A GREAT game to play with kids is called “Stacking”. Looks like there’s a Linux version so you might be able to get it running on the Pi:

PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Windows, OS X, Linux
The gag is this…
You play the smallest of a set of Russian nesting dolls and you want to re-unite with your family.
In order to do that you have to solve a bunch of puzzles in a world filled with other Russian nesting dolls.
You can jump into any doll one size larger than you, and you can jump out to be one size smaller.
Each doll has a specific skill or ability, so by swapping bodies, you use the various skills to solve the puzzles.
The challenge is, you might find one that has the right skill, but you’re too small to jump into them, so you have to find the right chain of dolls to size up and size down to do what you need to do.
