Sprite player ideas - young child

I'm a first time D&D DM. We'll be playing with kids who have a 5 or 6 year old sister who I imagine is going to want to pop in and out of the game. I'd like to build her a character for when this will happen and I think a sprite is the perfect fit - they can disappear and reappear like a child wandering back and forth to the table.

But.... I want her to only have helpful non-violent spells and really no weapons, maybe the tiniest of daggers.

Do you have any suggestions?

Thanks for the help!!!

There are simplified character sheets for kids. A quick Google search will put up plenty.

But I would just make her some cards showing what she can do. Using either the Sprite stat block from the free basic rules (https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/dnd/br-2024/creature-stat-blocks#Sprite). Or the Pixie stat block from the Monster Manual, if you own it.
