Quinceañera party

A new celebration when a child (or pre-teen if the future bring us a new lifestage) reaches the teen stage.
  • Is it like a Sweet Sixteen party? We definitely need more things for teen Sims in the game.

    Basically. In some latin american countries, the quinceañera is a special celebration when a teen boy, but mainly girls, reaches the 15 years old.
  • I would love this if it came with special interactions or activities, otherwise I suppose a big bash birthday party would do.

    Teens are tall enough to pass for 15, so it could be the birthday when they turn teens?

    I think you could just hold the party in the middle of the lifestage without them actually aging up.


    Either of those would probably work well. I especially like the idea of having the party at some point the player chooses in the teen stage. :)
  • I guess they could do a coming of age party. Like not necessarily a birthday party. They could do it in the middle of the teen lifestage and have specific sentiments tied to it. Close family members can give speeches and advice to the teen.

    This could cover different teen/coming of age celebrations from different cultures like sweet sixteen, quincenarea, bar mitzvah and etc.

    They could have customizable activities like the wedding events.
