I have just started doing shows and talks for little kids, but have not charged only got a donation the first time. I guess it could work out quite a bit for petrol and time.

I'm sure it will depend on each situation. If it's a corporate demo, go wild, if it's a school, negotiate.

I personally prefer the donation scheme, if anything.
Can you really do that? Well, I just did!
