Default Hunting with children

I am going to be taking my 7 year old niece squirrel hunting over the Christmas break. She has been begging to come along with me and I am really excited to take her on her first hunt, but I'm a little concerned that she may get bored if we're not just shooting the lights out. I know some of you guys have kids and take them hunting, so I was wondering if you have any suggestions on how to keep her attention and make it an experience she will want to try again. I'm thinking I am going to get her a pair of binoculars and let her do the "spotting" since she isn't old enough to hold a gun or shoot yet. I might also get her a squirrel call and let her bark on that. Okay, I appreciate any advice you have. Wish us luck.
