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
This quest unlocks the finger painting hobby, does the time limit start straight away once I have completed this quest?
Yes, the time limit for the hobby starts straight away once this quest is complete, you can click no when the hobby pop up appears but this does not stop the timer going down

How long are the finger painting hobby actions? Is it any better than musical baby hobby? And I guess there still is 7 days time limit
finger painting is 3 hours 30 minutes with a 7 day limit
Are the costumes free?
yes
is it just me, or is this one is hard to complete in the time frame??
Its fairly difficult but they don’t like making them easy! If they are too easy they make the tasks longer in the next update!
Okay so I just had a birthday for one of my sims to make her a toddler so that I can do this quest. Quick question: can adults interact with the superhero toddler in this quest? It would be cute for the adults to cuddle him.
No an adult can’t, only the toddler knows he is there
Help! I only have two days left and I just spent all 3 of mylp to rush my toddler watching cartoons but the adult is still watching them so now I had to start her watching them all over again! What will I do??!!
it should complete once the adult finishes watching
Cool!

Thanks for this! Your blog has always helped me ahead of time!
you’re welcome!
Do we have to already have a horse at the stables for this toddler quest or does one just appear when needed?
Yes you need a horse at the stables
Thanks, I have stables, but didnt want to deal with a horse, so I deleted it. I guess I better get another one. This one has a cute prize at the end.
Hi, do you have any pictures of the toddlers in the outfits? If you do, could you maybe post them somewhere? If not, that’s fine! Have a good day.
I have just added them to the post
Hi, I was just confused on what happened in my game, I was only in level 32 when I reached the maximum reward limit, my town is now worth $463,814,011. My town was only $2,000,000+ and turned to that high amount when I built the competition center. I dunno what just happened, but Im glad because I now receive $11,000+ in my daily reward. 😀
nice glitch!
Hiiii! I am having issues with babies. So I decided to add a baby to my town which normally takes 24 hours to arrive. But it tells me that it will arrive in 312 hours. Is this a glitch or is it normal? Please help
It sounds to me like you have cheated and messed up your game, there isn’t much you can do, the only thing that will fix it is restarting the whole game
I’ve reached the part of the quest where I’m supposed to return the toddler to the stables, the problem now is that I haven’t completed the quest “Need for Steed”, therefore I haven’t built the stables and see no way how to continue. Am I stuck there until the game asks me to start the Need for Steed quest? I’m at level 41 and it has been only in the last couple of months that the game has been pushing me to start the old quests (as apparently they’ve only recently been included in the Windows Phone version). Is there any alternative way to go to the Stables without building them?
I don’t really know how you managed to start this quest without having the stables already built as you have to find the superhero toddler at the stables to start it
I can’t seem to find a chalkboard to complete the quest. I have not built the childrens store, could that be why? Under the toddler tab of the home store the only options are swing set, rocking horse, and toddler playhouse.
Did you not build the children’s store in the babies quest?
If not you may need to contact EA, sorry!
I’ve started this quest and decided I’m not interested in completing it.. How do I stop the superhero todler from running around my house and following the toddlers? Or do I have to wait until the quest has ran out of time?
He is going to stay there until you complete the quest
Your posts are so helpful. I always write the quests down in my notebook and that way I know just how much time is going to be needed to finish them. Thank you
I’m glad they help! You’re welcome
Great job on this quest! I’m almost finished!
I just realized, on another note, that the karate and ballet hobbies don’t show up in the hobby screen any longer! You can still practice them though. I wonder if preteens are going to get a quest next?!
Thanks!
They haven’t shown up on the hobby screen for a while now, thats because you don’t earn collectibles each time you complete it, you just get prizes when you level up for the first time
That would be good, or just making those hobbies so you get collectibles would be better than nothing!
How to add todler.?
you need to age a baby using a birthday cake
Thank you so much for these posts! They help a lot and I would never be able to finish the quests in the time limit if they weren’t here 😊
you’re welcome!
I have purchased the finger painting easel fro promotion store, where do I find it now?? Please help time is running out 😕
it is in the hobby section of the inventory
I noticed that the superhero outfits speed your toddlers up! It’s great, because usually they walk really slow, and now their just running! It’s really cool.
I can’t find the black board in the toddler section
you may need to contact EA then, I don’t know why you don’t have it, sorry!
I know your completeing the finger painting hobby but what do you need to start ?
you need to buy the finger painting easel from promotions r us and then to place it in your house you need to find it in the hobby section of your inventory
I cannot send a todder to home, I back to the house and call her but she is back with nothing – Superultra not follow her
try sending the toddler to a different house
Finally a quest with enough time to finish it without using LP’s 🙂
The prize is cool! It seems to me that when my toddler is using it, he runs faster, have you noticed that?
Thanks for your uploads 🙂 always useful.
Hi! Thanks for your great blog – it’s the first place I go when a new quest appears. I have a problem with the game immediately starting the next quest as soon as I finish a quest, without me selecting to start it. If I need LP or simoleons for the next quest, there’s no time to save up! Can you help please? 😬😀
You’re welcome!
Unfortunately that is just how the game works, once you reach the level for that quest unlocking it will start as soon as you complete the previous quest, whether you want it to or not
The outfits seem to give the toddlers super speed. That’s a really good reason to complete the quest in time.
Do you know yet how to buy the paintings off the easel? Just finished my first painting and clicked past the pop up about buying them without seeing how to do it. The only option I had was to start a new painting.
Yes, you need to get an adult sim to click on the easel and select store in inventory, then you can find the painting in the decorations section of your inventory
Hi I started the quest without having a stable and now I can’t complete any other quest because I have to finish this one first .. The quest was timed so it’s over ,but it’s still saying I have to complete it before I get the mall ..can you please help I’m on level 31 and don’t want to start over . Is there any other way to get rid of this quest ,or do I have to wait for the next update?
I don’t understand how you can start this quest without having the stables as you have to talk to the superhero toddler at the stables to start this quest?
Geez I am having a hard time completing some of these quests… Can’t sit and play all day😩
I am to the point where I need to give a plate of cookies to the super hero but he is no where to be found. He should be following my toddler, right?
he should be, have you tried restarting your device? that might help
Help! I am stuck….I can’t feed my toddler a cookie! I have the cabinet but it won’t let me click on it
Are you definitely using an adult sim to do this task?
I don’t have a blackboard in my toddler section? I just have a swing set?
you may need to contact EA then, I don’t know why you don’t have it, sorry!
i am stuck on the last task, to share the adventure with an adult in the bath. i will select the option and then come back when it’s finished, and then the adult will get up from the bath and walk away and the toddler will stay in the bath for the same amount of time again. when that time is up, the toddler gets out of the bath but the task doesn’t finish. do you know why this might be? thanks, and by the way i love your blog it’s really helpful xxx
there is a glitch sometimes when you bathe a toddler, the adult leaves and the toddler starts again, all you can do is redo the task, sorry!
Thanks, I’m glad it helps!
what’s your Game Center name ? I want you to be my neighbor on sims ! hahaha
sorry my game center account is full so I cannot add anyone else
Hm, no toddler in the stable. Could this be because there are several recent quests I have not completed?
have you updated your game recently?
“share adventures”. Sims share my adventures do not have this option? Help!
you need to select the option on a bath.
Hi! I need your help! My toddler and his dad were sharing their adventures, so I left them doing that and when I came back to the game 3 hours later. They just started again! Please help this has happened to me before when I made my sim deep sleep
There isn’t much I can do unfortunately, you will just have to start it again
I can’t find the classic wall cabinet to give cookies to my toddler it just doesn’t exist!
there is a picture of it in the post, its in the counters section of buy mode.
I have the same issue of not having my stable built. When you initially start the quest it sends you straight to the stables so that’s how we start it but can’t get back to it since my toddler was busy when I initially went to the stables. Do I have to wait for the stables to be built?
you are going to need to contact EA about that because you shouldn’t have been able to start the quest without the stables, the need for steed quest has to be done first.
Am I not able to practice the horse tricks while the toddler is in the stables for this quest?
if you only have one horse then no because the toddler needs to interact with it,if you have more than one horse then you can still do that hobby
Hi I’m in the same boat as Monty. I started the quest without building the stable. When I clicked on start quest it brought me to a stable to meet the super toddler but when I went to my house to get my toddler I couldn’t call them back to the stable because it said I havent completed the need for steed quest. I’m stuck now and I don’t know what to do in order to complete this quest.
you are going to need to contact EA about that because you shouldn’t have been able to start the quest without the stables, the need for steed quest has to be done first.
When I started the quest it took my toddler to a stable even though I don’t have one. Now I can’t return to the stable because I haven’t built it. I don’t have a stable because I have no intention of finishing Life Dreams and Legacies. How can I finish or cancel
this quest?

Have you tried pretty little planters quest?
https://thegirlwhogames.wordpress.com/2015/09/07/the-sims-freeplay-pretty-little-planters-quest/
I was wondering if the screenshots are yours???
Yes, all the screenshots are mine
I really like the house so I was wondering if you can buy the house or did you make it yourself. 😃
this house is the teen mansion: https://thegirlwhogames.wordpress.com/2014/11/10/the-sims-freeplay-sim-sign-and-teen-mansion/ this post explains how you get it
It sucks I ran out of LPs and I have just less than a day left to complete the quests. I just started school again so it’s been hard to keep up with the quest. I literally have just the last two quests and it sucks. Ugh so close.
this post may help you earn LPs for future quests: https://thegirlwhogames.wordpress.com/2015/01/14/the-sims-freeplay-how-do-i-have-so-many-lps/
Is there any thing that I can do early in the quest
no, it would say next to it (can be started early) if you can
Thanks
I barely completed this quest on time. And by barely I mean barely. I skipped last task with only around 30 seconds remaining until time is over and I lose. All because of a glitch!
I set my toddler for sharing adventures in bath for the night. In the morning the bathing was supposed to be complete. However my adult finished bathing toddler but toddler himself was only beginning. They were supposed to finish together! I had only less than 30 mins left and quickly with all my sims that weren’t already involved in hobby/life dream completing started cooking. I had 4 sims and already had 5 LPs so I just needed to complete the hobby once. I hurried as fast as I could and luckilly got the last piece with less than minute remaining. I went home where toddler was bathing and he stopped bathing but the quest wasn’t complete. I quickly set him up bathing, sacrificed 10 LPs and completed it in time! I had to use all my LPs because of this glitch…
Is the quest possible in the time limit without lp?
yes it is
How do I go back to the stable. I started the mission but I left the stable without greeting first.
you shouldn’t have been able to start the quest without having the stables already, you probably will need to contact EA to see what they suggest.
seems like im not able to finish this mission on time 😦
is that worth it to spend my LP to finish this?
depends if you want the costumes or not?
Is it possible to stat parts of this quest early? If you’ve already answered this , sorry I didn’t see it!
Thank you!
no its not, if you can it will say ‘can be started early’ next to the task
