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.

    GREAT! I think he might enjoy mopre discovering it by himself/youtube tutorials with the option to ask if something doesnt go right.

    I have an Autist of 14 at home and he does love minecraft.

    The use of the laptop, mouse, keyboard will improve his eye/hand coordination.
    *Bonus points: you can put audiobooks or documentaries as background so he grows while he plays.
