Head Tags in Child Theme?

    Sometimes, a plugin or css script requires you to add some html in between the head tags of your theme.

    The header.php file is in the parent theme right? That's where the head tags are right? But I think I'd like to put the html in the child theme, so it's not overwritten by the next theme update. So, can I create a header.php file for the child theme and put the html code in there?

    Would this allow my plugin to work properly, and not have to recopy html code in the head tags after each time I update the theme?

    Would this work? And would there be any issues with this I'd need to know? Thanks.
