No idea whether this is on the radar with TPTB, but I would love a pack focused on two things: Elders and crafts.
It would be nice to have a sort of retirement pack (with accessibility to some of the skills included for age groups from children upwards) where Elders would be able to collect pension and have the option to live in a retirement home/community and get to explore hobbies and crafts like sewing, knitting, crochet etc. Have a place to play bingo or cards, socialize with other Elders in the world, babysit their grandkids (instead of them being sent to daycare or hiting a Nanny, have there be an option to call a grandparent).
Even not having that as one pack but maybe two stuff ones:
one for Elders - Elder Community Stuff, with the possible retirement community, additional interactions and activities specific to Elders that I mentioned. Maybe have the ability to write a recipe book that could be given to their descendants so they could learn those recipes when they read the book (instead of, say, having to travel places and trying those dishes first. It could even have an Aspiration: Passing on the Legacy, which would require things like telling family stories, teaching recipes, etc.
and one for Crafts. It would be cute to have CAS items unlockable via the skill the way books can be written and paintings done - the more you knit, say, the more items you unlock for your save. All these crafts could be: knitting, crochet, jewelry making, hat making, weaving and probably others I can't think of. All of these would have the possibility of creating items either for deco or usability (like weaving one's own laundry basket the way we can make furniture on the woodworking table, or as I mentioned above, unlock items for CAS. Even if the selection was limited the way paintings and woodworking items are, it would add a lovely homey layer to the game.
(Look I just really want more crafts in the game ;))
