Oh, that's too bad! It looks like it's mostly nightshades and new world vegetables?
Peas are easy to grow most places, and so delicious when they're fresh from the vine.
How about corn? I guess success is iffy, but a neat thing to grow.
All kinds of greens -- easy and also very fast from seed to edibility. Spinach, lettuce, chard. Kids aren't always super-excited about greens, though!
Broccoli, cauliflower. You can grow purple cauliflower, which is fun.
Carrots. Again, you can get rainbow varieties, plus they're fun for kids to harvest.
Radishes (maybe too spicy).
