Switch game recommendations (lemmy.world)

Looking for game recommendations for my 4 year old who just got a Switch for Christmas. He's having a good time with Donut County, and likes running around the town in Stardew Valley, but looking for something else. Doesn't have to be super kids-y, but easy, chill, no lose condition or time limits. Thoughts?

I'm not sure which ones he was into at 4yo specifically, but my son's Switch favorites include...

Super Mario Odyssey Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle Celeste Minecraft Yoshi's Crafted World Letterquest Big Brain Academy NES Arcade SNES Arcade

Of those, the ones I would say mught meet your super-chill criteria are...

Super Mario Odyssey (yeah, you can die, but you just respawn and can spend tons of time just running around aimlessly) Celeste (normally not, but there's a lovely Assist Mode) Yoshi's Crafted World (there's a no-fail mode) Big Brain Academy (if they can handle being scored on things, without taking it too seriously).
