Usually whenI take out my kidsI use my ground blind so that their movement is more concealed.I bring along some note pads for them to draw on and some books to look at.I also bring a blanket to put on the ground in case they get tired and want to take a nap.I try not tomake them walk along ways so that they don't get too tired before the hunt even begins. Last year I took my 2 yr old daughter and we hunted from my 16ft double treestand. She only lasted for about a half hour and then we went on a hike. She had a blast and I had fun taking her.Obviously I don't take them into my prime hunting areas but area that I feel I have a good chance of harvesting a doe when they are with. I don't force any of my three children to go but am very happy when oneasks to go with.
