Quick question - Can toddlers be inspired by any other item(s) besides the "last unicorn" or lightning? :?:

There is a recipe that can only be cooked at the restaurant, that inspires sims as soon, as they start to eat. You get 3 plates.

is there any other quicker way of getting some sleep for the baby? Before baby update, I usually use the 4 hour sleep for baby. Since I started the xylophone hobby, no sleep at all. Just use the other functions to keep the baby inspired. I finally got to finish the hobby but at the cost of several lps, probably the most I use for a hobby. And all this for a silly jumper, which gives you 1 choice of of action for few seconds only. But it's cute. I tried the 10 minutes Calming Baby to Sleep but it does not seems to fill up the Sleep need.

With 12 hours remaining and considering my work schedule, I have to spend almost 100 LP to get the last 4 paintings...

Me too ! I played non-stop but I could not complete the collection in time

I spent about 75 LP. I hate the grinding grid fillers. Constant work that never advances and then lucky rolls within the last two hours. I think the other reason I hate the grid filling is that it's not creative or fun. Ooh, let's fill yet ANOTHER grid. I haven't done that before! I didn't even really want the item and I've cut back on how often I play by setting the SIms at 24 hour hobby times to keep them inspired because grid filling is boring. C'mon Firemonkeys, give us something outside of the 12 boxes (or however many, depending on the hobby.)

I too spent a lot of LP and finished today. I don't know exactly how much bust it was close to 100 and I finished it with 17 minutes to go :o
I've not had a chance to play much lately and missed the superhero outfits which I would be pretty mad about usually. In the grand scheme of things I will survive. They'll come back.....most things do :)

You're welcome :)
For sure it has been mentioned several times after the Let's Eat update, but I have to admit, I didn't pay attention on this meal before the Baby Steps.

I didn't pay attention either. I think it's because it cost LPs and I tend to hoard those until I really need them. But since learning this, I immediately started cooking it at the restaurant and now have three piles of plates lined up on the counter just waiting to be used. Sent one of my toddlers (alone) to the restaurant to "grab a plate". He grabbed a plate, went to sit down and eat. He took one bite and was instantly inspired so I canceled the action and sent my newly inspired toddler home to finish painting! This is an awesome find for me as I do not have the rainbow unicorns to inspire the toddlers in my game!
