Unless you are in totality or near totality, I doubt a child would notice anything special is going on. Unless, of course, they notice a bunch of other people staring at the sun through glasses--and then attempt to do the same thing sans glasses. I was just in an area of 70% coverage and away from all the starers, I did not notice anything special going on. It was a bit dimmer at mid-day, but that could have been easily ascribed to cloud coverage.
