Smaug, there isn't enough thumb ups in the world for what you're doing with your daughter!!!!

Starting them out young is the only proof against the poisoning of the mind that will come from the teachers she will have to listen to in her later eduction experience. You are giving her real world life experience in what people will tell her the opposite of, and when she gets older, what you are teaching her now will maybe save her life some day, if the right mindset is there. It looks like that is being taken care of.

GOOD FOR YOU AND HER!!!

I made damn sure she could read an analog clock. I need to find time now to continue the cursive lessons.

She also knows how to safely handle a knife and gun. Took her shooting two weekends ago. (S&W M&P 22)

Check out the S&W .380 EZ when she wants to move up the next step. I taught some young ladies with it and it was a very good fit.
 
We did it again tonight, but tonight I tried 91Bravo’s Becker BK9. The weight is about the same as my little Fiskars hatchet, but it’s not all right behind the edge.

It’s LOT sharper; really bites. It doesn’t throw the chips as far or as easily, but it cuts deeper, due to the thinner edge geometry.

I used it for cutting about halfway through branches no more than an inch thick.

I think it’s going to excel at knocking thinner branches off of bigger ones.

I’m too cheap to shoot 380. She’ll have to be tough enough to shoot 9.

I’m really liking 22 Magnum these days too.
