When we were taking him to obedience class there was one time where a little girl came in for the class after us and she sat with Chip for about 45 minutes to an hour just letting him sniff her. Eventually he was warming up to her enough to take a treat, which was amazing, because he never takes treats from anyone except us and my family. Also there were two little kids in the class training their dogs and he got used to them. He's fine if the kids know how to properly handle a dog and are patient, but if they don't give him enough time to adjust or are doing things like pulling hair, chasing, etc. he will snap.
