Bring Back School Buses for More Realism

I think it would be great if children and teens had a school bus to pick them up instead of just disappearing. The bus could pull up in front of the house, and Sims could walk outside to get on. When they return home, the bus could drop them off, making the world feel more alive.

This was a fun detail in past Sims games, and it would add realism. Especially since we already have a school bus in High School Years. It could even honk if a sim is late or have Sims wave goodbye before they leave. Small touches like this make the game feel more immersive.

Not only would this add nostalgia, but it would also give more storytelling opportunities. Parents can have many roles in this. Sims can ask parents to make their lunch for school, send their kids off to school with a hug or rush them out the door if they're late. Maybe there could even be a rare event where the bus breaks down and Sims have to take a different way to school! Little details like this make the game feel more dynamic and engaging for players.

Overall adding school buses back into The Sim 4 would make the game feel more alive, immersive and fun. Its a small feature that could have a big impact on realism and storytelling. I really hope to see my idea in a future update!

Thanks!
