Yes, once a child has had chicken pox, he or she cannot cannot usually get the disease again and so could hang out with a child who has the disease.

However, he or she should touch the open, oozing sores on the infected child, nor share anything that would transfer saliva. If the infected child is sneezing, that child should be kept at home until they are not sneezing.
