Having a piano on hand is a great idea. A little blower-driven reed organ could work well, too, and can be had for cheap or free these days. Note that these have a clarinet-like tone. I got my musical career off to a rousing start with a Magnus organ, which I actually wore out by the time I was age 6 or so. In beginning band, I gravitated toward the sound of the clarinet and it became my first wind instrument. Coincidence?

If she takes a liking to the organ, so much the better--in many locales there is a shortage of organists. I get more calls for organ performance work than I'm able to accept.
