FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS QUEST
please read before asking
I have missed this quest! Why can’t I start it yet?
You cannot miss main quests they have to be completed in order. You need to complete all previous quests (list can be found here) and reach level 8 before you can start this quest
Can I complete this quest even though I have passed level 8?
Yes, you just need to complete all previous quests then this quest will start automatically
I can’t place the magazines in my house, why?
You need to put them on a table or counter, you cannot place them on the floor
My sims won’t read the magazine, help!
Do blue footprints appear? Read the answer below
Why do blue footprints appear when I try to use an item?
Blue footprints appear when your sim cannot access an item you want them to use, you need to either rotate the item or move an item that has been placed in front of it so they can use it
I can’t afford the children’s store, how can I earn more simoleons?
This post may help
Can I build the children’s store early?
No, you cannot build the children’s store until you get the goal in this quest
How many babies can a couple have?
They can have 2 children as only 4 sims can live in a house at one time
How do babies go to the toilet?
They will go in their diaper when they are ready, then you can change their diaper to increase their hygiene
What do I get if I complete this quest in the time limit?
The baby decoration pack
What happens if I don’t complete in the time limit, can I still finish this quest?
Yes you have to finish it to be able to add babies to your town before you can move onto the next quest
I didn’t complete in the time limit, can I restart the quest?
No, you cannot redo quests
Can I still get the prize if I don’t complete in the time limit?
No, the only way to get the limited time prizes is by completing the quest in the time limit
I don’t like this quest! Can I just skip it?
No, you have to complete this quest before you can move onto the next one
Some times are slightly different on my game, why is this?
Times may vary depending on the star rating of the item you are using, as the higher star rating an item has the quicker you will complete a goal
Some times are really off/ different goals show for me, why is this?
This will be because the quest has been updated recently, I try my best to keep these posts up to date but it is difficult as I cannot redo every quest each time the game is updated. If you notice any changes please let me know so I can update the post
The next quest is the Ocean View Estate which unlocks the premium residences so you can build bigger houses!

You need to place them on a table, you can’t put them on the floor

Yes it costs 3LPs usually but it may cost you simoleons.

wedding bundle is in the costume and swim store, you need to build it to access them.

Can u make ur sim deep sleep before the quest tells u to do so?
Yes
Do you reply to all your comments? 🙂
I do my best to reply to all of them
I love the new layout! So are these blog posts getting you paid or is it just a hobby?
Thanks! It’s just a hobby
Can you add a baby if you’ve reached the town sim limit already, or should I level up? (Currently on burger step of bread winner quest- level 9)
No you can’t, you need to level up first
Cool I just started and I can’t wate omg baby are so cute lol 😄
I’m on level 16. The task is to expand or create a room. When I do this, the task doesn’t say finished. I’ve built 2 rooms, and nothing yet. Need help please.
Like it says in the post create a room doesn’t work, you need to expand a room.
i want to add a baby but its showing married couple sims have to stay in youe house…

You need to add the baby to the house where your married couple lives
I completely the quest in time but how do I collect the prizes
The post tells you where you can find them,
flooring is in the floor section of the house store
wallpaper is in the walls section of the house store
the mobile is in the baby section of the buy mode
You don’t get them for free by the way, you have to buy them
I got the magazines but it does not have the option to read better farms and cradles, how do I get the option to?
Are you on that goal yet?
No. I’m close though
I just started the quest
You can’t start this task until it tells you to do it
How do I collect free decoration pack I keep getting a notice it is about to expire
You need to complete the quest in time, once you have done the last goal the items will appear in the store for you to buy.
Ghow do read the better farms and… Magazine
Buy a stack of magazines from the living room section, place in house and then your sim can read it
Hi weightlessmagic just want to ask i want to move in another house my married couple sims and they have a baby..my question is, is the baby automAtically move in also…hoping for your immediate respons thank you
Yes the baby should move too
My baby is in process, do i get to choose a boy or a girl? Or is it at random like in real life?
You can choose
Alright , since they added floors to the game, can we have more kids because of this?
No, 4 sims living in one house is still the limit
Hello ! Around level 31, I adopted a toddler for £2.99. My sim was single at the time but has since married and changed their surname. The child hasn’t changed their surname, but that isn’t the problem ! My problem is that whereas the parent and his wife have moved house, his child has been left behind at his original home ! How do I relocate my child sim with his adoptive father ? Or do I just have to leave him where he is and let him grow up with Access Visits by his dad ?!
I have since advanced to level 33 and my toddler is now a pre-teen
That is a strange glitch, I’m not sure how to fix this issue, they may just have to live in different houses with access to his dad, sorry!
Hi, I am on the two and a half sims quest, and have just started building the children’s store,
I have 1 day and 11 hours left, do you think I will complete it in time?
It depends how long the childrens store it taking you to build
I’m trying to build the children’s store but it keeps telling me I can’t because Sorcerous Supplies is already under construction…. I have nothing understanding construction, do you know how to fix this problem?
So you aren’t building the sorcerous supplies? Strange, I don’t know how to fix this problem as this seems to be a technical issue.
I have the same problem
I have the same problem
I have a problem I go to get my sim to read the magazine but they won’t read it
Do blue footprints appear? They need to be able to access the magazines to read them, so move them so nothing is in the way
That’s what was wrong thanks sooooo much
You’re welcome!

I’m on level 18, but I haven’t done the baby quest yet…is it too late? Btw I already have 2 couples married already if that helps! I just really want sim baby all ready😞
No it isn’t too late, you are probably just on a previous quest, you need to complete quests in order.
My Sims refuse to read the better farms and cradles magazine help!!
They probably can’t access it, put it on a table and don’t put anything around it so they can get to it to read it
I am on level 13 and have completed the two and a half sims quest. I have a baby but when i want to age her it says that i need to complete the two and a half sims quest. I dont know what to do. Please help!
You need to complete the quest for toddlers to age a baby
how do you enter the bread winner quest?
You have to complete previous quests before you can start the bread winner quest.
I made my baby but the crib was empty, the baby was on the floor and I didn’t put him there. It says I can 2 baby’s in each household but it says I have too many Sims living in the house but its my neighbor Sim visiting. The baby’s on the floor and he is stuck. Please help!!
this is a glitch, there isn’t a lot you can do really, sorry!
How to I make my baby’s bathroom level go up? I try to get all my sims inspired so they earn more XP, but even if everything else is high up, the baby doesn’t get inspired if their bathroom level is up. Please help!!!!
They will go in their diaper when they are ready, you can’t do anything to speed it up, then you will need to change their diaper to increase their hygiene
Can you get twins, or triplets? If so, how?
You can’t really, you can just buy 2 cribs at once, make the babies at once, then age them at the same time, you definitely can’t have triplets though as you can only have 4 sims living in one house at one time
I completed the bread winner quest, but it is still showing as if i haven’t. My sim can cook bacon and eggs, but the read the fronier vittles is still in my quest que, help? Trying to have a baby sim.
Have you tried reading it again?

I was nice to a sim, I expanded the room and New carpet and wallpaper. Now I try to get a stack of magazines and it’s not letting me. Any idea why?
you need to place them on a table
Please help wheightlessmagic I am on the two and a half Sims quest and I created a room but I read your blog and it said that I had to expand it so that baby room is now the parents room anyway I expanded and moved things around and I painted the wall and the floor has carpet and I bought a magazine stack and I don’t have the option to read the more farms and cradles magazine I put it on them table they will read the optimal magazines but I don’t have the option to read the more farms and cradles magazine please help
I don’t know why you don’t have that option, it should appear once you are on that goal
You might need to contact EA to see if they can sort out the problem for you.
Hi I’m on the quest of two n a half sines but keeps saying ” you can’t start building children’s store because sorcerous supplies is already under construction in sim town ” x I’ve tried all stores but it says the same x any advice
So the sorcerous supplies store isn’t under construction?
Have you got the latest update? If not, try updating and see if this has fixed the issue
if not you may need to contact EA about the problem
I am on the the two and a half Sims quest and I used to play this game a year ago on my tablet 💻,however before if you remember you could get a cot as soon as you started the game 🎮 so you could get it over with and not have to think about LP,s now you aren,t even aloud to be romantic before the love Is in the air quest ( is this because of the update???)
yes, this is because of many updates, we haven’t been able to go straight into having a baby when we start the game for ages now
You know when you are waiting for the babies to come on Sims the (storke en route) process do the parents have to be there as I am quite low on simoleons and I need some money coming in???
no they don’t need to be, they can leave babies on their own now
Once a baby 👶 becomes a toddler can you change their hair colour because i accidently touched (randomize) so I don’t know what colour hair she has ( Ella-Jade) my baby Sims name so what’s the difference between brown and blonde hair on the Sims freeplay for babies
Yes you can
How
click on the wardrobe and then you can change their hair and clothes.
do you have to complete all the tasks/quest you have to get this quest?
yes or you can’t move on
If you don’t pass the quest can you still get the prize
How much does the children’s store cost
Time varies depending on how many buildings you have built already
The time limit is just to get the prize, you have to complete the quest before you can move on to the next, you can’t get the prize if you don’t complete in time.
