Supercool! My son is seven and he plays as my character's familiar when he comes.
We made him a really simple guy with one spell and a dagger, just to get him used to the basics. When he doesnt play, that character goes back to just being my familiar.
We don't care about rules so much, so it works out. I like playing with him more than some of the grownups because he just wants to kill monsters and loot, and has no attention span for roleplaying with annoying goblins for 45 minutes. (I wonder where he gets this tendency from)
