Hope you have fun. It's a bit easier than when I originally set it up - they changed the goals of the tiers with a patch and most of them are easier to reach now.
But if you get a child through one aspiration tier, you can always do a second.
@_samspugarmy_ I'm way late in seeing this. Credit for the challenge would have been awesome but I'm always glad to hear about people actually playing them. Whether or not they mention who created it.
I just finished the challenge I loved it,the children completed their aspirations, but I am thinking of adding on to the challenge, I am going to also play their teen years but, I am going to make it that they must complete their First Adulthood aspirations before they become young adults, just to make the challenge longer, and also to make the challenge harder the mum and dad are having another baby and that baby must grow up to be like one of his/her sibling, the mum is still pregnant right now, and the kids are almost teens, Is it okay if I do this or is it against the rules?
@Nicarra60 I am looking for something 'new' to play for a challenge.
There have been quite a few game updates and changes to the Aspirations since this was posted.
Have there been any changes in the challenge guidelines?
A couple of skill tips for Child Sims I have discovered along the way.
Fishing increases Logic
Cloud or Star Gazing increases Creativity
Changing to the Social Butterfly Aspiration and using 'Make New Friends' while the Child is at school boosts Social and helps complete that aspiration.
Playing horseshoes (Outdoor Retreat) or Don't Wake the Llama (Get Together) increases Motor Skills.
A tip for this challenge is to be use the vacation days and call in sick. You can get the adult sim to start writing so she or he can make excuse notes for the kids. Thos can make it alot easier, especially if you switch it up and get 2 kids going to school while you work on the skills for the ones stayimg at home.
Another tip is to let the adult enter the science career so you can get a cloning machine. Clone the elixir that makes your sim gain sleep without sleeping and give it to the kids when they are getting tired. But im not sure how thatd work without those extra days you have in the wonder child challenge (this was one of my strategies for it)
For me this challenge is easy, since i had two wonder children in one go. That was tough haha
I've started playing this challenge, I must say that it's very entertaining to watch at points. However, me being an introvert I tend to give my sims the 'Loner' trait this means I don't have to go out and talk to any other sims, because of this I'm having trouble with the social aspiration for one of my kids. on the brighter side both my mental and creative kid have finished their aspirations and are now on a new one. Being the low life that I am, I think that once I've finished this challenge I'm going the keep one of them preferably my original creative boy. You can probably tell what I'll do with the others, but hey. I've got about five days left to finish so it's getting pretty intense. I know this thread is old but maybe someone out there will see this, if so, I'll be updating my go on this challenge once I've finished it. I have to say this is a very fun and interesting challenge, you really have to use your intuitive to get around having one computer and three people needing to use it or all the kids coming home from school with red needs.
I hope anyone out there who is or will play this challenge has fun because I sure am.
I've been procrastinating again, but I've finally finished this challenge all of my kids got their aspirations apart from one. One of my sims got two. When it comes down to it using vacation days is really important! I hope some more challenges will be coming in now we have toddlers.
