There are tons of great opportunities out there for young kids starting to hunt. I know of one guy that has some property in Brigham city that offers to let kids Goose and duck hunt for free, this is a guided trip and pretty much a guaranteed success.
The DWR also reserves a lot of tags for the youth first so right now is a great time to get kids started.
As for the age thing, I think when you think she is mature enough to handle guns and you feel perfectly comfortable with her holding a gun, then she is ready. I think hunter safety begins @ age twelve but it might have changed. Good luck,
