Scratch itself can be fun for kids just making characters and objects move around like an animated cartoon, then add game elements like navigating the character through a maze, then adding stuff like kicking a ball through a goal.

You can probably get that far in a day or two. And if interest persists, advance to customized Minecraft or Roblox.
