicit term from a Russ Meyer film.

At least in Germany "PS", aka "horse power" is replaced by "kW" (most
likely because of the sexist undertone of "PS"), but nobody actually
knows what a "kW", the non-picture language actually is for.

"Cow powers" are clean, understandable picture language and cute.
