My kid is 7 and autistic and suddenly he has started liking Minecraft. He’s watched me play it and wants to play himself.
How can I get him started? Do I just give him the laptop and trust he can figure it out or do I find a way to explain the controls?
My absolute dream would be to spin up a server with him.


Everyone is different. My friend’s son is autistic but is an amazing gamer.
My son has down syndrome and was gaming with a controller at about 3. Kids pick stuff up fast
