I found the visual programming provided by the BBC micro:bit very approachable. Try it in the online simulator, then get a board for $10.

This provides a drag and drop interface for loops and variables and makes LEDs blink nicely.

Also makes it super easy to switch to the js or python representation of the visual program.

Tried it with a 7 year old. She got it I think.
