I recommend the Keen series. Adventure games with smooth graphics. Played by kids aged from 6 and up. Best loved game among Clayton's afterschool daycare. Admittedly it seems to be played and loved by boys mostly though. Does not require mouse.

You play the role of Billy Blaze, eight year-old kid genius who builds an interstellar ship when not working at home on his college fast-track degree. Among other household objects, Billy uses his Nintendo joystick for flight control and his mom's vacuum cleaner (heavily modified) for his ship's ion propulsion system (with pile height adjustment).At the hint of galactic trouble, Billy dons his brother's football helmet and becomes "Commander Keen" -- defender of Earth!
