I know it’s a little late, but here is a small collection of 20th Anniversary items. Have a great weekend!

Hey 👋

I hope you all had a good time since the last post.

In this week's post I want to talk about Childhood Aspirations in The Sims 4.

In The Sims 4 you have Aspirations instead of lifetime wishes. And those Aspirations can be fulfilled from Children to Elderly Sims. But for now I want to focus on the Childhood Aspirations. Because as the name says it those are only for Children. Right now there are 4 Childhood Aspiration categories available. Creativity, Mental, Motor and Social. All of them with 3 instead of 4 milestones.

The Creativity one has the Artistic Prodigy Aspiration. Which means that the Sim Child wants to become a little Artist and master the Creative Skill to level 10. The Creative Skill will turn into The Painting Skill once the Child has aged up into a teen. When your has mastered the the creativity They can already learn instruments. Because in the last milestone of it the kid has to practice violin 5 hours. So you better protect your ears. As Reward Trait for completing the Aspiration your Sim will get the Creatively Gifted Trait. Which allows your Sims to gain Creative Skills like Painting, Guitar, Violin etc a bit faster than usual.

The Mental Childhood Aspiration is called Whiz Kid. In this Aspiration your Kid has to master the Mental Skill which will later be the Logic Skill. As in the Creative Aspiration once your kid has completed the Aspiration they will get The Mentally Gifted reward. Like in the Artistic Prodigy Aspiration your Sim Kid has to craft 3 emotional potions. Let them experiment with the Science Table but be careful though because it might happen that your little Scientists will set your house on fire while using it. You should place it outside of your house just to make sure that your family is safe. At level 10 of Mental Skill your Sims can learn the logic Skill for Example.

Up next is The Motor Aspiration called Rambunctious Scamp. In This Aspiration it is all about mastering the Motor Skill which will later be the Fitness Skill for example. Once your Sim has completed the Aspiration they earn the Physically Gifted reward Trait.

The Trait gives your Sim a little boost when it comes to leveling up Skills like the Fitness Skill.

The Final one of the Childhood Aspirations is the Social Aspiration called Social Butterfly. To complete this Aspiration your Kid has to master the Social Skill which will later be the Charisma Skill. At Level 10 of the Social Skill Your Sim is able to start leveling the Charisma Skill. Your Kid has to make 5 friends during the Aspiration too. As Reward Trait for completing the Aspiration your Sim will earn the Socially Gifted reward Trait. This Trait will boost your Charisma Skill for example later.

As usual here are My "Last Words" about Childhood Aspirations.

The Childhood Aspirations are fun to play with but since the Sims 4 has launched we didn't get new ones. Which is a little bit disappointing because they become too repetitive once you've tried all of them.

And this wraps up this weeks post about Childhood Aspirations. I hope you enjoyed it. If you do like the post please like it share it and reblog it.

As always I'll post next week until then happy simming and remember to always keep Simming

Lot Name: Oasis Haven ”Under The Plumbob Podcast” Week 2 CAS Build Challenge

Description: Create a house using only the Basegame, Get Together, Dine Out, and Cool Kitchen Stuff. I used a floor plan found on Pinterest as inspiration. 

This challenge really made me step out of my comfort zone of using CC. I enjoyed discovering content from past games, and building a smaller “starter” home. 

The house is an open floor plan with 2 bedrooms, one being used as an office space with a coffee bar included. Beautiful outdoor space with a pool. Plenty of room on the lot to expand if needed. 

Location: Oasis Springs Lot: Nookstone Size: 30x20 Value: $68,655

I know it’s been a while, but I did a small build I wanted to share. I hope y’all enjoy!

It’s mind boggling where you get inspiration at times! I hope everyone is hanging in there, I know it’s really tough for so many right now. Keep your heads up, this will calm down and get under control as soon as they have a solid treatment.

I wanted to have the option to mix and match pack specific B&B, so I’ve started slowly working on it in between my other WIP.  I decided to start with the Moschino windows thanks to https://jenpants.tumblr.com/ for the idea!
