==Bunny Egg Hunt==
Time-limited challenges were introduced through a free update in March 2015. The Egg Hunt ran through the month of April. This month, Sims might find some interesting decorative eggs scattered around the world. There were 10 different designs in all, and they were part of a new collection that was only available for a few weeks. Successfully collecting them all would unlock a giant stuffed bunny.<ref>https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/the-sims-4/news/game-update-march-2015</ref> The Bunny Egg Hunt returned the following year, allowing players to collect decorative eggs once again.
On March 2015, an update added the Bunny Egg Hunt. This challenge added in special decorative easter eggs Sims can find like any other collectable and collect up to 12 different kinds, when a Sims household collects all 12 eggs they will unlock a new object the "Bun Bun the Bunny".
 
==#TeamTrick vs. #TeamTreat==
The Bunny Egg Hunt returned again the next year on March 2016 allowing Sims to once again collect decorative eggs.
The Trick or Treat challenge started on October 23 and ran through October 31, 2015. Continuing the theme of the previously released stuff pack ''[[The Sims 4: Spooky Stuff]]'', two new interactions (Trick and Treat) were temporarily available. The player then needed to choose between them to help unlock different items in the game. #TeamTrick had a demonic door, a skeletal fish in a spooky bowl, and an interactive chest; and #TeamTreat had a lion door, a candy fish in a delicious bowl, and a usable chest of its own. Every three days, the two sides were trying to make their team's version of the item the winning one. In the end, only one of each version would make it into the game. However, eventually everyone would get the items.<ref>https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/the-sims-4/news/trick-treat-challenge</ref>
 
==Trick or Treat Interactions==
On September 2015, in theme of the recent stuff pack [[The Sims 4: Spooky Stuff|''The Sims 4: Spooky Stuff'']], two interactions were unlocked for a week in real time, Trick and Treat, these interactions allowed Sims to give other Sims treats and sweets or Trick them by scaring them.

==Triple Boost Week==
For a week in late August 2016, Sims could gain Skills at three times the usual rate, or gain a triple job performance boost for base game [[career]]s. All they'd need to do is head over to [[Jasmine Holiday]] (or call her on the phone) to get granted with seven in-game days of [[skill]] or career Boosts. Sims could do it as many times as the player wanted during that period, but Sims would only be able to have one at a time, though – asking for a skill boost when the Sims already has a career boost would cancel the other one.<ref>https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/the-sims-4/news/boost-week-skills-careers</ref>
On August 2016<ref>https://www.thesims.com/en_GB/news/boost-week-skills-careers</ref>, Jasmine Holiday returned once again, if a Sim talks to her they will be granted a boost in their [[Career|careers]] and [[Skill|skills]] three times more than usual for seven Sim-days.
 
==Day of the Dead Event==
[[File:Day of the Dead UI.png|200px|right|Once the event is activated, a UI tab pops up on the top left of the screen]] The Day of the Dead Challenge lasted for a month from October 4, 2016, to November 4. [[Jasmine Holiday]] returns and will provide the player with information about the event and the Sugar Skull Display Case. From there, the player's Sim can head out and meet Day of the Dead Celebrators in their neighborhood and use the "Ask for Sugar Skull" interaction. When a Sim has collected all of the ones available, a final [[sugar skull]] will be unlocked for completing the collection. Once a Sim has filled up their display case with all 10 sugar skulls, the case unlocks a new interaction called "Honor the Dead". This gives the Sim a moodlet that unlocks new interactions with the [[Grim Reaper]], increases their relationship gain with him and also gives a high chance of success when pleading for another Sim's life.<ref>https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/the-sims-4/news/sims-4-day-dead-challenge</ref>
 
==PlantSim Challenge==
[[File:Plantsim Challenge Panel.png|200px|right]]The PlantSim Challenge lasted from April 4th until May 4th 2017. PlantSims are added as a temporary moodlet Sims can get after eating a Forbidden Fruit.
 
PlantSims can be made by a Sim eating a Forbidden Fruit from going into the Mystical Magic Bean Portal Tree, or growing the seed to make more Forbidden Fruits. PlantSims have a water need replacing the bladder and the hunger need's description is changed to talk about sunlight. PlantSimism is a temporary [[life state]] that lasts 5 days and can be reapplied by eating more Forbidden Fruits. PlantSims have special moodlets for being out in the sun and being in water which boosts their happiness.

==Positivity Challenge==
The Positivity Challenge encourages your Sim to perform kind, generous, and sweet tasks for other Sims. Being friendly to others, performing helpful deeds for neighbors, or anything that spreads positive energy will unlock certain gifts. Plus, Sims will make their (game) world a better place. From November 13 to December 4, 2018, Sims can opt-in to this Aspiration.<ref>https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/the-sims-4/news/millie-bobby-brown-challenge</ref>
 
When a Sim calls the Event Coordinator from the social tab, [[Millie Bobby Brown]] will show up and the Sim can then accept the Positivity Challenge. The Sim will then receive the Box of Kindness. Each time the Sim completes an objective, the Box of Kindness will gift the Sim with a decorative reward – viewing the reward, such as a motivational poster, will give Sims a random positive moodlet or skill buff. Once a Sim has finished all the objectives, they'll get a special reward trait. Sims will also be able to challenge other Sims to be kind.
