I LOVE my Children's Python! ...sounds like a bumper sticker (I'd gladly represent). I got my male (pretty sure its male still working on the popping thing) from the NARBC show in Chicago in 2005. This guy was probably no more than a week or two old it was SO tiny. I struggled to get him to eat and did alot of reading online but finally got him going. Feeding has never been an issue since. This male is very curious and usually has to inspect anything/anyone near his tub. He tolerates handling very well and is very exploratory but not hard to hold on to.

I finally picked up a female this last weekend...again a find at the Chicago NARBC show. She has already eaten for me which is a great sign. She has been very active and exploratory also, as I write this I can see her moving about.

There is just "something" about these small pythons that attracts me they are so cool and their personalities definitely range as Daniel said. I plan on having them in my collection permanently and can't wait to breed them. Do your research on their care, in some aspects they actually require less and can be quite hardy.
