Here's the truth: this is a documentary about the making of a silent film, released in 1965. That's a very specific kind of media archaeology that appeals to film students, Keaton completists, and people who genuinely love cinema history.

For everyone else—including 99% of kids—this is going to be brutally boring. It's safe, it's wholesome, it's educational in theory. But in practice? Your kid is going to ask to watch literally anything else within five minutes.

If you have a budding filmmaker or a kid who's already into classic cinema, this could be a neat curiosity. For everyone else, skip it and just show them The General or Sherlock Jr. instead—at least those have the comedy to carry the silent film format.
