While talking to children I always get down to their level and I don't do all the stuff that adults do. Bending at the waist and talking to kids is intimidating. I'll sit on the floor, play with their toys with them, and talk to them like I do adults I just change my words so that they can understand me. Generally this makes it so that children are more receptive to me. Oh and high fives work wonders especially if you make some kind of noise when you hit their hand. It can be as easy as "BAM."
