Platonic and romantic have always been the same thing for me.
I'm romantic, they're platonic.
Unless they decide to be romantic too, then our friendship is more magical and meaningful.
There is nothing illegal or wrong about romance. Romance doesn't necessarily explicitly imply sexual intimacy.
I want to love everybody, and kiss everyone, nothing wrong with that is there?
I like Grunko story. It's typical, awkwardness around young girl because of deep feelings of fondness. It's not "sexual attraction" it's just fondness, wanting to be nearer, wanting private 1 on 1 time. I call it girlphobia, a reaction to the social stigma that adults shouldn't be enamored by children, when they most certainly should be.
It takes practice, and understanding, learning how to be platonic/romantic about kids. Rules are different.

Re: Please tell me about your platonic friendships!
I have a wonderful friendship with a young neighbor. He's just starting kindergarten. We enjoy gardening together, he's learning this from his Dad. We also enjoy listening to music together, I have a Bluetooth speaker I bring out to our apartment complex's backyard. I've also started playing my guitar again, and I'm hoping one of these days, he'll be out with his Dad or Mom, when I bring it out with me.
