As a dad, I gotta say teach her the classics. She'll find the new stuff on her own or through friends, but if she is taught about Bauhaus, Sisters of Mercy, Joy Division, Souxsie and the Banshees, The Cure, even early Nine Inch Nails.
That way, she'll know the genre inside-out and easily identify how these bands influenced the contemporary scene.
I did the same thing with Glam, Metal, Punk, and Rockabilly with my two boys and they're amazing music historians at the tender ages of 10 and 4 years old.
