I think you could start to take her on short trips this year. Don't plan on getting anything when you do, and don't get mad if she spooks the animals.
She can actually take Hunters Safety at any age, as they removed age restrictions on small game hunting. Use some judgement there, as she is still a little young to "get it".
You should take her to the range for some shooting. I've taken my 6 yr old already, and she loves it. She has shot my .22 and my .17. Have good ear protection, and just let her have fun. That is the key now. If they don't have fun, they won't want to try any more.
