I would definitely "tent" it with aluminum foil, just in case she gets curious!

That was the method I learned from my grandmother years ago, before we owned a "candy thermometer" and still the one I use, as then I don't have an extra item to clean, and it is just as accurate! If I am doing something pickier, I will use the thermometer, though!
