I truly wonder did the Parenting pack actually make kids worse by this I mean they use to have an idle animation of doing nothing but now all they do is make messes dumping stuff on the floor why is this behavior a default instead of something they do when fun need is low.
Sure children have many activities they can do they can stomp in the pond as someone mentioned or go swimming and do many other things like wear face masks or cross stitch but these are not the type of activates many are asking for when we speak of improving children.
I for one am looking for game play multiple children can do together not always content developed for adults given to children which is usually tied to an object. Let my kids play Marco Polo in the pool or play a game of tag with other children or hide n seek, why can't children ride bikes in the first place I'd love to watch kids ride their bikes around the neighborhood, play in a clubhouse, play super heroes or a game baseball they are mini adults now named children who drop paint on the floor.
