GTW Children's Dress-up Chest

Obviously at this point, it’s too late to add a children’s dress-up chest for Get To Work, but in the future when they (hopefully) do add such a chest, I hope there are GTW themed outfits. Here are some things kids can do while dressed in those outfits.

While dressed as a cop, children will pull out a magnifying glass. Using the glass, they will peer under surfaces and at the ground as they look for clues. If there is another child on the lot, they can go “Ah-ha!” and dramatically point at the other child as if that child has committed a crime. Alternatively, that action can be performed with any of the large stuffed animals.

While dressed as a doctor, children can examine either other children or any of the toys or large stuffed animals in the game. They can pull out a stethoscope to examine the heart and peer into the eyes and ears. Then they can either slap on a band-aid or “administer medicine”.

While dressed as a mad scientist, children can cackle and have special actions at the potion table, like combining three potions at once. They can also swap out the heads of the large stuffed animals.

Wearing the outfits can give different moodlets in addition to creative. Cops can become confident (So-and-so feels as if they could take on an army of bad guys!), scientists become focused (Oh, the thrill of scientific discovery!) and doctors can also become focused (The hip bone’s connected to the leg bone. The leg bone’s connected to…). Also, there should be a (low) chance of becoming embarrassed if an adult or teen witnesses them playing dress-up.

What other fun outfits should be part of the dress-up chest? I’d like to see reporter.

    Sims 2 had the best kids. If they want a good game they should try copying those interactions for kids and the imagination from Sims 3's generations ^^

    astronaut: pretends to float, finds space rocks, and pretend stuffed animals are aliens. Moodlet: adventures

    Pirate: searches the house for buried treasure, fights imaginary bad guys, and uses his bed as a sailing ship. Moodlet: bold
    Stop me if you've heard this one: a sim walks into a bar....player moves bar out of the way.....sim walks on without walking into anything else.

    Cowboys- ride a horse on a stick, play with their lassos
    Aliens- funny walks, funny voices, funny faces, painting their faces green
    Monsters- stomp on their toys
    Firefighter- fight pretend fires

    I'd love to see a new "wild imagination" trait that kids and grownups could have- the kids would just mish mash costumes together and dress up as alien pirates, space cowboys, mad scientist/monster... etc.

    How about if someone stole cookies that (mom/grandma baked?) and that a kid with the police costume is trying to really find out who ate them
