Then start taking them all to the range, or you can start them off with airsoft. Make Shute if you use airsoft they treat it the same as a regular firearm. Habits learned with toys or models will roll over when using the real thing. Her comfort level should greatly increase. You could do the teaching yourself, but a firearms instructor teaching may be easier for her to accept.
