If my son sticks with it I'll get him a Baby Taylor. He is learning on a small Aria. Fender makes some small electrics as well.

For my 11 year daughter old I went with a 3/4 squier strat - bright red helps. I agree that electric is more stimulating and easier than acoustic. I worked on teh action to get it low and easy and O have been teaching chord fragments to her for songs she likes - best yet is Lennon's Imagine. I did do a thread here at the time (around January 2011) and got a lot of suggestions all pulling in different directions!!
