Other Games / Good introductory Worker Placement games

Hey, I did just get back from a game night at a local gamestore and I tried out the store demo for Tzolk'en and I liked how it played but it felt a bit too meaty for my niece and other family members.  Is there any good Worker Placement games I should look into for a 'first' one for my family and I?  My niece is aged 7 but she can handle something like Quarantine pretty easily (Action Point modular board game) but kinda struggled with Blueprints (kinda 3d yahtzee, she kept on making 'rainbow' buildings where she never went for any of the awards or that high of a building score.  She kinda quit the game after the second of 3 rounds).  So, yeah, any suggestions?  I'm not against doing a PNP game if that's the best option, though Agricola did catch my eye (as well as the family ruleset)
