While they' re starting and safety is an even more important issue, I' d recommend some sort of containment rest...

I dont own a digital camera yet so i cant show you what i did for my son but i set his nova up with a old PSE rest.
Its very simple and strong.
Just hard plastic v-shaped plate.
In those days it was called a plate i think....dont remember.
His arrows lay deep in the rest and its working great.

Good luck with bringing your kid into archery.
They lov' it and its great for their education.

Both my kids use a whisker bisquit, as do I. It' s one of the finest kid (and adult) rests available.

The Whisker Biscuit is the best for kids. IMHO My son has one on his Genesis, and it works perfect!

I would think the Whisker Biscuit would be good. I put a Muzzy zero effect on my boy' s junior mag and he loves it. The arrow can' t fall off and he doesn' t have to worry about which way the vanes are rotated. Also, his bow is set at 42 lbs. and he does deer hunt. I would think the Muzzy would not lose any speed and the biscuit might cost you some speed which could be very important to a youngster shooting low pounds. Just a thought. Don

Look at GKF's Funnel rest, much easier on your vanes.

My best friend got his daughter a Parker bow and the Quick-Shot whisker biscuit. It was fun to watch her actually hit the target and not have the arrow fall off the bow and land by her feet. Personally I think the whisker biscuit is the safest rest that you can put on a bow for any shooter to use. Good luck hunting!
