Morning MyBB,

My nephews (4yo and 6 yo) have no basic computer skills. Their parents aren't gamers, and have limited the kids' screentime to date. They now want to start introducing the kids to computers to develop the basic skills.

What games are there that are suitable for small boys? I downloaded a copy of TIM, but I'm sure that there must be something a bit more up to date. The PC that they have access to is very basic with an old Radeon graphics card (using passive cooling), so for argument's sake assume a PC without a dedicated graphics card. IIRC 8 GB RAM.
 
Minecraft? Rather get them into it by letting them enjoy it with new games / stuff their friends are playing rather than trying to make them play stuff you played ages ago.

Which is exactly why I posted my question. :) I don't think they have any friends who play PC games, so it's basically up to me to find something they'll enjoy.

Thanks, I'll start my list of options with Minecraft
