The games they played so far,
- Action Henk ( cheery graphics, but it just gets way to difficult too fast )
- Bastion ( completed on "no sweat" mode, properly one of their favorite games )
- Tux Kart ( surprisingly they are terrible at this game )
- The Talos Principle ( The older is stuck about midway through building B, with the puzzles becoming too difficult, the younger spends his time running into walls while staring alternatively at the sky or his own feet )
- Portal 2 ( I can't seem to get them to grasp the idea behind the portals )
Lately they spend all their "screen time" playing minecraft on their ipads ( covers that can make the device survive kids are bascially non-existant for android devices ), but some variety would be nice.
So basically I'm looking for a colorful game that you can learn by playing and doesn't punish death too harshly - and is playable with the steamcontroller

Also Putt-Putt games.

I'd love to see any Lego title on linux, but that is about as likely as windows 11 being a Linux distro ;)
@liamdawe
I'll have another look at Slime rancher, I've been avoiding it because it's early access which in my experience means bad game that will never release and/or drop Linux support.
The Putt-Putt games seems to rely a lot on communicating objectives via speech and unfortunate my sons English vocabulary does not extend much beyond profanity
@Lin_Soldar
The opensource ones you mentioned all require keyboard and mouse IIRC, but in general opensource works fine with the link as long as you let steam launch it.
Guess it comes down to rocket leauge ( singlerplayer / split screen multiplayer ) or slimerancher

Why do you think that this is the case?
And I think that Windows 11 is never going to happen since MS said that Win10 will be like rolling release of linux... it will be more like service and just getting major updates as the time goes on.

Most (if not all) of them are distributed by WB, who when they completely failed to deliver batman to Linux figured it was a good idea to add 9 different windows only batman games to my list >_>

Battleblock theater, maybe? a bit more intensive, but really humorous and encourages team work nicely. But the mechanics might be too complex for a 3 year old.

We are currently trying Slime rancher, which so far seems to entertain them.
It's very much early access tho ( have to delete the configuration before launching the game every time, menus that doesn't work/ look like crap, etc ) but the basic gameplay mechanic seems solid
