Anyone have any good suggestions? Educational stuff is good, but I’m also interested in other games that kids can play solo or with parents. (We’re a PC gaming house, but I’m open to suggestions for any platform.)

I always vouch for Mario Party and Mario Kart (emulation), but I’m super biased. They’re easy to start up and play on a whim. I also find that some Mario Party minigames can be a good learning experience about colors, numbers and problem solving.
Overcooked is also a fun game too. I also heard good things about Lego Star Wars.
Edit: Do you have a specific genre that you and your kids enjoy?
So far we’re still figuring that out; we’ve tried some, but up until now they’ve done drag/drop tablet games, and I’d like to get them into something with a little more depth (and a little less overtly manipulative). Getting used to keyboard/mouse controls has been surprisingly hard (even more than I expected), but they’re interested in trying.
I know most PC gamers hate the idea, but gamepads seem pretty usable for kids. Xbox and ps5 gamepads work great on pc.
