Sounds like someone overeacting due to a bad happening. This is a common
occurence in the SCA. The next time someone tells you that no kids are
allowed, ask their parents if it is okay and make sure the minor waiver is
signed .
This is enough to satisfy the "rule" makers.
And I heartily encourage you to continue to teach the children.....the
youngest child I have taught in an SCA kitchen has been 4 (she had minimal
hand to eye coordination, but she loves to mix things. I gave her tasks that
I knew she could handle and were not time sensitive to me. And the funniest
thing.....Her parents said she ate everything at the feast saying "I made
this, or I saw how they make this". She ATE everything, not bad for a "picky"
eater.
It takes alot of patience and you must be concise with your directions, but a
happy kitchen it will be. I like to have (medieval or Renaissance) music, and
I encourage chatter as well. I learn from them as well. (Pokemon, BackStreet
Boys, Britney, their families,etc.) It's amazing what they talk about.

As a matter of fact, I am teaching a Childrens cooking clas at our University
this Saturday, and I have been told that the sign up list is full already!
Cool!
