My 2.5 year old had great fun with Wii Sports Resort, watching the plane crash over an over, the guy jumping out. That got him into games. Motion controls are very intuitive early on, walking around with the analog stick is more difficult. 2D games or games with a trailing camera are preferred. Driving is very hard and easily frustrating. The best games are those you can play together, Knack is perfect for that.
iPad was also a hit, simple touch screen games. Then they started playing Roblox with their nephew around age 6. Now at 10 and 12 they're into Fortnite, Minecraft, Ark with school friends online. The youngest plays a lot on Switch. Online gaming is great with the pandemic. They can play with their friends right when online learning is done and when the weather is nice they coordinate meeting up at the park through party chat.
Anyway, early on, anything colorful with simple shapes that you can play co-op is perfect. Preferably something where one player doesn't run out of lives and gets locked out or restart. Hence Knack was so good.
