Just the other day, my 9 yo little sister watched me do Court of Oryx for some calcified fragments and a flawless Trials run.
She thinks the game is amazing and while watching me, wrote a list of tips for me in her notebook. I thought I'd share these with you as some of them are pretty cute/funny. These are from the perspective of a 9 year old, but some hit close to home.
#1
Move around and jump.
#2
Dont blow yourself up. Blam!
#3
Make expressions, Aw
#4
Reload :)
#5
Always victory dance . Horray
#6
Do not fall of the map :(
#7
Break their shield and then kill them. Ha ha ha
#8
Coach him/her. Say your out of ammo.
#9
Always have a fireteam
#10
The Cryptarch sucks. But they give out presents.
#11
Don't get sniped. Don't die for trials.
#12
Support your friends. Whoo Hoo! Go Hezen
#13
Kill them out of the air. Your dead.
#14
Shot guns are too good for you.
#15
Don't forget boons. Argh
Edit: Added photo. I am also disappointed in some of these comments, but I should have expected those that make this forum toxic to show up. Keep it clean.

Super adorable, and I think part of what makes the game special. Love it or hate it, Destiny has whatever bit of magic that keeps the game alive. The community and teamwork through fireteams for sure, but the "shared experiences" feeling is tops in Destiny. If you've played Destiny for at least 3 months, everyone has some common ground: - What is Xur selling? - Ok Iron Banner Time - How to fight Oryx. All commonly discussed, you can LFG a group and assuming they know the raid, you can speak some pretty intricate details without ever having played with a person before: "Ok so are we running 16 orb strat?" "Yeah, assigned spots for detonation or last location" ...etc. The fact that you can be deep into Destiny strategy, or be like your Daughter, and admiring observer and still gain some insight into cosmetic elments of the game just shows the fascination with the world it has on people who witness it.
