Gaming with my 6 year old - Minecraft yay or nay?

My son has been asking to play Minecraft. I know it's not violent and it's pretty creative but I'm not sure if 6 is too young or if it'll just turn into screen addiction. He's already into video games with me a little bit. Has anyone had good experiences with Minecraft for younger kids? How do you manage the time limits?

My 6 year old has been playing for a couple years now and it's honestly great. Just set some boundaries on time and you're golden. Way better than a lot of other stuff out there.

The fact that you can jump in and build stuff together makes it different from just screen time. My boys and I have our whole world going. Do it.

Minecraft is legit the best gateway game. Creative mode especially is basically digital legos. Plus you can play it WITH him which is the real win here.
