I like child sims. I also like Riverdale.
Although I am anticipating University, I really was hoping for a pack called "Get Schooled," with more learning opportunities for children and teens.
Gameplay for children is limited. I hope that there's room for genius kids to take some University classes.
They have special schools for gifted children for your kids usually until they have reached a maturity to attend Universities which is generally in their mid teens. Gifted children are always smart enough for Uni but are often not mature enough for how Universities work - that's why the special schools for gifted students that cater to the needs of these children and give them a better rounded education as well as help them grow up in more fitting environment than any University could provide. Just being very intelligent is never enough for a child. Truthfully at least in the USA we still need to work on properly educating these very gifted student - as even school designed for them do not do enough to really provide the things these kids really need. Many foreign countries I think meet their needs much better then they do here. Hopefully one day my country will wake up and really provide these kids what they need to be as good and smart as they should be.
Universities will never be the answer to a 10 year old though - for one the best Universities are very expensive - most parents could not afford that kind of education for their children and scholarships are generally not offered to children in college so that leaves trying to place your child in schools we do have for gifted kids. It is much better than any public school - it does cost money but not as expensive as University. By the time your child is mature enough for University they can earn a scholarship to further their education. Hopefully in time the USA will finally do more to help these young gifted kids have the education that will fully matter.
Like an old commercial has stated for years - A mind is a terrible thing to waste - it is so true when these young may be the answer to so many future problems if just given the education they need.
