Some tips please

Hey guys so my nephew is visiting for 2 days and wants to do a one shot game. He is 12 and I want to give him a good adventure. But there's a problem... he has never played before and I only sat in on a couple games while my husband played a couple years ago and have never actually played myself... what do I do? How do I start?

This, or really any Grant Howitt one-page RPG is fantastic for a one-shot for new players. Takes some good improv skills to GM though.
