growing together refresh

Growing together added a lot of interesting gameplay features related to infants and toddlers. However, there are still a lot of features that can be added to further enhance gameplay. Especially since business and hobbies now allows sims to operate daycares.

  1. functional strollers and car seats: I'd like to see a stroller object that can be used to take walks and jog with infants and toddler. The infant carrier is not enough. I'd also like to see functional car seats that can be attached to bicycles. Sims can ride around on bikes with their infant or toddler secured in the car seat.
  2. infant walkers: infants can practice standing up and walking using new functional walkers.
  3. add more rattle and teething ring options.
  4. craftable baby food: allow parents to craft jars of baby food and flavored milk bottles from harvestables and cottage living milk. This will be a great feature, especially since a lot of babies acquire the picky eater quirk.
  5. reusable cloth diapers. Sims can purchase cloth diapers via the computer or craft them via the cross-stitch box, which can be washed and reused if laundry day is installed. Cloth diapers can be stored in the changing table. If the sim runs out of clean diapers, they will have to resort to a disposable diaper.
  6. refillable water bottles: there is a blue water bottle that came with growing together (debug) and I'm not sure why there isn't a feature for sims to purchase water bottles, fill them, and place them in their inventory. If a sim is traveling outdoors during hot weather, they can use the water bottle to cool off. There should also be a functional thermos object that allows sims to transfer hot beverages into the thermos, place it in their inventory, and use it when traveling in cold weather.
  7. better interactive shells. There are a few world objects in San Sequoia that should be interactive shells. The greenhouse should allow sims to increase their gardening skill with rabbithole interactions. The boathouse in hopewell hills should be an interactive shell that allows sims to order food and drink and use travel interactions (similar to the business and hobbies train station).

  • Yes to all of this also don't forget the Pacifiers for both toddlers and infants and maybe even newborns.

    Yes, pacifiers are a must for self - soothing. Also, I wouldn't mind an additional age group for kindergarten aged child sims. It doesn't make sense for toddlers to age up into a primary school aged child.
