SRAM trigger shifters should be good. Just make sure you DON'T get the attack versions as they're for shimano rear mechs.

my kids really stuggled with shifters when they were little, especially pushing the thumb on the front.
because sram are 1:1 the shifting takes much less physical effort and i wish that i'd have spent enough to get them x9 shifters as they'd have enjoyed their riding far more.
not cheap but worth it from my experiences.

I put Sram SX-4 shifters on my kids bike - much easier to use than gripshifts.
