I love the kits and am excited to see what the SimGurus have in store for us next!! If you could choose, which kit would you most like to see incorporated into the game? If your idea isn't listed, I would love to hear what you've dreamed up!!

Here are some of my kit ideas, but I would love to hear what you guys have thought up and would like to see next!!! Is there a kit you like most?? Any additions or changes to the ones I thought of?? 1. Indoor gardening - we could have herbs in little mason jars, planted along the window sill; decorations along those lines including fertilizer and more realistic house plants, such as a potato vine or little ivy to adorn our shelves; also, common plants included like rosemary, oranges (why do we not have these), paprika, oregano, ect... 2. Swimming pool update - diving board and gameplay of teaching the toddlers and kiddos to swim; additional items could be pool noodles, inner tubes, the shark fin helmet kids wear to scare others (could also be game play), beach styled umbrellas that don't stand but lay down in the sand3. Cars - they have already programmed moving vehicles into the game if you travel to different lots. Not sure how difficult it would be to reintroduce this as a game play option, but it would be incredible if it could. we could have cars, 3-4 vehicle types with varying swatches. gameplay could be driving of course, then teaching teens to drive or sending them to drivers ed, getting tickets every once in a while. But i don't like it when they pick up the bike and ride it and it stay in the inventory...the car would have to be re parked in the street or driveway...Perhaps, we could also slip in bikes here also. Helmets and knee pads, or the racks to place the bikes in- an easy add in build mode or to the university lots...4. All jazz - addition of saxophone, trumpet, and trombone to the game - inspiration from the greats (Nat King Cole, Ella Fitzgerald, Miles Davis, Louis Armstrong, Frank Sinatra...) We could learn as kids and teens, perform on the street for tips and fame, play on the stage or in clubs...we could even expand this pack to a full world, New Orleans themed (Garden District, The Hotel Royal, French Quarter, Bourbon Street) with gameplay from get famous and vampires and magic. We could build a speak easy, renovated for the times or untouched to live out its glory. There could be horse drawn carriage rides, art vendors in the street, new and mouth-watering foods, perhaps some voodoo??? (OBVIOUSLY this EP would sell itself on the beignets alone..heheh!)5. BABIES!!! gameplay to pick them up and carry them around, move them from one bassinet to another, so they aren't this inanimate object you barely interact with!! Additionally, they could spit up and have their clothes changed. Decoration- diaper pails, wet wipes, random bottles to place in the kitchen, rattles, different mobile to hangs over the cribs - maybe animal themed like giraffes or zebras? 6. Picnic kit - little baskets and blankets, go on family outings to the park all walking together, or even just in the backyard. We could also add in a frisbee or American football gameplay...that was always my favorite part of picnic when I was younger. If additional items were needed, we could have more hats or sunglasses, more blowing bubbles and sunscreen interactions7. Cooking with kids - I miss the kids being able to use the easy bake oven...but if most dont want that back then we could add in game play to allow kids to make simple things...a sandwich or soup in the microwave, allow them to "help out" with dinner, ask them to "set the table" for respectful or responsible trait gains. We could even allow them to bake in the oven with parental supervision, like how we can get the parents to help with homework. 8. Fitness items - dumbbells, jump rope, skates, skateboard, ect... Decor could be motivational posters or stinky tennis shoes9. Canoeing or kayaking - instead of fishing you can walk down to the river and go canoeing by clicking on the sign...I think it would be brilliant addition of water sports to the other worlds, outside of Sulani. I also believe it would be an easy addition, as the jet ski and small boat are already incorporated. Decor and CAS items could be life jackets (automatic over whatever top the sim has on, whether it be a swimsuit or a t shirt), nature posters, helmets, backpacks to bring food and water with you, canoes or kayaks with shelving in build mode to add to the garage. 10. Astrology pack - small telescopes for home usage, incredible posters of space, they can capture pictures of what they see and frame it, random personalities or love interests or fears based on zodiac signs (you could assign this or toggle the interaction off/on if you wish) and perhaps even a "check your horoscope" interaction, and lastly, teach kiddos about the stars when stargazing, sending the sims to visit a planetarium or observatory.

@Calico45 I totally forgot about making nectar!! That should definitely be included!! What about voodoo as part of a New Orleans pack?? Does that count as supernatural??

I think it would be awesome to have an entire lawn and gardening pack- You have to mow the lawn, have a green house, etc. Greenhouses have been in Sims games before, but I've never seen much in the way of lawn care and actually having to buy lawnmowers and things... I think it would be interesting. The most "yard maintenance" that comes to mind for me is having to pull weeds and water the flowers in TS2, aside from gardening in any game. Just an idea :D

The sims could plant little things on the window sills, perhaps their own flowers in window boxes, and then mow their lawn!!!! What would a good name for it be though???

MUSIC. For the love of God, give me more than just drums and the bass. Give me woodwinds, brass instruments, more percussion. More than we've ever had before. Please!

I would totally have my sims learn to play the saxophone and just be street performer, spread their art to the world!!! Absolutely agree :))

I would love to see a romance kit! It could have more romantic interactions and some romance themed objects as well. I think that the game needs more romance interactions since there aren't that many, and this could be a good way to do it! It could maybe add more types of kisses and hugs, and bring back cuddling in bed. And of course, romance themed objects would also be great.

This slipped my mind, but I absolutely adore this!! I definitely want this- slow dancing, letting the kiddos stand on their feet to dance, cuddling in bed, ect...BRILLIANT!!!

I really like that idea. I started playing TS2 again, and it's just made me realize how much they don't have in terms of romance in TS3, and even less in TS4! A romance themed kit/pack would be pretty awesome.

That would be awesome. I'm not sure what they could name it... But honestly speaking, they have the potential for it to be a full stuff pack instead of a kit :D Either way I'm happy, as long as they add more lawn/garden stuff to do! It would be especially cool if Sims could ask their Teens to mow the lawn (and get happy moodlets or something for completing "chores"), and having more for gardening like taking care of flowers and stuff would be really cool for my Elder sims. It would give them a little more to do, you know?

Seeing as the kits only add 1 game play object I cant imagine being that interested to buy many of them though there's a few things I would get...

- Pool table
- Pool slide and diving board
- Skateboards
- New style of car if cars are ever patched in
- Clothing pack for adult male-teen Sims or children toddler and babies but not skin tight clothing and horrible colors or I will pass like I did on their not so 90s pack

But really most things I want I would rather its game play be deeper and not just a single object like drums should be added with bands not as a solo object.

Hadn't crossed my mind, picnics, but that is a sweet idea! Would've picked babies, but would rather baby interactions as a base game. Would buy a kit for more baby furniture, toys E.T.C. If they update babies.
