I had this problem too but I figured it out eventually haha. Purchase a childrens book (hover over them and it will show the books genre) or if you already have a childrens book move it to the adults inventory. From the inventory when you click on it you have the option to read to a child :-)
How do you purchase a book and how do you get it into the adults inventory. I have children's books in the bookcases but I can't move them into an adult's inventory.
If you have a bookcase, there is normally a child's book already on there e.g. Lord of the Swings. Take it from there and put it in your inventory.
Alternatively, if you don't have a bookcase, or want a larger selection of books, go to the computer and click purchase and the books. You can choose what you want then when you buy them they will be placed in your sim's inventory. Make sure you select children's books though if you want to be able to read them to a child! 🙂
Hope I helped!
I assume the children are on your lot, right ?
You do have to put a childrens's book in your inventory. Only works with those
Thanks! I was having this issue and tried all other options, yours was the only one that worked!
