This is most of the social tasks but there are probably some I have missed, I will keep updating this post but if you have any that I haven’t listed please comment with the time it takes and I will add it to this list.
How do I visit neighbours? Check out this post!
My neighbours don’t have an item I need, what do I do?You could find a neighbour to add or skip the goal with LP.
How do I skip a social task with LP? If you cannot complete a task and you want to skip it, click on the task in your active tasks tab and then click on the orange button next to the task, it will ask if you want to skip the task. It will cost 10LP to skip a task:
I don’t want to add neighbours! Is there another way to earn social points? Yes, you can earn SP by completing Live Events too but these events aren’t always available, you can also use the social point flower but this will cost you 20LP. Completing social tasks means you can earn more SP although sometimes the rewards are only XP
My neighbour added something to their town for me to complete a social task but I can’t find it! Why? To see the latest version of your neighbours town they will need to Save to the Cloud and then you will be able to find the item and complete the task
I don’t have any neighbours! Can I complete tasks in Another Simtown, the default neighbourhood? Yes you can but it is really lacking in a lot of items so you won’t be able to complete every social task there, this post shows you what you can find in Another Simtown

Hi! First of all, I just want to let you know that I LOVE your blog! Thank you so much for everything!!
Also, I’ve also gotten the task to ”Make a preteen Trampoline-a-thon on a trampoline” (which lasts 5h30 on a 2-star trampoline and 6h on a 1-star trampoline), and also to ”Have a joy ride on a neighbour’s inflatable pool toy” (which lasts 10 minutes, but I don’t remember what the star rating of the item is).
Thanks again!
You’re very welcome!
Thank you, I knew I had missed some! I have added those to the post now 🙂
Happy to help a bit! And thanks again for your blog! 🙂
Hi again! I just got the task ”Grow zucchini in a neighbour’s garden” (which lasts 4 hours). Just thought you should know!
Thanks!
I am never able to complete the snowboarding at the ski park. My sim does the task but it will not show it as completed? What am I doing wrong? Thank you for helping.
You aren’t doing anything wrong it is probably a glitch where the game isn’t registering the goal as being complete, you may want to contact firemonkeys and let them know about this glitch so they can try and fix it for a future update.
Make a fancy coffee at a neighbor’s — 4 min 30 seconds.
Have tea: Traditional — 48 sec, Herbal — 1 min 36 sec, Pretentious Special — 4 min 48 sec.
Woo hoo a neighbor — 5 minutes.
Become an enemy with a neighbor. (The stage before nemesis.)
(Woodworking) Create magnum opus — 12 hours (and frankly the “create weird ornament” is so unfair, first you have to have woodworking at level 3 or 4 and then spend five hours over and over unless you throw LPs at it. Triple Pickle Flip I can live with, it’s only 10 minutes!)
You left out the section on teens.
I *think* I got send a teen to ice skate, but I’m not sure. — 12 hours if so.
I get teens and preteens confused so I’m not sure how the teen tasks differ from preteens.
(One more woodworking collectible to go! WOO HOO DOG HOUSE HERE I COME! :))
How do you play football tournament at a neighbor’s house?
Click on the foosball table and select play foosball tournament, I have added this picture to the post for you.
Hi, Could someone tell me which house has the gutair? I searched each house but didn’t see it anywhere!
Which house in Another Simtown? There isn’t a guitar in that town, you can find out what that town contains in this post: https://thegirlwhogames.blog/2016/04/30/the-sims-freeplay-visiting-another-sim-town/
Hi, I don’t have many neighbours. None of them have pools, and other things. that are required. Is the only way to move on with social tasks to just spend LPs?
Unfortunately yes, if you don’t have many neighbours it may be easier just to not complete social tasks, I know you won’t earn SP but it is going to cost you a fortune in LP!
Hi there! Just wondering, does the Sims freeplay still connect to Apple’s Game Centre? I used to have friends using that on my old account, but now all i can use is Facebook. I am twelve so im not allowed it and i don’t want to go to extremes to get friends.
LOVE YOUR BLOG,
🙂 thanks,
Skye
Yes it still connects to game center, there just isn’t a game center app anymore so it is harder to add friends than it used to be!
Is it normal for some of the social tasks to not give social points? The ones that take seconds to complete (make an espresso, chest bump a sim, use a fire pole, etc) don’t give me points, but the longer ones do.
Yes this is normal, they don’t like giving them away too easily!
Thank you for your quick answer! That solves the mystery I’ve been struggling with for a while now, haha.
You’re welcome!
My task is to clean a neighbors pool but my neighbor doesn’t have a pool so what do I do?
Unfortunately you cannot complete this if your neighbours don’t have the items you need, you can either add a neighbour who does, you can find a lot of players who need neighbours here: https://thegirlwhogames.blog/neighbour-requests/ or skip the task with LP, this post may help if you don’t have many LP: https://thegirlwhogames.blog/2015/01/14/the-sims-freeplay-how-do-i-have-so-many-lps/
I don’t get it. How do you play soccer in the park?
Is that what it says? Are you sure it isn’t practice soccer in a neighbours town? Your neighbour needs to have the soccer ball you can buy from the promotions r us store to complete this
Hi luv! I just got the ‘woohoo with a neighbor’ task! Is this a real thing?? Don’t I need to become partners with the neighbor sim before this can occur? Can Teen sims do this? All my sims are married, can one of them ‘cheat.’
You do need to become partners with a neighbour sim to complete this but you can use an adult or senior sim who is already married, you won’t be able to use a teen.
Hello, I’ve found a typo in one of the task examples it’s for the pretend when you put “Make prank call while in neighbor’s town” the typo is while is white.
Oops thanks for letting me know
Just had “Have a preteen waste hot water in a neighbor’s shower” (36 minutes)
Love this site, thank you for your hard work it really makes a difference.
Thanks, I have added that to the post and you’re very welcome!
are social tasks have an end? i did many of them but it didn’t end and sorry for my bad english
Social tasks don’t end, they are always there to complete
There is a task that is requesting to have a sim drink Hot Chocolate. I can’t find it anywhere, Can you help?
A preteen sim will get this option on a coffee machine.
