There is no rule against tagging in the head. However, if it is a malicious tag, that warrants a warning or ejection. Also, if it is a close play and the runner is tagged in the head, he is usually safe.
For 7-8 year olds, you did the right thing, try to find someone to quickly resolve the issue, but after a few minutes, whatever the umpire has just live with it.
