I don't necessarily think that 'too many toddlers' was too easy, it was moderately a challenge. One kid probably would have been easy, but it did take me awhile to get all the toddlers to 3 or 4 skill, I think I was only missing one skill point, but since you only had to get it to 3, 5 was optional. Some of the things I did to make it slightly easier on me, is turn off aging, I do this anyway so I can control when I have birthdays. I don't actually like my sims dying mysteriously unless I have a specific reason for doing so, only if I was going to make a ghost character, but usually I don't want to do this with most of my sims. Two, the nanny is a incredible resource, whether your sims works or not. My character was a stay at home mom, at least until they hit the child stage, then I might get her a job. I used the money code so she could mostly stay at home. This challenge would have taken longer had she needed a job, but whether you do it the old fashioned way, or use the money code, the nanny is still really helpful. Cause having only a single parent, means you don't get help from a 'coupled' partnership, so honestly I think ppl would be silly not to use a nanny on single-parents, but hey to each either own. It is hard feeding and bathing that many toddlers, but with the nanny helping, it's usually more manageable. Sometimes I invited over random people just to help (hey don't be ashamed to use that resource lol, it really helps alot, because sometimes other ppl will cook food for the toddlers). I actually didn't need to use the high chair once I got the toddlers walking good (I'd say walking and working on potty skill are really essential to toddler care), once they can walk around better, if your sims makes a meal if the toddlers have at least a 1 skill they can usually reach the counters to grab a plate of food and usually they will eat it on a couch or bean bag or ottoman of some kind. So, those are just some of my tips for how I played that scenario. It did take me a few days to complete even with using money codes on, but I didn't find it too easy or too hard.
As to the current challenge, 'holiday challenge' it's actually moderately challenging, even though I finish it in a few hours, thought it might take 2 or 3 days, it took me a good while just to get the other character to like talking to me. But they both still had grudges, and when I went to visit a spa, it said scenario complete, I was still half-way on the grudge meter, so I thought maybe it completed a little too soon, but I worked on them another day, I used the love day as a way to bolster their relationship, and on the same day there was a light festival I spent 3 sim hrs and then hit a spice festival to grab a few plants and try a few curries, and doing so much in one day bolstered the friendship levels to where the sims fell in love on the same day, which is actually pretty funny considering they hated each other and held that grudge, it does take 2 or 3 sim days to diminish the grudge to normal levels, but in some ways this challenge finished in one day, whereas it took me 5 days with toddler challenge.
I did laugh a little over what some of the things you did or didn't do to keep your toddlers going, like I wouldn't have thought to feed them pizza actually (since I like sim cooking and remember the nanny can cook too, though she only does it once a day usually, another thing you can do is have your parent cook 2 or 3 meals in a row and save them for later, that sometimes helps. But I would have also never thought to use a sink to bath toddlers lol, that's just silly but I guess whatever works.
