I was too young to really be much of any help at he time, but I was in my grandfathers shop constantly watching him gunsmith by the age of four. He would usually hand me an old broken stock and a sheet of sandpaper and let me go at it. Cleaning guns after shooting was something my brother and I were always allowed to do as long as we did it right. Guns get double checked for safety and the right tools were used. Anything worth doing is worth doing right. It's a good lesson for a child to associate with firearms.
