My boys 3 and 5 love climbing the small apple trees and magnolia in my garden. They each have a chainsaw to use (a top handled btb) and a stihl for the groundie. they're not doing the trees much good...

 

I guess I'm teaching them bad habits because they always free climb and I've seen them using the saw in the tree wihout a rope and harness and one handed!
