Rocking chairs slowly increase fun while rocking.
Instead of having the "Sit" interaction like any other chair, rocking chairs have the "Rock" interaction. Sims can read a book while rocking or take a nap, and they can also hold babies or toddlers while rocking.
Rocking chairs give players a method to combat the fun drop from reading a skill book and an option to calm down toddlers.
Rocking chair interactions:
- Rock
- Nap (Fill up energy)
- Read a book while rocking in rocking chair
- Knit while rocking in rocking chair
- Watch TV while rocking in rocking chair
- Eat while rocking in rocking chair
- Hold toddler and rock the toddler to sleep
Kids should also be able to use the rocking chair!
Dazed: If a Sim uses the rocking chair for a long period of time, let’s say 5 hours, they‘ll get dazed.
Sims 4 Get Together: Sims with the Dance Machine trait can do their “disco nap“ (which is a more efficient nap) on the rocking chair as well. Same goes for Lazy Sims who can "Nap Lazily" instead of normal “Nap“
A special ghost haunting interaction:
If ghosts possess the rocking chair, it will rock on its own without a Sim sitting in it, like in the horror movies.
What are your ideas for the rocking chair?
Comments
Haha, this made me laugh Maybe they will even try standing on the chair...
Do anyone recall the recliners in TS1? Maybe they were in TS2 as well. I'd love to see the rest in rocking chair a bit more like it is planned, than the sims falling asleep in a regular armchair which looks very uncomfortable.
I expect there to be a dizzy moodlet from using it for hours, but I hope elders will be allowed to use it for longer with no negatives.
Do real life cats like to sleep in a rocking chair? Hm...
Cats will sleep anywhere they're comfortable. Including the padded seat of a rocking chair with a small tote bag holding a sock knitting kit that their person was gifted five years ago and still hadn't gotten around to making.... (Unfortunately any pictures of said kitty were lost in a phone exchange.)
I mean why have the rocking chair only available for toddler interactions?
Let's make Liberty and Justice For All a reality.

The ghost can interact with the rocking chair & frighten the living Sims with the hunted chair.

I'm also seconding that ghost idea. Very creepy!
Things that sims should be able to do in the rocking chair:
Knit (all ages depending on how young your dim can start the hobby)
Watch TV/Movies (child to elder)
Nap (child to elder?
Pet/Pamper/Call On Lap your sims cat or small dog (Child to elder)
Sooth toddler
Rock infants and toddlers
Read stories to toddlers
Breastfeed infants
Children should be able to calm emotions (since the only option atm is to wind down with classical music...)
I'm sure there are plenty more things to include but these are some of the ones that I would love to see...otherwise it's such a waste of potential
could they drink tea in the rocking chair...again, enhancing relaxation.
I think I will really enjoy this pack when it comes out.
