Why can't children learn magic?
There isn't much at all for children sims to do. I really wanted them to be included in mermaids and RoM, they are ignored. It was awesome they included children in the vampires pack, but why are kid ...

Hmm...
For my part the child does not have to be the one practicing magic. It could have been good anyways.
- Making a small shower of stars for your toddler to ohh and ahh over
- Making the vegetables dance in the air when you are making soup. Kids laugh at silly
- Making bubbles in the air for all kids to chase
Kids are just completely cut off from magic. They cannot see it. React to it. It does not exist in their life.
You cannot even make your kid smile by making magic for your sim-child because there is no magic in their lives.
It just feels so sad when they are excluded from things in pack after pack.
You have a point there. Kids performing magic would be my preference, but reacting to magic done by adults would have helped with including all ages. I really like the examples you gave. Let them see it and react to it.
Now I even have to use a mod to be able to magically clean them with scruberoo. And it makes me wonder why the developers did not allow it in the game.
I also wanted to be able to use potions on them, particularly the potion of plentiful needs. Even if it would always be the positive outcome for children. The drinking animations are already in the game so that can't be an excuse for this one.
