Working with my 7 year old daughter, I am kneeling behind her with her hand in mine and we make the motions: lifting line, backcast, stop, forward, stop, backward etc. calling out each movement of this rhythm. I take a second to point her how to how the line bends the rod to explain the loading effect. Then I let her go at it for about 6 minutes and 38 seconds and we're on to another activity. Oh, don't use your bamboo!
