The children you saw likely had no idea of the Nazi connotation of the swastika..
The symbol was used in Buddhist countries for centuries before the Nazi's adopted it.
per Wikipedia: "In East Asia, the swastika is a Chinese character, defined by Kangxi Dictionary, published in 1716, as "synonym of myriad, used mostly in Buddhist classic texts", by extension, the word later evolved to represent eternity and Buddhism."
