That seems to be a fun project!
Perl is a very good programming language for starters. The nice thing is that you can start with simple things and that once your students advance in knowledge you can introduce more advanced concepts, yet even with the simple elements they have learned in the beginning they can already write working and useful programs. A simple "beginners level" book is "Perl for Beginners", freely available at BookBoon. If you are on Windows, Strawberry Perl is indeed a good choice. Padre isn't installed by default, but as it is just another module, you can install it yourself from CPAN.
