The Sims On Social Media
Some of you may recall I started the Sim Gurus On Twitter thread in 2018 and passed the torch to Duvelina in 2020. She has informed me that she hasn't been including tweets from the official The Sims Twitter (X) so I thought I'd start a thread for info from The Sims. Twitter (X), Facebook, and Instagram. Also info from EA when it relates to TS4. If you're interested you can also check out my announcement threads for The Sims Mobile and The Sims Freeplay.

What happened in your game today?
Hi everyone! I hope you're all enjoying the new forum so far. I know I am!! I'm Charla, a big fan of The Sims 4! ☺️ I was going to join on the old one, but, as it only had a week left I decided to wait until today. I loved lurking on the what happened in your game today thread so I thought would create a new one here. So what's happened in your game today? Today in my game I was playing as a character I created, Lauren Lord. She's an young adult, who dreams of being an author and a mom. Currently she's working as a school teacher, but today she had no work, she stayed at home and played chess and tended to her plants (when it wasn't raining!). I also made this new Sim :) hope the pic works! Look forward to seeing what's happening in your games. X

Just to Prove to Myself, I Wasn't Dreaming
Something very strange just happened in my game. Very odd indeed. I was looking for Melodie when I came upon this oddity: And then things glitched out: Bab's Glory still a foal, morphed out for a bit and then came down the slide. HELP I think my game is haunted or something! P.S. No, I don't have any new mods.
Kit bundles
I was surprised when I saw this on EA app. The kits are never on sale, but now there's a kit bundle! I think I would like to see more bundles like this. Although kits going on sale would be even better, because I already own quite many of them and can't bundle the ones I own 🤔😅 What kit bundles would you like to see?

Raising a child in the Sims 4 has become quite complex and challenging. Seasons and Get Famous brought us after school activities. Our child sims can join Scouting and Drama clubs. Reaching the highest rank in scouting awards your child the Scouting Aptitude reward trait which boosts skill gains by 25%. Parenthood introduced Character Values: Manners, Empathy, Responsibility, Emotional Control, and Conflict Resolution. Achieving high or low levels in these values will lead to a corresponding Reward Trait in the young adult stage. Growing Together featured Childhood Confidence. Developing high confidence in the childhood stage leads to high self-esteem when aging up to teen. Growing Together also introduced Milestones. While completing all Milestones isn't required it does allow you to keep track of all the key moments in your Sim's life. And in Adventure Awaits our child sims have the opportunity to experience Formative Moments, challenges that grant permanent reward traits. So let's share our child sim moments, ask questions about features, and see if we can make them the best they can be before aging up to teen.
