Very good single player. Lots of skills learnt from it.

I'd keep him off online though as there are a lot of messed up people out there and 6 is probably a bit young to interact with them.

lots to do in single player though!

Well, if any computer game is good for young kids, it would probably be Minecraft. You can look at it as infinite Legos at a fraction of the cost. I'd imagine it's a good way to build spacial skills and planning. Maybe a good opportunity to build some things together and collaborate. As a kid, I spent many hours digging through the Lego bins, talking about whatever with a friend or just freebuilding by myself and creating worlds. I don't play Minecraft that much these days, but I still value having my own private little world where I can go to be free from the everyday. I think even a 6-year-old may value that aspect.

6 is pretty young though, and the point about online interactions is very valid, although I have not played multiplayer Minecraft myself.
