I was about 11-12 when subjects like magick and mysticism first entered my vocabulary. I think it is a very appropriate age for children to start learning about these subjects from a realistic point of view. If parents let their kids grow up on charmed or buffy or dragon ball z or whatever other tv shows they might develope a warped sense about what magic really is.
Parents should not only teach their kids what magick is but also how to use it responsibly. Of course this statement is only valid if magick or magick related subjects fit within the religious structure of the family. In my family my mom is the source of my little sister's religious teachings. And these kids are only 5 and 6 yet they are already being introduced to things like candle magick and prayer as well as tarot cards and astrology. I think its best to get these kids thinking about spiritual subjects on their own as early as possible. With parental guidence of course but at least before society starts to teach them the stereotypes and fluff.
