On the topic of never handling a gun unsupervised. I think it's helpful to explain that any time they want to handle any gun they should just ask, and you'll always let them under your supervision. No guns are off limits for unloaded handling. Takes the curiosity out of it.
Guns are tools, (really cool tools) but they aren't pieces of fine china. Let the kid get his paws all over it. Let them try and rack the slide, shoulder it, look down the sights, then clean it up and put it away.
There's a lot less motivation to sneak around if you know all you have to do is ask and someone will let you look it over and hold it.
