Skipping pages while reciting the Qur'an Shareef in childhood

Q: My question is that as a kid I finished Quran one time, except I did not do it with sincerity. I was a kid and whenever Qari Sahib (Teacher) was not listening I used to skip pages. What should I do now as a penalty to not be punished in the hereafter?

A: Since it was done in your childhood days, you will not be accountable for it.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
