hi im 13 and im from argentina so sorry for my english(it won't be the best you ever seen)I think it would be great if:
*the children can learn from the adults when they are masters or esteemed elders, like Jaruna said
*i also like the idea of mingames , to do the game more interactive.you can, for example, make combinations of collectibles at the research table
*when a baby borns, you can select who'll care him, his dad or his mom.another idea is having a nannywho cares him and win parenting points.he/she could be an old man/woman
*can be special collectibles wich can be spent in special stews or formulas at research table

if i have another good idea i'll write it
thanks to LDW for doing virtual villagers and for gie me the oportunity to tell m ideas
