For the really slight framed kiddos, the discontinued TC hotshot is super light, and decently accurate.

The CZ Scout is a great gun to grow with the kiddo too.
Never cared for the chipmunks or crickets because of the manual cocking lever that takes 20 lbs of force to cock.

Regarding the 10/22 verses S&W M&P .22, how do the issues of weight verses adjustable length shoulder stock work out for your kids?
I agree re: bolt action v. Semiauto, although for their first ever shot, I would only put one in the magazine. Showing them that senisutos are not inherently evil will also become increasingly important.

Just personal preference, but I like the 10/22 10 shot magazine because it is flush with the receiver as well as the Marlin 60 tubular magazine because it doesn't extend below the receiver either. 20 or 30 something shot magazines gives you extended shooting time between reloading, but can hamper shooting off a bench when developing your sight picture and trigger pull skills.
Good points above. "Walking in the woods.." is a perfect place for a lever action .22. It seems that Marlin is no longer producing them, but Henry is:

6 and 4 years old might be a little small for them, still. Does any other company make a Cricket-sized levergun?

Probably not Cricket-sized. But there is a youth version of the Henry.

When I was a kid, I saw my friends do some stupid things with airguns. My dad always believed in starting kids out on a .22 simply because they would respect it. That is what I do as well, for the same reason.
