Thread: Hunting with kids under 10 - must haves

The hunt with my 6yo was more like a mobile snack fest. The attention span just isnt there yet. So I just let her call the shots with a little bit of advise like ‘ shall we have a look over that ridge’. We did a couple of hours before she decided she wanted to go.

Went for a walk with my 9 yo a couple of weeks back in the same place and she was unreal. She is dead set its her turn on the trigger next time.

Good work. 6 year olds and 9 year olds can be worlds apart.
