That's a tough position, and a major reason we don't let 7 year olds in our school. At 8, you can train them to take it kind of seriously. That one year, in my opinion, makes a huge difference.

Dealing with the situation at hand, I think it would be more awkward to pull him off the stage than to let him finish. But that would be his final "performance" of the night and there would definitely be a little talk afterwards!

Agree with you I wouldn't take him off stage, but would seriously consider getting him in a demo again ...

I would not have pulled the student from the stage. I would have pointed to another student or a group of students who were not jumping around and say, "wow, I like how you are not jumping around and you are focused and being respectful of those around you. Your awesome!" Usually that works. If it did not, I may afterwords ask him/her, did you have to use the restroom, I noticed you were having a tough time standing still.
