Toddler Stuff has no toddler beds, potties, high chairs, etc?

Edit: Yes, this post is dramatic and so was the original title, obviously the pack has some items for toddlers. My issue is simply that in my opinion a pack titled toddler stuff should include new variations of toddler beds, potties and high chairs and this post is just me voicing my disappointment that those items weren't included. Thats it, nothing more to it.


This pack has confused me since it came out, for a pack centered around toddlers, you'd expect to see the standard toddler essentials. New toddler beds, new toddler potties, new high chairs, yknow the typical toddler stuff that you use all the time when playing with toddlers. Instead, none of these items are included in the pack and instead you get weird random rainbow park items.

The main feature of the pack is a giant tunnel thing which is not very unusable unless you have a lot designed specifically for it, then theres the ball pool which was a decent item but some questionable design choices were made. Some of the clothes are cute, but honestly I don't really see them as an upgrade on what we already have and I forget they're there most the time.
I just feel like you have to go out of your way to make a rainbow park for any of this stuff to be usable. The extent of the actual usable items for toddlers in this pack is one slide and that's it. (the cushions and fairy lights are cute aswell, but they're not really "toddler stuff")

Don't get me wrong the rainbow park stuff is pretty but I just don't get it, since the pack is focused entirely on play date stuff the title should be "Play Date Stuff" instead as for me I would expect a pack called "Toddler Stuff" to include the items I mentioned.
Again, this is just my opinion on the pack. I was disappointed when I purchased the pack and found that it didn't bring any new beds and high chairs which are what I expected it to include from the title.

    @IceyJ I don't know if you're talking about the reactions from simmers on the forums or in general but I would encourage you to check out a review video of the pack on YouTube and look at the top comments. 'Nough said on that

    Also it's not just not the stuff I excepted it's just not a full toddler experience for a pack that is dedicated on that life stage and easily had the budget to add a few more items that were not
    of the outdoor playground type.

    Also y'all taking the title too seriously. Of course she didn't mean there are absolutely no items for the toddlers. It was just an exaggeration. People use that in written and spoken word...


    Ok.

    "But it does have stuff for toddlers. Just not the stuff you expected. It includes play stuff and CAS items for toddlers a.k.a. stuff for toddlers. Stuff is a vague term. It could mean anything."

    Exactly what I was about to say.

    So rather than criticizing the pack, it would be better to request these items in the feedback section. It's the best way to get what you want added to the game.


    Titles already been changed, nowhere does it say that say there's no toddler stuff anymore. :)

    And it's a public forum, people voice their opinions and criticise features in packs all the time, same as the many, many threads dedicated to complaining about cars and eco lifestyle.

    Also apologies if my responses sound rude, I just find it frustrating how people complain about features in this game all the time and everyone's fine with it, yet when I post about my disappointment with a certain pack I'm "looking for something to complain about"


    I have no idea what your original title was. I was responding to comments in the thread.

    To people who say: "Oh I like the stuff that came with the pack cause it's different and we already have high chairs"
    Do you realize you could have both these items and also more toddler stuff like high chairs, potties etc.?
    You are paying 10$ for this pack, it should have enough stuff!


    It also adds to their imaginative skills and friends with the invitation to Toddler events that help them growing up to the child level, so is useful that way. I consider it a useful pack to have if you like playing with them. Tie up to Cubs possibly but I haven't tried that yet. Maybe a Mother's Union? Dad's Club...must have children, with invitations to parties included?


    The items also build Movement skill which is useful.
