The best place to start is arm yourself with a little bit of knowledge and do some research on the Internet so you know what you are looking for. The first thing you look for is the price of different sets Online since Dw has a great reputation I favor checking them out. This will give you a good starting point. You can Normally find the cheapest prices online.
The next thing you do is look at the different types of sets that are available and discuss this with your child if this is who you are buying the set for. You might want to have a talk with the band director at your son or daughters school if they will be playing percussion in the school band. They will either be able to tell you what to look for or direct you to someone that can give you pointers. Look Online with your child and see what they like. Most beginner drum sets come with a bass drum, a snare drum, two tom toms, and a floor tom. Some sets come with stands for cymbals but you have to purchase the cymbals separately from the set. You may also have to purchase the seat or throne separately.
Do not purchase anything more than a five pieces set for a beginner, in fact they can adequately learn on just a 3 piece set. Just be sure you can add to it eventually because a 3 piece set does not come with a snare and your will want that eventually. Most beginner sets are mass produced but that doesn’t mean that they have to terrible sets. Many companies make quality produced sets that are beautiful in the way the look and sound great too.

One of those companies is DW, also called Drum Workshop. They manufacture a beginner set that is affordable and very nice with the name of the Pacific Drum and Percussion. The EZ series is the best for a beginner because it is affordable and has 5 pieces. The heads (the part you hit with sticks) are not always the best but if you change them out for something a little better it will give the set a better sound.
