Another good alternative is this:
The 1.5-6x40 has a little less top end magnification, but larger objective for better low light performance.
Ultimately, you have to converge on a reticle choice. What constitutes a simple reticle is different to different people. The 2-8x32 scopes I mentioned above havea nice and simple plex reticle.
The CMR scope that Kickboxer suggested is a nice scope (I have one), but that is probably not something I would give to a young shooter. Besides, the numbered holdover marks are not a great match for the Grendel.
The reticle in the Burris MTAC is somewhere between the two in complexity, but I think it is simple enough for quick use with just enough holdover capability for the kid to have fun practicing with his rifle.
As far as the mounts go, I would consider this one:
It is inexpensive and pretty sturdy. The inserts allow you to use it with both 1" and 30mm tube scopes.
