Well on my way to getting utterly wasted, woo.
While I'm still sober enough to type, got a question for you rabid readers out there. Can you guys think of any book series or stories you either read as a kid or own that involve younger children, say, about ages 7-12, in a science fiction setting? And before I get three million people saying "OMG ENDERS GAME" I'm aiming for something written for, as well as featuring, that demographic (or at least can be found in the young adult section.)
ETA: and by science fiction, I mean spaceships and aliens and being all in THE FEWCHAR.
Yes, this has to do with feeding the plotbunny.
BACK TO DRINKING MYSELF STUPID HAHAHAHAWOOOOOOOOOOO
ETA: omg this is awesome fail:

Tom Swift books
Heinlein's The Rolling Stones, which is basically Space Family Robinson
The Human Commonwealth series by Hal Dean Foster, also known as the "Pip and Flinx series" kid and alien-flying-venom-spitting-dragon pet.
These suggestions are all from [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com], and if you don't get quite what you're looking for let me know and I'll toss the question at [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com], who's basically done research on this kind of topic. You might actually also check out her book The Intergalactic Playground for ideas, actually.
