Default Suggestions for Plane

I want to get my two boys into their first Pattern Plane and am looking for suggestions for the airframe.
I have a NIB Saito 125 and a NIB Saito 100 to use for power
I am looking for ARF's preferably
What plane would you suggest?

The Great Planes Venus II is a 90 size pattern plane and it looks like it is comming in at 7 to 8 lbs. The 100 and 125 should power it nicely. The other nice thing is the plane is like $279.00

The World Models Groovy 90 would be perfect for the Saito 1.25 and it only costs about $300 with all hardware and soft mount. Flies great too.
