My youngest is just 5 months, so I have a few months to find just the right weapon. lol

You can never start them too young!

My grandson got a Cricket for his 3rd. Christmas present. It did arrive late, but he didn't care. He will not get to fire it for a while yet, but he loves to hold it and look at it.

Good for you, teach them right from the start.

My grandson (2 years old) has a cricket. He just doesn't know it yet. It is the same one my daughters and then son started with when they were 4 and 5 years old.
They are light weight and great for them to learn the basics on. his first rifle will most likely be a savage 340 in 30/30 cal, but that could change. He may be like his dad and grandad and shoot left handed, at which point he would get some type of lever.

In a couple years if you are ever looking for gophers for her to hunt with grandpa and get around the Smith river valley be sure to look me up!
