Let the Grass Grow so that we can Mow

Now, I know many players would not like this. But some of us players like the everyday mundane things such as mowing the lawn. So, I would like to suggest Lawn Care. I would like to see this as an option.

Let us have the option of letting the grass grow, so that our Sims can use lawn mowers to mow the lawn. Allow Sims to earn some extra money from chores or a side job, by mowing lawns. Allow Sims to ask their neighbors if they can mow their lawn for some quick money. Allow gardening services to add lawn mowing to their services. Allow senior Sims the ability to tell everyone to get off their lawn. Maybe adult Sims can start doing that too. Allow Adult Sims get a thrill about getting a new lawn mower. Allow neighbors to complain about your lawn if it grows to long. Provide lawn mowers, riding lawnmowers, manual old fashioned lawn mowers, a reaper or a goat that will keep your lawn maintained, while also providing some milk for off grid eco-friendly Sims. Make it so that Sims can hear lawn mowers going during the summer months. Include a miniature golf game or croquet, so that Sims can enjoy a game of golf on their beautifully, maintained lawns. In CAS give Sims a couple of pairs of gloves. One for gardening and fingerless ones for handling lawn mowers. Give Sims a pair of jean and shoes with grass stains. I also think golfing attire would fit this theme. Allow toddlers and children to pick dandelions and be able to give it to someone. They should also be able to blow on them.

I can't think of anything else to add. If you have any ideas to add, please leave a comment.

    Would be great if they added wood chopping and made all the wood burning stoves and fireplaces work with fire logs. They could even add Oak and Fir seeds that we could plant to grow into new trees, so it doesn't look like we're chopping up the forest. Though we could just chop up the dead fruit trees.

    Let us grow trees, then. For a less green alternative... Could we power things with ethanol, if we already grow trees?

    this would be cute because kids could even mow other people's lawns for money or help and gain responsibility and become selfless. And maybe there can be allowance if a child or teen completes a certain amount of chores they get some simoleans.


    A lawn mowing kit, plus a composter item as BG update could work to composting mowed grass and leaves (Seasons required).
