What are some of the first trapping items you have purchased for your kids as their own?

What age we talking yote?

Almost 6 and 4.

We bought my 4 year old daughter a dog proof last year

I'm think you should go with 4 oz of really skunky lure.... Lol
Think of the fun and memories that would be made.....

Mine are older (10, 13), but we are a DIY bunch, so we build things like sifters, hammers, trowels, etc. I'm getting them some DPs, and they have a couple 1.5 cs... mainly stuff for coon, to peak their interest.

each a .22lr, dozen 1.5 cs, dozen DPs, bait, lure, sifter, maybe a groundhog 3- in-1 tool, stakes, kneepads, tote bags to carry everything, Polaris ranger, and a trapline dog. do that for each kid they will be set.

Got my 5 and 7 year old some dps and bait two years ago they just wanna to go trapping with dad so it was easy stuff for them

Band-Aids

Rubber knee boots.

Moosetrot

1 1/2 coils. Trap can be used to trap just about any thing.

a little pack basket , so they can be like dad ,

maybe carry a rat out of woods or a mink ,

I still remember when my brother and I got our own packbaskets when we were very little.

1.5 coils

I say dps they are pretty easy put some cat food in them and Catch Coons.

DP setter.
When I find out bout a kid needing 1, I send them 1.
If yours need 1, please PM me their name and address.

I vote pack basket and knee boots. I made this one out of a cheap garbage can and a set of suspenders split for the straps. Made two for like 15 bucks. The boys loved them.
One trap in each and a walking stick completes the look and a muskrat in them on day two makes happy kids.

Good luck with the kids on the line make sure to have snacks. Lol

this ^^^^

If they are 4 and 6 why not let them handle what you have and see how that goes, that would give you an idea of what items they want or can set and work with.
