Be sure it has the Low Bb key and left-hand F. The other assorted trill keys aren't terribly important for a child, but I started on a Selmer 1492 and the lack of the low Bb was tremendously frustrating. I now have a Fox 333 which I like a lot.
You'll hear "Selmer! Selmer!" pushed at you, simply because they make a lot of other woodwind band instruments for children, but there are different models of Selmers, so know what you're getting into. I wouldn't recommend the 1492 to anyone, but a number of the folks on this board like the other Selmer models.
