I have some two man ladder stands that I bought specifically to take my kids hunting. I use the "camo skirts", not burlap, but some type of material that has no holes in it, dont know exactly what it is.
The main purpose is to conceal movement. Kids are kids. They arent going to sit for two or three hours without moving. This way they can get away with some. Also warmth. The ones I got do break the wind and although the bottom is open, it does add some warmth for the short guys. I think they are great for taking kids hunting.
I am concerned about other hunters not seeing the orange though. I take an extra cheapy hunter orange vest with me and tie it around the tree above the stand when we are in it. Cant miss that.
