Always stress the basics and SAFETY SAFETY SAFETY. We also do a safety briefing on the way to the range and before we start to shoot.
Take care.
I just bought my boys (10 and 11 y/o) a Davey Cricket .22 LR single shot bolt action rifle with a peep sight. Before going out shooting, they had to sit through a safety class and pass dads safety test questions. They did well and had a great time. We are going out again this weekend.
