Whenever I go to a new area where ticks may be a problem, I do what I call the "tick-flick" before getting into my truck.
Check your clothes for the little suckers, and "flick" them off.
As for youngsters, give them a thorough checkover, since they are closer to the ticks target area than an adult, meaning that the kids are well within the ticks strike zone from head to toe. Adults are taller, so we will see them lower on the body/clothing.
Check it out just to be safe.
