Edit - for a dirt bike combo I would go with a used 03-04 YZ250F for me and a KTM Adventure 50 for Zack. Should roll out at ~$5K for both if I shop around.

I would highly recommend the dirt bikes! When my little girl gets just a bit older (she's almost 5) I am getting her a dirt bike. IMHO that is the best/only way for a kid to learn to ride motorcycles. Not a bad way for an adult to start either. For some reason the wife gets quite nervous about our daughter riding a street bike, but has no problems with the dirt bike. Waaaay back when my first bike was the good old Honda Trail.
