Depends on the laws where you live. In general, an "assualt" is a threat to do bodily harm, accompanied by the present apparent ability to do that harm. A "battery" is carrying out that threat. The charge will be dependent on the type of threat.

If an adult is threatening to assault a child, they may be charged with endangering the welfare of a child. Every situation is different and it would be up to the DA whether or not to press charges.
