You are officially my hero! I have a farming family and it drives me up the WALL that the kids can never help with the harvests!

This was a sorely missed/needed mod. Thank you for updating it!

I did however find that children cannot harvest (or interact at all) with any plants that were added later to the game, such as garlic, avocado or pineapple. If you could look into that, it would be highly appreciated. If not, no worries. It's already better than nothing at all.

I'm aware of this, and I know how to fix it. Anything added since 2016 (even new base game plants) don't work. I've already got an update ready to go with all the newer base game plants.

Thank you so much for this mod! I never understood why children couldn't garden. This is unrelated but a mod that allows you to have a conversation while fishing would also be amazing!

I see an update has been uploaded, now to see if it applies to Money Trees! Fabulously Wealthy the moment they age up to teen...

It's like you read my mind! I was just wishing this mod existed or would be updated! I just started a LP with a child and it's so frustrating that she can't harvest , or plant either for that matter! I was like, I helped my dad all the time in the garden growing up, so EA don't try to tell me kids can't do that sort of thing! It's so unrealistic! So, thank you, thank you for this mod! I'm looking forward to the updates for the rest of the plants, hopefully you will consider doing the custom made plants out there as well?!

Sadly this doesnt work for me. I even tried it with a brand new world file with no other mods. Child clicks on any base game veg, fruit or herb and the only interaction is eat it. Hope this is an oversight by you and it can be fixed. Thanks

This mod only allows Harvesting and talking to. It does not allow children to plant seeds, this is not an oversight.

Currently only base game plants work. I'll be releasing an update tomorrow for plants from ALL packs. I'm currently just testing to make sure I didn't forget anything.

I do plan to support custom plants, but an update to support them won't be right away. I'll release custom plant support in updates that focus on 1 creator. So for example; 1 update to support Pbox's, 1 to support Icemunmun's, etc.

I'll be updating Less "Make A Mess" soon. As for my aspirations, that'll be a wait but I do want to do it.

Ok, so far my kids have harvested strawberries, but they can't do the Money tree. That's because you "sell" instead of "harvest," isn't it?

I've never used the Money tree, but I did add it's ID to the code. It's likely as you said, if you can't harvest then it wouldn't appear. You can probably still talk to it, though. I'll look into adding children being able to sell harvests.

Yes, the kids do have the option to talk to it. When adults harvest the Money Tree, they don't get a "harvest" option, they just get sell options. I guess this is so you can't buy one, and then plant a whole forest of them. Thing is, the Scientist career, and now the magic stuff, can duplicate as many as you want anyway.

Last night I was getting an LE related to this mod. I know there has been a new release and a patch since the last update though, so I'll just patiently wait to see if it gets an update.

Yup, been having issues where my sims didn't know how to go home, finally read the lastexception and this was one of two mods mentioned.
