I have! And based on everything else I've seen, I have to assume it was an accident, or amazing direction. So I'm just going to ST[F]O. StayTheFudgeOn.

Having seen other many other people work with children, I can say you can't really direct children. They either have it or they don't. She was also really good in Black Swan and V for Vendetta sans the "okay" British accent that didn't really bother me.
