Not sure this expresses value, but I do have lots of kids running through my garden. Here's how I deal with it.
I like to say that "trees have feelings". I'll ask "How would like someone to pull your hair" or "would you like me to twist your arm off?"
I always get this look of horror as the image of me holding thier detached arm in the air must cross thier little minds. Of course I stare at them with the seriousness of an aging librarian tired of all the talking.
I usually walk away slowly, then give a quick glance back, just so they know I mean business.
Then I giggle to myself.
Works every time.
