Good thing to do with a 6 yo: type stories they dictate. At that age, the physical act of writing is a bottleneck, so this can release a torrent of imagination. They love seeing their stories printed, like "real" stories they read in books. And it's a fun thing to do together.
When I do this, I don't edit what he writes. It's his story. I'm just transcribing it. So the most I'll do, if he mangles a sentence so badly that it's not even something he'd say, is repeat the first half out loud as I'm typing, and let him finish it again.
This is one of the things Keith Johnstone describes doing with his "unteachable" class in his excellent book "Impro".
I tried something similar but with me making a game. I couldn't keep up with his demands for what the game should do as I was learning the framework. Ended up using the tilemap editor to design the game instead. Worked out better :D
Awesome idea.
this is a good tip from Paul facilitating a child's imagination is good instilling the concept of productivity whilst doing it is gooder exposing the kid to the iterative process while doing this is goodest

Can’t wait for you and @jesslivingston book on parenting. You always share gems. Thank you.
Alternative option (for those of us without kids): Draft ongoing conversations with friends.
I did it with my younger daughter. I asked her to tell me her favourite bedtime stories. (Three little pigs, etc.) It was helluva fun reading out loud later ;)
