E-trade Account for 14 year old?

Our youngest son wants to try his hand at investing. He has a few hundred $ saved and we'd like to set him up with an on-line account. A few questions:

Best to do it completely in his name and SS#? What about taxes, etc?
Is e-trade the way to go, or any other suggestions?

I'm a mutual fund guy myself (no time or patience for individual stocks), but I think he'll have fun researching and watching his stock picks rise and fall.

Thanks!
