Answer 1

 Kelly, 

 Since this is for elementary school, you do not want to set up equations with variables. Therefore the best way to do this, is simply to have your son right down the possibilities. 

 

 See if you can come up with these possibilities. 

24

26

28

46

48

68

 

 Then have him determine which of these possibilities has digits that add up to six. 

 

24

Answer 2

24. Two is in the tens place, while four is in the ones place. They are both even, and add up to six.
