This.
Exactly this.
The MX3 (FM), MX3-FG (2.4), MX3-X (2.4 gen2) is the perfect pistol radio for a young one. It's light, inexpensive, really well featured for the price, durable and has quite a small grip (many 'adults' add grip tape to make it a little bigger).
If you have FM gear try and find an MX3, if you have 2.4GHz gear then try and pick up an FG which will be less expensive than the X and a 6 year old won't notice the difference.
Sanwa and AirTronics are the same brand, depending on your region you may need to search for both.
Getting a radio like this which is not bottom-of-the-range, will allow your boy to grow with the radio without needing to replace it for new features. The MX3 series has enough features for a club racer without making anything too complex.
And as it happens I have some recent photos here:
