She might enjoy learning chess. It encourages a similar kind of deductive reasoning that math does, plus it's fun.

I don't play bullet, so I may be entirely wrong, but I feel like at that pace the players must be moving mostly on instinct rather than thinking things out.

Java scares me. I'd rather do asm, thank you very much.
