With that said, if she has a genuine interest, my project Hackety Hack[1] is designed to be the new BASIC for learning programming. It's built on Ruby, but starts you off with Turtle graphics, then some basic Ruby, and even GUI development. It comes with a bunch of sample programs that show you how to make all kinds of interesting things...
Really? That's the first time I've heard about it. Do you mind going into more detail, or sharing links? It's not at all obvious to me why the two skills would be correlated (perhaps because my only musical skill is completely average ability to play the guitar).
Also - despite it maybe being a bit intense with the topic around it - http://railsforzombies.org/ - is done in a brilliant way for learning.
Maybe more for teens - and I dont see why someone couldn't rehash the zombie idea into something like ponies and teddy bears or something cute.
I've written a guide on how to complete rails for zombies - http://kaivong.com/2010/12/rails-for-zombies-guide/ - and if anyone is interested in doing something for a younger age range (that doesn't include zombies) I'd love to help out with design/screencasts.
Hope that helps in some way!
