My 5 year old is super interested as well, but he isn't a very strong reader yet. What class/subclass would you suggest for him and fitting in the party?

Champion Fighter maybe for the KISS principle?
IMO, don't give them a class. Show them your minifigs and have him pick one he likes. Assign him a "warrior" sidekick class and ask him very broadly what he wants to do then tell him which dice to roll. Handle the paperwork for him or ignore it entirely.

My 4 year old daughter plays a fox in our Dragonheist campaign. She has a blast, and is frequently hilarious.
