Kids would love it.
On suggestion to all about dessert tables and kids, try and make sure that there is a variety. As a kid never was upset when only one dessert was served and I couldn't eat it. My parents' attitude was it is going to happen sometimes. We usually stopped and got me a mint ice cream cone on the way home. (God those clerks must have thought my parents so rude, since sis and cousin C didn't get one)
I did feel bad when there were several different types of desserts and I still couldn't have one, because every single one contained either peanuts or chocolate*. One of my cousins actually put and end to it by saying, how come with X desserts there still isn't one Kimberly can eat. After that they made sure to have some type of small fruit tart.
*It wasn't until labeling laws were changed a few years later that the family found out a bunch of food I refused to eat was made with peanut oil. (They used to just say vegetable oil, then it was changed where they had to list each kind of oil.)
