Oh God. For anyone thinking of doing this in the future, do not play with deer. If deer get scared, they will trample you. It’s all fun and games until a 100 lb animal starts stomping your child into the ground. Even a fawn that size could cause some serious injury to that child.

Growing up in the NorthWoods, naturally I've seen deer fight. They rear up on their hind legs and kick with their fronts as they come back down. There's about a 50% chance of a mama doe either doing that, or just running. I guarantee if mama decides to fight you're not gonna have a good time
