Well done with the kid!

I'd suggest a newspaper, and with no scientific justification whatsoever 
use a broadsheet (such as "The Times" etc) rather than a tabloid (they 
cater to their audience and so tend to use short words and simple 
grammar).

As I said, no scientific basis at all, just a gut feeling.
