Definitely get a variable power supply. This is my favorite el cheapo. If he doesn't have a breadboard, definitely get him one. Ideally, he won't have to solder until he's done with his design. If he wants to make semi-permanent things, perfboard is a good choice-- the step between breadboards and a real printed circuit board. Depending on what he's interested in, some cheap sensors can be fun to add to projects -- magnetometers, IMUs, temp sensors. They are typically very easy to add to arduinos. Send him to sparkfun or adafruit and try to work through some of the simpler projects. With regards to the oscilloscope, I would highly recommend avoiding a USB scope, because they tend to become useless at higher frequencies. I think the go-to cheap hobbyist scope is something from the Rigol DS1000 line, which can range from $300-$1000.
