Hey I was fooling around I put a child on an herb & she collected it & took it back to the table in the alchemy lab. GOSH that means children can collect while the adults keep working. And,children are faster at getting the herbs to the lab. Did anyone else discover this?

That's one of the tips that you get from clicking the mask.

what mask is that,LadyCFII?

There's a green and purple mask on the main screen, right next to the buttons that you use to access the various screens. There's a similar mask in all of the Virtual Villagers games, and clicking it gives lots of random game tips. All LDW games have some form of accessing game tips like that.

THANKS
