re: 4 year olds first deer hunt

I have 3 girls I take.

I usually bring a duffel bag of blankets and stuff to bundle mine up with and to make a soft place for them to lay down.

Take the kids shoes off as soon as he gets in the stand. If you don't, he'll kick the walls and floor repeatedly for some reason.

Bring enough snacks for 4 grown men.

Don't plan on sitting for long. The longer you sit, the more they get bored. I started out with 30 minute hunts for mine. My oldest daughter (6) can sit for about 1.5 hrs now before she starts to complain.

Shoot an armadillo with your rifle. Kids love that
