    I think there really might be an easter egg hunt? Kinda looks like it. And you can actually gift your own flowers & even set it as a holiday tradition for your custom-made holidays <3

    Also we can choose if holidays are actual vacation days off work/school. I'm sooooo excited about that too :love:

    Looks like it. Somewhere near the beginning there's a hollowed out log and a kid is searching inside it. Nearby there's also a painted egg.

    EGGsactly! I hope so, honestly.

    Alsoooo, love how this sim is tripping on the ice :lol:

    Yes! I posted a few days ago that I hoped they would slip and fall. :p

    Woah!! The calendar is amazing. You can gift flower arrangements, yessss! Will be so cute. And spoiled food! HA.
    The tradition list looks pretty long, I wonder what else is on there! Also glad there's more reward traits.

    Wonder if we can gift dog poo? :p I have so much in my sim's inventory for fertilizing plants.

    If you look at in the trailer you'll see that the sim falls when the wind start to blowing.

    I am glad that we can choose if it’s a day off work school however I wish they were separate caregories. I plan to use this to homeschool my sims kids in some saves but it would be nice if I could still have working adults as well. Or to simulate summer vacation. Still it’s doable to have the adults work from home and certainly better then having to cheat or use mods.

    I hope sims will have appropriate reactions to gifts like (ie you lose friendship with the sim you give poo to or you gain friendship for gifting a sim a computer or something.

    First off, the calendar looks even more awesome in the trailer. I also love how you can decide whether or not sims are out of school/off work for the holidays. That's good because my sims will not be getting Halloween off, haha. I also love how you can choose which traditions go with each holiday and from the video it looks like we will have lots to choose from.

    I wanted them to toggle the decoration theme drop down so bad. I'm really curious exactly how that will function.

    Yes it would have been nice to have the option to select one or both

    At the very least, I hope we can click the Go to Work button to force the adults to go.

    *Whoops, sorry Luth. I didn't realize what thread this was when I posted.

    Although this was to answer a question about a watching sports on TV tradition, I'm more hyped about the decoration info at the top.

    So the decoration box works the way I imagined, except it's to decorate the exterior rather than interior. Sounds like they will be automated if we choose 'Decoration Theme,' or customized further using the buy mode box.

    I had to watch the trailer multiple times, but I love how people here pick different things from it I hadn't even noticed. The calendar system seems great, I just wonder if it's the same calendar and time for all the households or can we celebrate winterfest in different households.

    Also, I really wanna know more about all the possible traditions. Love how multiple toddlers and parents can use the kiddie pool at the same time. And that scarecrow doesn't seem quite like normal sim... I wonder what it can do :sweat_smile:

    Can someone ask if couples can skate together like they did in 2 and 3? I didn’t see it in the trailer although I might have missed it

    Lol. Didn't even know we could collect it and use it for fertiliser.

    I wonder if decorating the house is just a fake kind of thing - you can see a sim mooching through a box of decorations before a load of stuff appears on the walls - wonder if that is instant and random or we still have to decorate it ourselves.
    I love the new toddler swimwear, seen while they are playing in the paddling pool.

    If you look at 0:17 in the trailer we can see that the toddlers can play in the snow!!

    I couldn't help but notice there are icons for events on the calendar that evoke Easter and Hallowe'en.

    But then nothing has been said about the activities specific to those holidays yet, like looking for eggs or go trick or treating. I wonder what we will be able to do to celebrate those events?
    At the very end there is a party that looks like it was thrown for Hallowe'en, and... the scarecrow is alive and walking! It could just be a costume but I think it might be one of the "special guests"!

    I'm pretty sure that's just a Halloween costume but I wish it was him for real because I LOVE THIS CHARACTER so much

    Not just a costume. The scarecrow can really come to life.
