Do you always go for to "Top Notch Infant" and "Happy Toddler" traits?

I always choose the calm trait for infants...because I need the kids to be chill lol.

I usually age infants up to toddler immediately. I do generally play toddlers until they are ready to achieve the Happy Toddler trait though. If you have toys scattered around the house they'll develop imagination and motor pretty much without any help from an adult. The giant plushies help with social, also having a sibling. The two that require adult intervention to keep pace are Thinking and Potty.

My toddlers all earn the Happy Toddler and Top Notch Toddler traits. I still haven't played with infants yet. That's on hold until my current couple ties the knot.

Always, even in my games with aging on. Of course, milestones made getting the highest toddler one more challenging, but I do it anyway lol.

Happy Toddler? I usually go for Top Notch Toddler!

Though what helps is long lifespan (or turning the aging off).

Nah, not everyone gets to be gifted ;)
(same with the child aspirations)

The kids who do have legitimately happy childhoods-- enough to eat, enough attention from loving caregivers-- I do try to get Happy Toddler. Only a few prodigies get Top-Notch Toddler.

Yup. All my sim babies/toddlers deserve it. :p

yeah I have bad habit of doing everything top notch before I age sim up even if it barely matters :sweat_smile:

I'm trying to get over doing that cause it really makes no sense to max my sims into these super sims being all perfectionist about it and then feed them to cowplants or something :joy:

+I really should just do something different with my infant-teen sims I feel like I always default to making them too perfect and studious and likeable and it isn't realistic

It all depends on what I want at the time. Recently, I haven't played much outside of my series on my YouTube channel because when I'm not recording or editing, I'm setting up a base save with the premades for my personal gameplay (remodeling/redecorating houses and all that stuff).

Is the top notch bug fixed?? (You don't get the trait without cheating)
