In my opinion, 4 1/2 is too young for any type of firearm. Even a BB gun.
This is exactly what I did. My daughter got her's for Christmas before she turned five in January. She started shooting Christmas day. The Crickets are great rifles to start with. About 2 1/2 lbs, peep sights, and accurate. I think they are a great rifle the teach with.I bought my daughter a pink cricket .22 for Christmas when she was 4.5. No regrets.
