You are aware of the problem. This makes you liable if someone with a severe
reaction is stung.

If you have the meds, you could always have the parent be the one who hands
it to the kid. That is what they had me do on an airplane before.

We have another visitor stung by a yellowjacket this weekend, a child this
time, so she didn't have a bad reaction.  The parents saw our warning signs
and decided to walk the path anyway.  My question -- it's been recommended
here that we include an antihistimine like Benedryl in our first aid kit;
could we be facing potential legal problems if we dispense a medication like
this?
