Child aspirations!

More aspirations sounds like a good idea! Do you have any suggestions for aspirations that you'd like to see for children?

Nope not at the moment just as long as it's something different than the four we have to choose from I'll be just fine lol

I kind of wish there was a cooking/food one for kids, but that would require the return of the kiddie cooking oven.

I miss the children being able to sell cakes on the street to passers by! They should bring it back along with the oven and an aspiration to go with it.

You know what that would be good especially if they brought back lemonade stands and bake sales.

Haha! The should definitely bring them back! I feel they would work a lot better in the Sims 4 than they did in the Sims 3. Barely anyone walked past and bought anything for me.

Ooh! Yes! A Fortune aspiration for kids! Goals could include "Sell three pictures from the activity table" (you can do that using the inventory), "Make 100 Simoleons from a craft or lemonade stand", "Own a craft or lemonade stand", and so on. Maybe they'd add that with a Generations/Free Time EP, with a reward trait to match. I'd love that! :D

maybe 'put on a show' for parents for a Showtime EP for child aspiration?

The thing is the 4 child aspirations match the 4 main groups of adult skills. Unless they add corresponding skills to the adults, or revise how they are divided, they can't add another aspiration to the kids.

At the moment:

Motor Skill = Energized = Fitness (also effects vitality and metabolism)
Mental Skill = Focused = Logic/Programming/Gardening etc.
Creative Skill = Inspired = Painting/Cooking/Instruments/Writing etc.
Social Skill = Confident (and later) Flirty = Charisma/Comedy/Dancing etc.

The categories work, and if you choose just 1 or 2 you could have your child sims working on their preferred adult skills, rather than trying to complete all 4 and not taking advantage of the skill boost early on.
