That'd be Nausicaa, Valley of the Wind, a Studio Ghibli/Miyazaki film, more than likely =)
I tend to start folks out on Ghibli stuff when I'm introducing them to anime ^^ It's basically shit Disney WISHES it had thought of first. (And is currently released in the US mostly by Disney). They are family-style animation that kidlet will prooobably love once she starts to truly pay attention.
Other Ghibli films to check out: My Neighbor Totoro Spirited Away Castle in the Sky Porco Rosso Howl's Moving Castle (Can't remember if this one was OFFICIAL Ghibli, I think it was Miyazaki's son directing)
And Satoshi Kon... well his most famousish movie is one called A Perfect Blue, which I cannot watch all the way through as it deals with obsession, psychosis, stalking, rape, etc. in a really suspenseful/nutbar way. BUT other movies of his that I absolutely ADORE:
Tokyo Godfathers (My favorite Christmas movie EVAR, despite my not being overly fond of Christmas) Millenium Actress Paprika (Though this one is ALSO very adultish themed and psychotic as it deals with dreams becoming reality. NOT kidlet safe.)
Yes. I am an anime freak (though a bit behind the times) =)
