I know nothing about cameras. I'd like to by her a better lens than what came with the camera. I'm thinking of spending around $300 for it. Any suggestions would greatly appreciated.

I'm thinking you need something like this. Sorry if it's a bit more than you want to spend, but it's a great general purpose lens...something she can really grow into. It's the real deal though!

This lens is a great everyday lens but having a couple different types doesn't hurt either. It will provide great quality images and will reduce the chance of any ghosting or flare. Your pictures, or your daughters pictures will be crisp and sharp.

A telephoto lens is handy to have in your bag of tricks. This lens will be great for capturing your long distances as well as for low light situations. It offers great performance for a terrific value.
