Have you looked at English Banana? I found it useful on the rare occasions that I taught kids.
I found some free resources HERE too.

Also "I spy with my little eye" for nouns and the names of colours.

How about "Animal, Vegetable or Mineral"? Simply say to your son "I'm thinking of an animal", for example, and he has to ask you questions to work out which animal. However, he can ask only closed questions (you are only allowed to answer "Yes" or "No"). It's good to help him produce interrogatives and helps with vocabulary because he needs to keep coming up with new questions.

Thanks for these suggestions!

I also recently found that game, which has pretty easy words to find: Word Chain. I think it is updated daily, so it can be a good daily routine.

@John Steve Note my corrections above. You have two choices with the name of the game. You can treat it as a common noun, in which case only the first word should be capitalised, or you can consider it the official title of the game, in which case it should be written "I Spy With My Little Eye". I've had a good check online and can find no evidence that it's "eyes" instead of "eye" in American English.
