Whenever, I am around kids during cold seasons, I always get sick. Around adults I am fine, but kids always make me sick. Is my immune system weak or something?

Kids are unhygienic and also are sick more often. Holidays are also stressful in addition to being during cold and flu season, so that makes your immune system weaker. It’s not like you’re somehow immune to adults’ viruses but susceptible to kids’, but lots of people do notice enough of a difference that it can seem that way.
This is pretty close, from my understanding. The way it’s explained to me, kids are often in environments that expose them to different germs than we may be around, different strains of bacteria and viruses, so while we may have developed immunity to strain a, they may be exposed to strain b. Plus all the other stuff you mentioned.
