We got the Ender 3D Pro on Prime day for a little over $200. Putting it together with my 12 yo son was not too hard and it's been fairly easy to get printing well for standard filament. We are now trying flexible filament which is more challenging but definitely a fun thing to work on.
I had my son "design" a few coat hooks and he did well for his first 3d modeling project. I want to get him more invested in learning about it since I know he'll really enjoy it once he's through the early part of the learning process.
There's a subreddit /r/3dprinting that is pretty informative and a few good youtubers we've found.
If it's not red and showing substantial musculature, you're wearing it wrong.
