“sweet sweet chaotic energy” LOL. I’m so adding these holidays to my game! Thank you
Ahahaha chaos just enhances the sims game in my mind :)
I like to set seasons for 14 days so that I can add plenty of holidays, like these:
January: Polar Bear Plunge
February: Valentine's Day, Super Bowl Sunday
March: Spring Cleaning, St. Patrick's Day
April: April Fool's Day, Easter
May: Cinco de Mayo, Memorial Day
June: Pride Day
July: Independence Day
August: Summer Barbecue
September: Labor Day (the least exciting holiday)
October: Halloween
November: Thanksgiving
December: Christmas, New Year's Eve
I have a few custom holidays. I usually make a holiday at the beginning of Winter to put up Winterfest decorations so it’s like getting prepared for the holiday season. I’ll also have my sims purchase gifts to give to each other from plopsy or buy gifts from phone to exchange on Winterfest day. Also, Treat Yo Self Day (from Parks & Rec tv show) have sims do any self care stuff like go out (to a restaurant or spa), spa activities, and water activities like using hot tub or bathhouse in Snowy Escape. Anything you consider self care. I like to do 28 day seasons because I play long lifespans for legacy gameplay.
I made a Vlad appreciation day for my vampire Sims. The holiday is. Appreciating Vlad's photo and fasting.
The day after is the vampire feast day.
I love the barbecue idea! In America we have independence day where we barbecue set of fireworks drink and swim. I added it to my calendar and called it simdependence day lol
Nice 🤣
I am stealing this idea for my own sims thank you very much :)
@@pinkdoor2450aw cool! I'm glad you like the idea
simdependence day is genius, I opted for a sims 3 callback and went with leisure day
Same I just call it the 4th of July 😂😂
If you have the university add on it's great to have a freshers week party. With drinking, streaking and whatever else floats your boat! I also add in a harvest festival in the autumn and have my sims be thankful, invite guests and have a grand meal.
I add in Wiccan holidays like Eostre, Samhain, and Yule. Sometimes I also add in other cultural holidays for various Sims, like Pesach and Chanukkah for my Jewish Sims, as well as other ones like Kwanzaa and Diwali. I have a pretty diverse cast among my 20+ families.
try Ramadan Eid , too
@@tugbatok9008 - Next time I have a Muslim Sim, I intend to. I have one on PC, but it's a shared device, so I don't play there often. I haven't created one on PS4 yet.
Oh no, your Sims are going to freeze to death all over the place! xD Spring cleaning is a great idea, I need to clean out inventories and do chores anyway, so why not? Remembrance day sounds great too. Could be placed right after Halloween.
Ooh I really like that placement for Remembrance day! The spring cleaning one is such an easy holiday to do for any sim too which can be nice.
#1 Install the extreme violence mod and create purge day.
I have Patriots Day, the equivalent of the 4th of July/Memorial day. Day off of work, shoot off fireworks, be thankful, and visit a gravestone or urn.
I love it!
Simdependence Day!
I love the Wild Winter suggestion. In my game I have "Remembersnce Day" with all the same activities but I just call it "Memento Mori".
Every Halloween in the sims i set the house lot to a haunted residential to add some more spookiness and I make my sim use the medium table like if they are playing with the ouja board and I put some spooky props around and the ghost candies
Nobody:
Literally no one:
Petey: Fight dat flower bunny🐰
Sweet sweet chaotic monsta
Love this! One of my favourite things to do is to change up holidays on my sims calendar so I'm grateful for all suggestions 💕
Hooray for variety! :) I feel I just clog up my game with heaps of holidays... I need to take a page from your book and have a few running at a time and rotate :)
I really want a Flower Bunny plush... So cute!
I call Halloween "Spooky Day" :3
I loved all these ideas! You are very entertaining and your ideas are just perfect! The wild winter holiday was just halarious! You are great at this and you should never give up!
Awe shucks thank you Katarina! Nope defs not giving up!
Love these ideas!! Please could you do a similar video about club ideas?? I'm always stuck on what clubs to add!
I totally can and totally will! It's on the list... but I haven't actually put a date down for when I'm going to do it as I want to add more clubs and families that run them into my neighbourhood before I do. It might not be for a little while but it will happen!
I got seasons yesterday and I made a holiday called chaos day. It’s set in the winter too and has fighting, mean interactions, streaking, polar bear plunging… you get the idea 😂
Also for some reason I’m missing the fireworks holiday tradition?
I am loving you chaos day! And I think the fireworks tradition comes with the city living expansion pack.
Oh yeah searched fireworks. It indeed does come with city living
I have my seasons set to 14 days and give th/F-TW as summer vacation for the kids parents who work weekend jobs still go to work and on the Monday in the middle of summer vacation is independence day so everyone gets to be off fireworks and BBQ. I also add winterfest Eve so winterfest so santa comes the night before and we have to bake for him. But yeah I have 2 holidays per season so 1 per week. Winter-New Years Eve/Winterfest eve+Winterfest, Spring- Love day/Easter Summer - Summer Vaction + Sim INdependance day/ Will Wright Day ( gnomes, fires, fasting, cleaning and swimming!) Fall - Thanksgiving/Halloween
Have you ever had a bug where party goals aren't visible if you throw a party during a holiday, because they are both located in the same place on the screen? It's a real party ruiner.
@@Backup_Plan Yeah, I've been penalized for not fulfilling goals I can't see. Did not reach even silver level at that party. 😪
I’ve had seasons for a LONG time and didn’t realise you could create your own holidays ! Thanks for this
if youre american you can light off fireworks on summer bbq, thats what i tend to do. i also make egg day and spooky day but the rest was new ideas. thank you for this video
No Gay Pride (or Sydney Mardi Gras)? It was the first holiday I created. Fireworks and dancing work well as activities.
Great idea! Definitely going on the calendar. Thanks 💕
Oh my gosh now that you said this I cannot believe I didn't do this! It completely went over my head and I'm outraged at myself!! This is defs going in my game too!
Party spirit, romantic spirit, tell stories, go on vacation or travel (go downtown, of course), and streaking for Pride in my game. But I think you could go without the streaking.
Flower Bunny is camp af and essential Pride guest
Wdym by no gay pride? 🤔
"Remembrance Day adds some realism to the game" *immediately shows a sim sitting on thin air*
i already have a variation of all these except wild winter which is hilarious and is being added immediately haha
Love the Marie Kondo reference! I’m going to try these!
I just realised Easter isn't automatically set up in game, and I'm shook!
Your videos are sooooo helpful and worth watching thank u for helping us out and teaching us cool things🌹
Aww thank you for the really kind comment! Much appreciated :D
I miss the social bunny that used to show up in sims 2 when your sims social was low
It’s not necessarily a holiday idea but close-ish. Is there an option to have a funeral for a sim? I would love to see that feature if they don’t already have it in game.
Hi Caroline! If you have city living then you can use podiums to hold eulogy's for sims. So if you make a church-style lot you can use them to kind of have a funeral. It's a bit clunky though and can be hard to get sims to actually stay the course and sit and watch the funeral.
There are a few prerequisites to hold a eulogy.
1. There needs to be a podium on the lot.
2. Your sim needs to have the tombstone of the sim you want to hold a eulogy for in their inventory.
3. The sim needs to have at least level 6 charisma.
Then you can click on the tombstone in a sim's inventory to give a eulogy.
Sorry it's not more straight forward but I hope that helps :)
I have the "Independence Day" :D
instead of calling it spring clean I'm calling it Marie Condo day 😂
I find it hysterical that the Flower Bunny is a Bro...
you have the best ideas!!
Once I imitated the Eid Ramadan by fasting options but it was soooooo hard :D
Yes this is so cool 😎 i am definitely adding the holidays 😂
I wish there was 21 days instead of 28 for seasons for roleplay I want every week to be like a month in sim time
How about making labor day ?
I didn’t use the real world names I called Easter, bunny day
Aussie Aussie Aussie
Since you're an Aussie, I bet you'd calls shrimp prawns... and the grammar app hates me.
Haha indeed I do call shrimp prawns :)
How do I mute this guy and still understand the video
Oh captions duh
