I think the most important thing starting out is just to have something with an easy-to-access canvas and i/o so you can get enough visible output to keep it interesting. Not to be selfish but they'd probably notice my disdain for Python no matter how much I tried to hide it so I might rather teach them something I already know and like or at least am interested in learning.
I started out using C, which is probably the worst possible choice, but it still worked.
