Probably not as interesting as the others here but I have a blog where I write about my snail simulation (and in the past other hobby projects). Not all posts contain code but many do, especially in the 'dev' category:
Maybe she should start a blog, too! I love following other dev blogs and I found that writing down what you've learned in a day or thoughts in general really helps to solidify the learning in my head, so blogging helps in that way.
While not a blog, Girl Develop It [1] is an active community that encourages female developers and provides them with numerous opportunities to learn the craft via classes and community support. A number of chapters exist in various cities throughout the US and there are high chances of it being present in your city as well.
People have mentioned some great blogs! Another one that came to my mind is Jennifer Dewalt, who built 180 websites in 180 days to teach herself coding: http://jenniferdewalt.com/
The Ask-er asked a very straightforward question. Can we not derail it with a giant thread about the validity of a "help me generate a list of" question? "I don't know" is a perfectly acceptable answer, if you're stuck.
This isn't a compile-a-list-for-me site, it's fair game to question whether restricting yourself to female only blogs is the best course of action here.
I still don't understand how gender plays into this, I have no data to support my presumptions. But I would think that it might make an effect but not a significant one.
There exists a vast array of academic literature, philosophic theory, and rampant opinion on the role of role models; structural delegitimization of the experience of those economically, socially, or politically disadvantaged; and the diverse ways in which humans learn from experience. Searching for and availing yourself of those resources would probably be the most advantageous way to address any substantial curiosity you might possess on the topic.
Then again, it stands to be somewhat more work than what can be proffered with the caveat "I have no data to support my presumptions".
Just any programming blog. I don't see why it matters if the author is a female, you won't even notice that by looking at the code. Unless you're implying code written by a female looks different?

Most of their articles are about technical topics beyond the beginner level, but each has some articles about learning and teaching in their archives.
