Issues with npm run watch in the understrap-child

[sbcmeg]

I have followed the setup instructions for undersrap-child, and have the parent understrap folder.

When I go to run npm run watch.

I get the following errors within terminal:

`> understrap-child@1.1.0 watch /Users/meg/htdocs/sbc/wp-content/themes/understrap-child

npm-run-all --parallel watch-run-*

understrap-child@1.1.0 watch-run-js /Users/meg/htdocs/sbc/wp-content/themes/understrap-child

Can you provide the results of node -v ?

I was running into the same issue on a Mac, and realized that my default node is 8.10 I think. Updating node solved the issue.
