>I'm not a fan of languages designed "for children".
This, I think if I was helping I child get into programming I would get them started with QB64 [1], [2]. Then once they mastered that move on to HTML/CSS/JS and C or Go.
Personally I started with GWBASIC (at age 7 or 8), then moved to QBASIC, then learned VB, and then C/C++. Then in college I learned Java and via work learned C#. Nowdays I program full time in Go. (I of course have learned many other languages and platforms along the way , but those were always what I wrote in when left to my own devices).
