Can't Post

I will be taking a young child to Acadia for his second time. His first time he enjoyed a couple of the easy pitches (5.2-5.5) on South Bubble as they were more slab-like; but found a lot of Otter Cliffs difficult (5.5) because of it being more vertical and blocky. I noticed to the left (climbers left) of the plaque wall and cave area there were a couple people climbing with children, but couldn't find anything in the guide book. Anyone familiar with this, apparently shorter section of Otter Cliffs that is maybe 200-300' to the left? Any thoughts on real easy 5.1-5.3 blocky/vertical routes or 5.1-5.5 slab like climbing at Acadia? Doesn't have to be long... just something fun for a 6 year old who loves learning.
