If your child needs or will benefit from a DSLR, one of the Rebel models with the kit lens is the go-to solution. The flexibility of the zoom is perfect for a child who is exploring the game of photography and having fun doing it, and it is a great way to not only get a variety of photographs but to have fun doing it.
You can save a bit of money by getting a slightly earlier version of the t-series bodies, too.
And because this is a camera forum and we occasionally see parents who are living their lives through their kids... I'll at least mention that it is good to make sure that she really wants a DSLR. Some kids see Mom or Dad using such a camera and do want one. On the other hand, sometimes parents who (bless their hearts) "want the best" for their kids can sometime overdo it - and where a decent point and shoot might be a better option.
Take care,

I have a 7D with grip and a 1D mkIIn, so yes, she has been around "large" DSLRs.
She's 14, has a cheap P&S, but decided she wanted something smaller than what I have but not a pocket camera.
