Sims 4: What makes you smile

Looking around at the scenery and all the little details put into the environment, like seeing bees or fireflies in Willow Creek, reptiles and snakes in Strangerville and Selvadorada, or watching the aurora over a green neighbourhood. Things like that make me smile a lot ❤️

I just found a new place in Windenburg where my Sims can fish. This makes me smile. A lot! I thought I'd looked everywhere, too. :open_mouth:

When parents play with their toddlers.

When family members play pretend while the toddlers make believe, and the little adorable Crayon World that only the toddlers can see pops up - I love it!

Autonomous Romantic interactions between two Sims who love each other.

I don't know if this counts, but lately I've been smiling and having a good time when a specific song comes up in Build/Buy mode - I believe it came with Realm of Magic but it could just as easily have come with Strangerville. During the course of the song, there's an evil-ish laugh that sounds like it was done by a child. I look forward to that song and that moment every time.

When male sims get to a high enough singing level and they start singing opera.

When any sim practices singing at a low level :D

My toddler hugging the dog, cutest animation!

Seeing toddlers run, that always puts a smile on my face. So cute!!

Seeing crazily dressed townies! :lol:

The way kids giggle through their karaoke!

Drinking hot cocoa in a cafe while it’s snowing and listening to smooth tunes in the background.

Seeing my Sims meaningfully multitask, like when my kid Sim is doing her homework while sitting on her bed, and next to her is her toddler sister eating, and they're both talking. It's just so fun and realistic. I thought I wouldn't care about multitasking when I first got Sims 4, but it really adds a lot of charm.

I was playing the black widow challenge. She finally had enough money to move from the dump she lived in. She walked into her new house and jumped into the air, kicked her feet together and punched her right fist to the left while saying what sounded like "YES"I nearly choked on the water I was drinking and burst out laughing. Then I said out loud HAPPY ARE YOU!!!!
