I would start a kid on Etoys from Squeakland.org, first show her some video demo. And show her how to script Minecraft from Etoys. Also Microblocks for hardware. Then Thonny and a $4 Raspberry pico led blinking and temperature with ADC, then have her measure her skin voltage. Then look at Squeak Morphic (Lawson English tutorials on Youtube). Indeed, maybe only 10% of kids like it. The rest should go play with World of Goo. Then the Powder Toy.
