What about a laptop for her?

Or are you only looking to get a desktop?

The case is subjective, feel free to pick any from the parametric list. If she needs a monitor, go to you're local Bestbuy and buy whatever is on sale TBH. I seriously doubt she's going to notice the difference with a higher pixel density or higher refresh rate.

Doesn't seem like a good purchase. HD 4000 also struggles with minecraft. And will have dips into the 10's FPS.

I like this build. I would change the 1TB HDD to a 250gb SSD. Enough for like 10 games.

I just think that for an 8 year old, I would consider two things above all else...

Ruggedness, and I wouldn't get new until I watched the kid with a refurb.

What's a kid gonna do to a full PC? It's not like they can move it.
