Size of stovepipe needs to be matched to the size of the stove in order for it to draw properly. You're talking about little stoves, here, so your existing flue may be too big.

I wouldn't worry too much about the child and the stove. Most of us either grew up in a house with woodstove right out in the middle of everything, or raised our kids with one- many, including me, did both. You'd be surprised how fast they learn- just another of the bumps and scrapes that are part of growin' up.
