You're on the G scale forum mate, pop over to the model railroader pages via the forums link and you'll find loads more help.
Of course you could get him some G scale and stay here too!
 In HO though
Bachmann EZ track
Peco Set track
Atlas
Kato HO unitrack
All good makes, check local stores for the best prices and easy availability when you need that extra bit!

The most "user friendly" track would be some of the snap-together track with a built-in roadbed.  Kato would probably be the most reliable.

I never use sectional track, but you need to get ahold of a February 2007 copy of Model Railroader magazine and read their article about using Kato sectional track to build a layout.

Atlas is the best and easiest to attain.
