If you play Guitar, any book from the Guitar Grimoire series will help a ton. I have the one on chord and voicings, and its approach is absolutely no-bullshit. It has sections for every type of chord configuration (major, minor, 7th, 9th, etc), and then lists every possible chord within it, a movable figure for it, and almost every scale that can be played within that particular chord alone. So for instance, I can play a Lydian Dominant or Hindu scale over an Asus2 chord. Never would've figured that out on my own. Also, if you play Keyboard, they have some Keyboard Grimoire books as well.
I also own The Complete Idiot's Guide to Music Composition. Not a completely eye-opening book like Guitar Grimoire, but still surprisingly helpful.
Cool. I think your kid will really like it. The language is simple and it starts out really basic, but gets more involved as you go along. If your kid gets through it and you guys are looking for more, I also recommend The Complete Idiot's Guide to Music Composition as a follow-up. This gets into putting the theory into practice a lot more. Chord structure, melody, song structure, etc... It's an excellent follow-up.
Good for you for wanting to learn! Nothing wrong with iphone apps but, you know they'll only get you so far.
I have been reading this book off and on:

some good info!
Yes, that would be clipping in your program material. First rule of digital audio is to stay completely out of the red. Fixing that of course wouldn't help as much as reading this book-
