  2. So I’ve melted the candy canes, and when I send my Sim to accuse Wumples, he won’t do it. The feet icon comes above his head like something is blocking the way. Is anyone else having this problem?

    I should probably also mention that I had 4 Sims melting the candy canes trying to be proactive thinking I would have to melt them all, but when I noticed my Sim not being able to accuse Wumples, I made the other Sims stop and sent them away. And my Sim is still unable to accuse Wumples. Going to power my phone off and back on again to see if this helps, but was wondering if anyone else had this happen?

    • I’m on Day 7 and I can’t talk to Santa through the chimney because 2 elves are standing in front of it! Any help !?

      • Go back home and then return to the workshop, hopefully that will move the elves, or you can try pondering in the chair infront of the fireplace, if neither of these things work then there is nothing else I can suggest apart from waiting for the elves to move.

  3. i just want to make sure: the daily prizes, such as the nutcracker, the windows, etc. if you don’t complete them before the next set of goals is the prize still available? or is the 12 days the only time limit?

    i love love love love love your blog btw! very helpful.😊

  4. ‘Activate self destruct’ how do I do this? My quest log now says: New goals begin in 10 hrs 14 mins, although I didn’t do the last step and didn’t get the reward either.

  7. OMG thank you solo much I was so stuck on the thinker man thing and I was searching every site to find help

    You are so helpful and I know I can rely on you now

  9. I’m having trouble taking a picture of the Fire Station. I did took a picture using the camera button there but nothing’s happening. Do you have any ideas why? 😦

  10. Thanks for all this. I love you blog. It helps me know when I can have sims doing other things and if I need to pause on a quest and save money for the next one of I really want the prize.

  11. It says if I don’t finish the tasks in one day I can try finishing it the next day. So we have 9 AM till when?

    • You have until the 12 day limit is up to finish the goals, you can take as long as you like on each day but you need to complete them all in that time limit to get the bear

  13. Him i just started the Christmas quest. The very first goal is to splash a sims face in a sink. I dont have that option with the sinks. Its just wash hands and clean under fingernails. :/ I am stumped!!

  14. I’m having trouble with day 7 where I need to speak to Santa stuck in the chimney but the elves are blocking me from the fireplace so I can’t get near him. I’ve tried talking to the elves to move them but that doesn’t work.

    • Go back home and then return to the workshop, hopefully that will move the elf, or you can try pondering in the chair infront of the fireplace, if neither of these things work then there is nothing else I can suggest apart from waiting for the elf to move.

  15. I collected soil at 2 different houses, completed the quest for one, and when I had to find the fridge light to give to the elf, I went back to the house that was also collecting the soil, it completed the quest for me. I’m not sure if it was glitched or something….

  16. Weightlessmagic can I ask you a question? Ok!!!! It is !!! What do you do when you finish all missions!!!
    P.S: I like your blog!!! It’s very helpful 😊😄…..Ups…..this is a question not from the Christmas quest!!!
    Happy Christmas to you and to everyone!!! 😃😀🎄🎁🎈🌹…….☺️

  17. I’m trying to talk to Santa via the fireplace but there is an elf in the way, how do I get the elf to move?

    • Go back home and then return to the workshop, hopefully that will move the elf, or you can try pondering in the chair infront of the fireplace, if neither of these things work then there is nothing else I can suggest apart from waiting for the elf to move.

  18. Im in 7th day and stuck in the mission “talk to santa via the fireplace” because the elf blocked the chimney. How to move the elf from the chimney? Please help me, thankyou 🙂

    • Go back home and then return to the workshop, hopefully that will move the elf, , or you can try pondering in the chair infront of the fireplace, if neither of these things work then there is nothing else I can suggest apart from waiting for the elf to move.

  20. Any ideas on how to get the elves to step away from the fireplace so that I can talk to Santa? My Sim refuses to talk to Santa because she can’t get close enough, but the elves are standing directly in front of the fireplace and there isn’t an option to get them to move!!

    • Go back home and then return to the workshop, hopefully that will move the elf, or you can try pondering in the chair infront of the fireplace, if neither of these things work then there is nothing else I can suggest apart from waiting for the elf to move.

      • Tried all of that! 😢 honestly this is the first time I’ve thought the Sims sucks! I’ve tried every suggestion I can find on every help blog- and nothing is working! I’ve waited for nearly 24 hours for it to move already- and I’m getting behind in the tasks 😕

        Thanks for trying to help!

  22. Okay, so I’ve been trying to take a picture of the fire station but everytime I do it doesn’t do anything! Please help 😦

  23. Have you tried to complete the next quest. Getting santa out of the chimney yet? I’m stuck at trying to talk to santa action!

    • The talk to him via the fireplace task? There may be an elf in the way, go back home and then return to the workshop, hopefully that will move the elf, or you can try pondering in the chair infront of the fireplace, if neither of these things work then there is nothing else I can suggest apart from waiting for the elf to move.

  24. Your blog helps a lot!!!! Thanks a ton!
    I will complete the last task for day 6 self destruct in an hour or so. What will I di after that? Do the new tasks come automatically, or will I have to wait for day 7?? ^_^ :* 😉 😀

  25. I’m doing the Day 6 goals right now, and I got stuck at the Take a photo of the fire station goal.

    I’ve taken several photos already but nothing is happening… once I take the photo, I just press back.. that’s it, right? Am I supposed to do anything else?

  27. So they are giving us all the old Christmas gifts from last years update? I’m confused… Are there new things mixed in?

    I’m at least hoping we get the wallpapers again as I expanded my Christmas house…

    And any word when the “presents” should be arriving at our mailbox?

    • Yes they appear to be all the same as last year- *yawn!*
      But luckily wallpaper was unlocked by completing todays tasks!
      The presents only appeared the days before the quest unlocked

  50. If any of you lot are struggling to do it in the time limits or cant fit in i suggest getting 10 ovens and 10 toasters ( in 1 house)and get 10 sims to make cheese on toast ( you only need 1 leve 6 sim in cooking for them all to be able to get all the gilded cooking things ) and after you get all of them once you get 5lps per go so you can quickly and easily get lps to speed the quest up
