    Heaps of the Velvet Underground stuff would be good for a young one.

    The Beachwood Sparks sound like Buffalo Springfield, they are really good. Anything by Gram Parsons is great.

    I was also thinking maybe some songs from The Zombies album Odessey & Oracle. Especially the songs "Care Of Cell 44" and "Beachwood Park." Kids would like those songs... but so would adults! :)

    Heh, and heaps of The Velvet Underground stuff wouldn't be good for a young one! ;) See the songs:

    "Venus In Furs"
    "Heroin"
    "The Black Angel's Death Song"
    "European Son"
    "The Gift"
    "I Heard Her Call My Name"
    "Sister Ray"
    "The Murder Mystery"
    "New Age"
    "Oh! Sweet Nuthin'"

    I could never see a small child jamming to "Sister Ray!" :p However, as said before, heaps of The Velvet Underground stuff would be good for a young one. See the songs:

    "Sunday Morning"
    "I'll Be Your Mirror"
    "Here She Comes Now"
    "Candy Says"
    "Pale Blue Eyes"
    "After Hours"
    "Lisa Says"
    "Sweet Jane" (Live)
    "Lonesome Cowboy Bill"
    Plus others...

    The Byrds are really gentle sounding. Beachwood Sparks are too.

    Hmm... a gentle light-hearted happy song that doesn't have the word Hippy all over it?

    Look no further than: Shawn Lee - Happiness.
