The game is extremely kid-friendly, and is an awesome way to develop problem-solving skills that require quick-thinking. In fact, Thing2 (having passed the Xbox controller to Thing1) is on his dad's laptop right now trying to get past level 15. I think he plans to count it as part of today's home school lesson. Maybe it could...if he'll agree to squeak out an essay that chronicles his adventures.
