Welcome to the forum !!!
My daughter debuted with 5 years, and I assure you that it is best to tell things as they are.Without false spectative.I assure you that they assume everything much better ... it is possible that it is difficult to prick at the beginning, before what you have to stay inflexible, there is no other ... here many moms have played with their children to click their dolls,Or they have given them some small reward after injected ....

All the best.
