There will be tasks for each level working toward getting an A. Just like in The Sims 3, the Make Friends option will add other children to the child's relationship panel, while also repleneshing the social need. While at school, the child will have the options for Normal, Leave School Early, Make Friends, Study Hard, and Slack Off. A Sim will be a Child for 7 days on the Short lifespan, 14 days on Normal lifespan, and 52 days on Long lifespan.Ĭhildren will start Grade School on the first weekday after aging up to Child. For example, Art Lover is a good trait to pair with Artistic Prodigy. Of course, it's a good idea to choose a trait that goes well with the Aspiration. There are 4 Aspirations to choose from: Artistic Prodigy, Rambunctious Scamp, Social Butterfly, and Whiz Kid. Once a toddler ages up to child, the player will be able to choose a Childhood Aspiration and one Trait. They will keep you busy, though, so be ready!
