A comment on Ask HN: What programming language should I teach my child?. Parent comment
The stdlib in python is full featured and you can do a lot with it and the syntax is easy.
Rust would be a terrible choice, the last thing a child wants to do slam their head against the wall with life times.
Whatever you choose make sure the feedback loop is tight. Children will want to "build" something, not fight with error messages.
