I think it's a great idea. Heading is part of the game and should always be but at that tender age just kick the ball and move.
Good call, children's skulls aren't fully developed at that age so the brain is very sensitive to knocks to the head
It should increase skills to better control the ball.
Another end to Warnock type defence ball

A good move. Mind you, you see hardly any headers in mini football anyway.
