Winter white or robo?

[Jeir]

Like with all hamsters, it's a coin toss whether they'll be snugglebugs or want to be left alone, or somewhere in between. In general, robos are considered more 'hands off' than other species, as they are so small, fast, and generally more nervous than the others.

Simply for these reasons alone, I would not recommend a robo if you want a hamster that can interact with children. Even the calmest, friendliest robo might get nervous, and might get hurt (or worse) if it tried to escape. Generally, a syrian is considered a better choice, as they are larger and slower, but if you have experience with and prefer WWs, there's no reason to not continue with them.
