Summer said...

We let our 8 year old (now 9) play over the summer for the same reasons. Reading the quests and following instructions to figure out what to do and what direction to go reinforced skills she needed to practice while letting her have fun. I spent a lot of time saying "Did you read the quest?" but it was worth it.

Older kids though, not much they can learn from it!
