I'd say with a scope to start with. When my daughter got started I wanted her to learn with open sights first to get her technique down. But it was more like work. Then I let her use the boss's 10/22 with a scope and she loved it. Now she has a blast shooting paper targets and pumpkins and stuff like that. When she's more experienced we'll go back to sights. I think she was around 10 when we started.
I was half her age when I started shooting and using the sights was my only option. I think being a young boy on a farm helped me pick up on it a lot faster than most kids starting out. We've lived in town my daughter's whole life so her outdoor experience is a bit different than mine was.
