Stuff packs you'd love to have

What stuff packs would you like to see in game? What themes? Are there specific gameplay items or objects? I'm curious to see what others would want to see implemented in the stuff pack format
There are many I'd love for the devs to develop but here are two I've been thinking about recently in particular:
1) The elders stuff pack!!!
Yes, another age based stuff pack aimed to give a little more love to elders.
Game play: some activities often associated with older people, but nothing exclusive to them
-Knitting; a new skill based activity which could function like the woodworking bench. Sims could level up to make increasingly nice and marketable objects
-Bingo like game, maybe could be added as a new club activity
Create a sim: new beards, buns, wrinkles and cosy fashion
Build and buy: some vintage furniture, lots of clutter like globes, books and family pictures. Maybe a rocking chair?
2) Sleepover Stuff!
I don't know why but I really want the ability to throw and attend sleepovers.
Game play:
-A new event where kids, teens and young adults can invite their friends over for the night (could be exclusive to weekends). Attending Sims would lose energy at a slower rate.
-New interactions for sims like pillow fights, story telling interaction similar to that in outdoor retreat...
-board games (or a board game table). Tbh this is one of the things if like to see most regardless of what it comes with
CAS: lots of new sleepwear options, slippers, sun blocking eye mask, face mask face paint
Build and buy: lots of new bedroom decor like lights, beds, sleeping bags(!), cushions, wallpapers, wall decor....
These are just two ideas put of so many. But seeing as so many people are against stiff packs, are there any you'd really like to see?

I think a circus game pack would be really cool. It could add a new "festival type of event where a circus spawns in an area. There could be new food stalls e.g. with cotton candy. New skills like juggling and tight rope walking. Manb maybe clowns could be imprived to work like the living statue where aim could perform to get money, and maybe we could get mimes too
I would love some sort of emo, gothbor punk subculture stuff packs. It would add nice variety to what we have in game atm. Bands would be really cool too but I think that's way too big for a stuff pack format.bat the moment I use get together to make clubs which play music together. But it's not the best as one might imagine
Additional aspirations would be a nice idea for them for sure

From what I would like from bands, it wouldn't be too big as to be part of a GP or be a small bit in an EP. Basically adding bass guitar and/or drums and then the ability to ask people who know how to use instruments to form bands together, and then you get a new interaction to invite the band over for practice and then book places to play at that people can give tips when you play.
If they ever do a celebrity GP/EP, I'd image they could do something more in depth--like adding different types of bands, a stadium, swag to make/buy, more instruments--but I think the way I could image bands being put into a SP, it wouldn't be any more than adding party types in Spooky Stuff or Luxury Party. Like, if they're not gonna add a pretty cool rock star career, I think maybe having bands in my ideal SP would be alright.
I imagine if we get things like a farm expansion there would be lots more for dogs and potentially cats to do which would be nice. If we ever get small pets I also imagine they would extend the content available to them.
I don't think they would add a separate stuff pack for cats or dogs but if they do I will be £7.99 short
With bands I think it would require additional music so that instruments sound like they are playing the same melodies or forming complementary sounds so that it's as if the band is actually playing music together rather than playing together but independently of each other. I think we're bound to get some dlc which has bands as a feature since they are very popular and a safe bet for a pack feature
Bands and a singing career would be cool as something like a Late Night/Showtime EP. It would help involve the celebrity aspect too. You shouldn't be famous for knowing famous people.
But what would be even more awesome is to have a music stuff pack! I want my Sims to learn more musical instruments!
recorders were a classic at school when I was little, it would be cute to have them in game for children
this please as a circus performer my self if were not gone a get a circus gp or ep id like ta have a sp at least plus i see circus stuff suggested allot
lookin for lets players an reviewers for tha short/demo version a my game

Yeah my main issue is that I would rather play with a young adult/adult sim when the options are exactly the same for elders. I played once, I made a grandma (who still looked young- I want more wrinkle options!) and made her a small cottage. She baked a lot and was heavily invested in her garden. But for some reason the gameplay felt a bit lacking for what I was going for so in the end I stopped playing and made a young sim who moved out of the city in to a village and had an orchard.
If elders experiences back pain, used walking sticks sometomes, had more options for activities like knitting (which I really want) and such, maybe i wuld play with them more. It could be because I'm young and have a stereotypical vision of what old people are like (not all of course), but right now to me they feel like a less complex version of adult sims
I'm thinking that a Casino Night theme would blend well with stuff for elders and for YAs and adults. It might actually pair well with Luxury Party which is one of the SPs that I don't have.
Currently my elders largely stay with their families. I don't really have a designated "elders' home". I may switch to that for some of them eventually. Anyway, I would like to see some more stuff for elders since I do play them through the end of their lives though generally not by themselves.
