I've done a great deal of research and have come to a conclusion. A good microcontroller to start with is a BASIC Stamp 2 (BS2) by Parallax. The BS2 uses a form of "BASIC" as it's programming language. There are hundreds of different brands on the market and you can get overwhelmed very quickly if your a newbie.
There are two other microcontrollers worth mentioning:
Javelin Stamp, which can be programmed using Java.
Oopic, which also uses an objected oriented language.
I even found a cool kit, which is used for learning how to program robots and various components. The kit is called the Boe-Bot. It comes with a programming board and all the components you need to get started.
