I'd recommend Chuk and the Arena [0], it's IF but link based rather than parser based (twine), and imo suitable for kids. I played it with my own kids and they liked it. Had to help them a bit with some of the more obscure puzzles, but overall it's fairly easy. Play it yourself before making up your mind though. It's free on the IF archive and itch.io. Personally I enjoyed it very much.

And thanks for the Sorcery recommendation, I haven't played it myself and from reading about it in the past I wasn't sure if it's age appropriate.
