12 Year Old Daughter Tried to Help - Toro Mower/Briggs & Stratton Engine

My 12 year-old daughter thought she was helping dad out by mowing the lawn. A lovely gesture. However, when the mower ran out of gas, she retrieved the gas can and filled up the reservoir. Only problem.... she filled the OIL reservoir. She tried to pull-start the engine, and imagine that, it didn't run.

I've drained the oil-gas mixture and then let the mower sit. Refilled with new oil, hoping that might work. Not so much. I know I can replace the engine (or just replace the whole mower for $75 more).

So my questions are these:

1) Is there any hope for the current engine?
2) Should I buy a new engine and replace?
3) Should I just buy a new mower? (Maybe an electric one, so not to confuse my daughter... :) )

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks!
