Please, DON'T TOUCH

I think the demo is a good idea. I would consider movers blankets over the speakers. Better yet keep the kid out of the room unattended. Remember some 6 year olds may be too young understand don't touch. I was fortunate that my kids never damaged my systems. My cleaning lady did rip the stylus off of two turntable! while dusting. I never wanted to freak the kids out over the equipment I always want them to feel more important then the stereo. I do joke with them all the time that the stereo is my third child # 1 of 3. My son blew a fuse when he was very little turning the volume to Max by accident. He cried but I laughed and told him not to worry just be careful. He now composes classical music in high school that is amazing and knows classic rock like an enclyopedia. And loves his awesome vintage Music systems a/d/s, Revox , Tandberg, Linn LP12 etc.! Lastly kids need activities like going to the park or being envolved in stuff or they find things to do like drawing on walls or "playing" with your stereo. Keep them busy!
