Tips for lighting fires in fireplaces?

My homes have always had gas log lighters to make starting a fire very easy. Unfortunately, the new house in Indiana does not have such luxuries.

Does anyone have any tips on how I can teach a girl to safely light a fire in a fireplace?

I was going to suggest she start collecting pine needles to use for kindling. I also thought that a Dura-Flame log might be a good way to kindle a fire.

I just remembered that my ex-father-in-law used to make "logs" from old newspapers (had some device that rolled them up real tight).

Anyone else have any tips?
