I'll chime in....
I'm 47 and have had my BJ7 for about 8 years now. My daughter has already laid
claim to it when my feeble knees can't take it any more. (but that's going to
be a long wait)

A couple of years ago, I planned a club day trip that was supposed to
involve children. It was a trip to the Charles Shultz "Peanuts" museum in
Santa Rosa, CA. It seems the adults were more interested than any children.
After British Car Week, another opportunity is the National Ice Cream Social
in August. What kids don't like ice cream? Take them in the Healey and it
is a double whammy.
