ANSWER: Basically Jewish kids above the age of 6 had to wear the Star of David just like all of the adult Jewish population. On September 1, 1941 Germany passed a law requiring all Jews over the age of 6 to wear a yellow Jewish Star of David on the left side of their chest. This was then repeated in several of the Western European nations under Nazi occupation on April 28, 1942. Again the decree ordering all Jews to wear the Yellow Star also included an exemption for children aged 6 and under. So it appears that, in general, Jewish children were required to wear the Star of David if they were above the age of 6. Therefore, the answer is yes, countless Jewish children were forced to wear the Yellow Star of David except those who were 6 years old or younger.
SEPTEMBER 1, 1941- 'German Jews above the age of six are forced to wear a yellow Star of David sewed on the left side of their clothes with the word "Jude" printed in black.' (Florida Center for Instructional Technology, College of Education, University of South Florida)
APRIL 28, 1942- 'In accordance with Paragraph 45 of Order 138/41 of the Reich Commissioner for the Occupied Dutch Territories concerning public security, I order the following:
1) A Jew who appears in public is obliged to wear a Jewish star.
2) For the implementation of this order a Jew is everyone who was defined as a Jew according to order no. 189/40 concerning the registration of enterprises. Children under the age of sixare not included in this order.'

Why is the Star of David so important in Judaism as a symbol?
In the last 3-4 centuries its use has become very widespread, but it actually isn't an important symbol. It isn't mentioned in the Tanakh (Hebrew Bible) or the Talmud (Jewish Oral Law). Among Jews, the value of the Star of David mainly comes from its nature as a symbol of Jewish unity and solidarity. As all Jews were united under David's Kingship, so too are they united under the Star of David.
