This depends on the horse as an individual. For a kids horse, you want an older (10+), calm, well trained horse in good health and with plenty of experience in what discipline the child is interested in. Breed and color should not matter

Is an American paint horse a quarter horse?
Yes and no. The Paint horse was started as a breed due to Quarter horse breeders tossing out or killing perfectly good horses just because they had 'too much' white on them, which associated the horses with Native American tribes. To prove the horses were valuable the registry was started and any Quarter horse with too much white was allowed to be registered. they also then accepted Thoroughbreds into the registry after a period of time. Nowadays there are distinct bloodlines within the Paint and many of them are actually still purebred Quarter horses. The term paint refers to a horse with a broken coat color (there is a minimum amount of white over pink skin to be classified) that is also within strict bloodline requirements. To be registered with the APHA the parents must be registered with APHA, AQHA or the Jockey Club (meaning a thoroughbred). At least one parent must be APHA registered. Therefore, many paints are of strong quarter horse lineage, some horses are cross registered between the quarter horse and paint horse registries. When a horse is not within these breed requirements, yet still retains the colorful coat pattern they are simply called a pinto. Pinto refers to the coat color whereas paint is a breed.
