I think that connect 4 would be a good follow-up after mastering noughts and crosses. Simple rules, looking at what the opponent can do, looking ahead, zugzwang, etc. But complicated enough that it was only fully solved in 1988.
I might try a bit of "cross training" with other games in chess clubs next term to see how it goes.
