My 9 year old girl has expressed an interest in learning to program. Of course I want something that will give her short term rewards, but still teach solid skills. I know this question gets asked from time to time on various forums but I wanted to get some opinions from the good people of SN.
Christmas is coming... she's (for now) a Windows user... is there something you'd recommend as a gift?
Thanks for your ideas.

There's also a very Scratch-like assortment of Minecraft themed lessons over at code.org [code.org] build by one of the Minecraft devs. Kept an 8 and 10 yo pair busy an entire Saturday around my house.
My rights don't end where your fear begins.
