Another thought I had was that maybe your son is just more mature & can relate to older children. I have a niece that is 8 and another that's just turned 12 & it's astonishing because the 8 year old is far more mature then the older one. She gravitates to spending more time with myself & other adults while the 12 year old would rather spend time with the youngsters.
And yes, that sounds like a great idea. It's hard to be a kid because you think everyone is your friend. It's only when you become an adult that you realize 99.9% of the people you have called your friends were FAR from it.
He sounds like a great kid & i'm sure he will figure it out, especially while having great parental support from yourself.
Is it normal for a child to have considerably older friends?
