The two games that come to mind first are A Short Hike and Alba: A Wildlife Adventure.

My kids have played Terraria, Stardew Valley, and Mindcrap since they were about 6 years old.

Stardew Valley is also a favourite of my kid and probably the one with the easiest controls for her.

I should note that she pretty much never follows the objective of any game she plays though, she'll make up her own games. With Stardew Valley we often play house where she pretends the community centre is a school.

I feel like it would undermine her education to not talk to strangers if I send her to the strangest person here.

My laughing response was not good enough for this comment. Need to have a Nobel nomination option.

OP, it just depends on the kids. How old they are, etc. Wizard101 is a great game for kids, as is MInceraft Those are what my own kids played. We won't talk about the time I let Guido play GTA V or how I gave them both nightmares letting them watch me play Resident Evil IV

Mindcrap, Terraria and Roblox come to mind

A friend of mine recommended Five Night at Freddy's. He said his children were less loud in the room while playing the game, though they looked a bit pale at dinner.

Starbound is pretty friendly. I'd recommend that myself.
