The "Clown in trouble" scenario is one that is played out time and again on both the professional, and Living room circuit. Yes, you will have trouble with the little heathens from time to time. I really try to keep everyone from touching my nose. IF you can't prevent it, then grasp their hand and tell them "ONE FINGER ONLY". then, use your hand to determine how hard they touch you . Stepping on your big funny shoes is another great delight. i have asked told them flat out, "Hey, I have been very nice to you, I even made you a special balloon. (Or whatever) I haven't hurt you, why do you want to hurt me? That isn't playing nice or fair." I lay it on the line with them. Sometimes all you can do is leave the area or get an adult to calm things down.
Cheers,
Scruffy
