I took a look at the items in the Toddler Stuff Pack and I have to say I'm extremely disappointed. I know you shouldn't measure a pack by how many items you get but this is just inexcusable. 4 painted stumps, a jungle gym that is then divided into 3 separate items, and what looks to be a single pole that should have been attached to the hanging lights... I'm also upset that the items like the picnic table, hanging lights, ball pit (the balls look horrid and the actual design is just a big rectangle), replica stumps and square rugs just seem lazy. There's nothing really new or exciting about them.I figured I'd come here to see what others thought of this pack.Please refrain from using the "no one is forcing you to buy the games" argument. I've been playing The Sims since the beginning and have bought every pack the day of release up until Sims 4 so I'd like to express my frustration I have with my favorite game franchise.EDIT:I thought I'd add in that I was just thinking they had the potential to include items from Sims 3 for toddlers like new changing tables, baby monitors, the walking tour where toddlers would learn to walk, the playpen, etc. Those are the types of items I would have loved to have seen in a stuff pack about toddlers!

And playing since the beginning has no bearing on that what so ever. I don't buy everything and you don't have to. Most likely I will pass on the Laundry pack.

It's extremely lazy. You can just tell by the ball pit. I also watched review videos and the available swatches looked pretty boring to me, I was hoping for maybe more pastel colors. The only item i actually liked was the grill. CAS is ok ... i guess, even though i hated these "abstract" outfits they went for. Some swatches just look like a hot mess to me. I mean if you can't get the star pattern right... just use another pattern.

but the pole is used for the lights? the other hanging lights already came with both poles attached. the toddler ones allow for less inhibited placement so I don't really understand the issue with those. I think the pack is fairly decent and allows for more varied parks that are also now more friendly to toddlers, children, and families in general. also all the floral jumpers are super cute.

I'm not a family player so I was indifferent about this pack from the announcement but even I am shocked at how much i'm really not into it. That ball pit in particular isn't at the quality level we expect in TS4.First SP I haven't bought.

I agree. I do like the pack in general, but it looks like they put little time into texturing things, like everyone said the ball pit is horrible. And everything is too big. I suppose I shouldn't expect the treehouse thing to be smaller than the regular dollhouses (which are insanely big), but it sucks that they take up so much room. It would have been nice to have smaller things that could realistically fit in a backyard.

I actually really want the Toddler Stuff pack. It looks really fun and appealing to me, and I especially like the CAS items and the slide and the fact I'd be able to host play dates. The only thing I wish that EA/Maxis would add is the ability for toddlers to swim, maybe in like kiddie pools with floaties and stuff. Or even if they can't swim, allow them to have swimsuits and maybe have them be able to play in splash fountains. I know there's a CC/Mod where you can get a toddler pool, but still they can't actually swim in it (rather play in it standing, although that's still cool and I like that the mod creator did that), nor do they have a swimming clothing category for the tikes.

I really hate when people say no one if forcing you to buy

Ignore them.

You have every right to post your likes/dislikes.
The forums are here for everybody.
If a packs bad I want to hear all about it.

I'm not going to recommend a pack if I think it's bad.
If i did EA will think I like it.
9/10 I absolutely hate a lot of the packs content or features

well lets just say i really feel like i cant express myself on these froums at least not like i used too infact i am not sure i am allowed to be posting this very post right now lol
