  1. If he is slow at learning or scared of falling (I was really slow and
    terrified of falling) I'd start him on the 12", since you already have
    one. Work on level I and II stuff, then transfer that to the 20" when
    he has the skill/guts.

    I'm learning how to ride SIF, SIB, and backwards. It's a lot easier on
    my 16" CX than on my 20" or 24", mainly because falling is less scarry
    (lower height & slower speed).

  2. You could upgrade to a 16" when his a little more confident then a 20"
    when he has level 2 skills. It's how i taught my little cousin to ride
    and now his riding my coker. 😄
