Base game update ideas

I like the idea of a museums update. I've always thought that museums are a wasted opportunity in game. As they are, they mostly just take up space, but correctly used they could be awesome:

• An active or semi-active career as museum curator
  
• Art and other object only available for museum venues (at least without cheating or stealing them)
  
• Museum gift shop items, among other things posters with pictures of the art not available for normal homes
  
• Activities such as guided tours, art classes, archaeology classes where you are mentored in your skill by someone (like you are in a gym) - your skill would increase faster in class than out of it.
  
• Homework activities for Discover University for art students (to go to museums and analyse art)
  
• School trips for high school students (HSY)
  

I think all of these ideas are really cool, although the spirituality update could be tricky because there are so many practices and the sims team seems to mostly keep religion out of the game.
I'd love to see a pool update:
-new water slide object, maybe a few different types if we are lucky
-base game version of the diving board
-new pool interactions like play marco polo or dive to the bottom
-new swimsuits for all ages
-pools added to base game houses in willow creek and oasis springs when appropriate

@Oceancat Yeah,i do agree that they will probably ignore it to avoid backlash for using a real-life religion. That's why "spirituality" would be the focus, with the nuances of the energies and how you deal with it and a brief possibility to create a personal faith (that don't ressemble anything from the real life) + some cas items for cultural identification.

I liked your pool ideas and i've seen many people asking for somethings like that. I'd love jammers, swimming cap and goggles.

I would love to be able to work in the restaurants. I have always wanted to be the chef in my own restaurant. Also, sometimes all of the staff does not show up, if it is the host the only options you have are to close the restaurant or fire the hot during the service and hire a new one. Running a successful restaurant in the Sims 4 is while challenging. It would be a lot more enjoyable if we could take on those roles.

I would also like the sims to be able to go to the hospital when sick and for the hospital to be an actual venue.

I would also like concert to be a type of event that you can arrange.

-cupcake, cookie and lemonade stands for the kids
-dress fitting would be nice
-bachelorette and bachelor party or some made up non-gender conforming term

Is it possible to create a Sims 4 baby shower packet , where we can have the option to have an event ? This would be so much fun. Especially if my sims can ask other sims for money for the baby. Also could the cake tasting stand be more useful, like maybe we can buy a cake there or gain a happy or romantic moodlet?

I would like more clothes/ hairstyle and beard options for everyone. And be able to adjust the height of the sims. In the spa pack, there are no spas that appear in the world for you to go to, to enjoy the spa run by npc without making one myself. Also be able to run your own business that isnt retail/ restaurant. I want to be able to run a cafe or coffee shop. The food stalls can’t be run by my sims either and I have to hire someone to run it. For the nanny, I feel like having the option to pay for x amount of hours for services before hand might be nice. Sometimes they leave when I come back other times they are there really late. If anything, maybe a daycare center be a thing where you can drop baby- toddler off so you can go to work or do other things while your child is taken care of in the mean time. It would also be really cool if that was a thing, and you could become friends with other sim moms and have play dates and know which sims have children similar age to your own. Strollers would be cool!
I once built and ran a restaurant but I had to constantly be there or else I would lose money and it just wouldn’t run. There’s got to be other ways to earn better money running the restaurant cause no matter what I do, I’m never really making profit that would realistically be worthwhile. Maybe like cater events at the restaurant or parties in general? I would love more interactions and stuff to do with the farm animals, or have more farm animals in general with a functional barn that houses the animals that you could see into like you would your house. I also think more sub career options would be nice. Also! I wanna be able to hire someone to help with farm animals or gardening/farming. Or like an assistant?? Idk. There should also be more single and random npc sims. I always make a new character/ world and am left with same old options unless I make them. But although playing multiple sims can be fun it also hard and stressful trying to play them all in my household. I wanna be able to only play my character and interact with the other household members without having to constantly switch between them all. Just like how there is the option to influence the children into doing homework there should be options to talk and influence/suggest to the household members to take care of themselves? Or just have them take care of themselves better and communicate more on feels and wants to each other without having to switch between sims constantly. Not that I want my sims to get hurt, but if they did, like sprained ankle, broken bone, accident etc, going to see the doctor for sickness and wheelchairs and crutches or casts would be an interesting option for the game. I also like the compatibility between sims that’s available for good great and bad compatibility between sims, maybe fated could be an option? Or love at first sight? I also love the milestone moments and think there should be more added. There should be more stuff for pets like wall shelves for cats climbing, more toys etc. it would be pretty cool to have a hiking option with a trail up a mountain where you can forage, find lakes to fish on and live in a cabin jn the woods. Like the ski mountain world but it’s woods for hiking and outdoor living, really rustic. Speaking of rustic, I would love rustic options for decoration and house building. I feel like I was rambling but there is just so much potential and ideas

@Chacha96 I've seen a lot of people asking for a Daycare, an it'd be really cool for babies and nanny gameplay, but they have done so much babies content without it that i doubt we'll ever see it. I really miss hiring a gardener, and an farm assistant would be great too. I can see wheelchairs being introduced as a temporary thing inside the hospital. About the rustic theme it really sounds like Outdoor Retreat which could really use a refresh.

Some smaller updates that I would love:

* exercise bikes (one normal, one instructor - like with the yoga mats), so you can have one at home, or arrange spinning classes at gyms or spas.
* Going on a hike, a walk or a jog together with someone, where sims walk side by side, if walking while talking to each other
* Reading while relaxing in bed or a sunbed
* Talking to someone while relaxing in bed or a sunbed

I'd also love a museum update, but I want enough done with them that it'd probably be a full game pack. At minimum, an active career working at the museum, field trips for HSY, and a return of the TS3 time machine (for museum workers to do research in the past or grab artifacts, for high school students on field trips to sneak into, or for engineer or scientist characters to invent).

On a more "updatey" sort of thing, better matching wood swatches, especially on stairs, pillars, and foundations, and fix the kitchen islands that have the cupboards on the wrong side.

I would like to see the burglar along with burglar alarms back. Also the social worker. My kid just up and disappeared in a poof of smoke.
Also, some Caribbean foods and new career opportunities.
