Its all about having fun.  I've taken my daughter the last 2 years with me.   She just turned 7.  Luckily I was on private ground so we setup in a blind the 1st hunt.   She had more fun watching the decoys. She's been learning to run a box call, tries to use a tube call.   We made 2 wing bone calls and I let her paint them. She plays with 1 of them trying to call.   Most times she falls asleep in the chair.  She's gone dove hunting with me before we're all we did was play in the tall grass and take pictures. Never even shot at a bird that day.  But she had a blast.  Deer hunting she does pretty good at sitting still.   I'd trade the single stick for a tripod.

I started my kids out in a blind. They both have ADHD. The blind allows them to move a little and it not be torture for them. Shooting sticks and food:) Good luck!!
