I decided to go with this:
http://www.amazon.com/Canon-55-250mm...s+55-250+is+II

And a mini-tripod. I think this will give her a different kind of use out of her camera, enabling her to do more with it. The limit we agreed to spend on each other is $100 anyway so spending double is better than 4x .

We're heading up to her grandparent's cabin this weekend and will be out in the woods quite a bit so I think the zoom lens will be fun for nature shots...

Thanks for the advice guys!
Thats a good choice, provided she is OK with the idea of swapping lenses for wider angle shots. I was going to suggest something like:

As a reasonable lens that would cover all focal lengths from wider angle walk around to zoom.
