I would have thought that all your plans will have to revolve around your six-year-old, his requirements for food, drink and sleep, plus his tolerance for crowds and so on.
If the weather is hot there will be a lot of dust (and there's not much shade or room to sit down in the public enclosures), whilst wet weather produces mud - and lots of it around Dairon and Beausejour. Crowds near the track during the race are very dense, and it's easy to get separated.
I'm not advising you not to go - we took our eldest daughter to 5 Grands Prix and three 1000km races in 1974 before her first birthday, but you'll enjoy it more if you recce it thoroughly once you arrive and make your plans.
Bluarmy's suggestion of the Club Arnage Guide is spot on - there is no better spectator guide to the world's greatest race.
Have fun!
