I'm starting a 6 in one for a friend to give his son as a gift. I'm concerned about wiring all those grounds and positive wires to the 9v adapter. How can I better do this? I'm mostly concerned about the surface area on the small 9v plug area. I've do done two, but six or more wires have me concerned.

You could do a little vero board power distribution. One wire from the jack to the vero, other wires to your effects.

If you are using 3PDT break out PCBs they usually have +9V and GND on both sides. You could just daisychain the PCBs.

Here's Rullywows version just to give you the idea: http://www.rullywow.com/product/3pdtv3-1a/

This is what I do. It makes things very neat. It also is nice to be able to use the many bits of vero we all have laying around from previous builds.  ;)
