Line 1:
A '''sink''' is a plumbing object in [[The Sims (series)|''The Sims'' series]]. They are typically used to wash hands—which provides a slight [[hygiene]] boost—as well as dishes in the absence of a working [[dishwasher]]. Sims that cannot reach a working sink or dishwasher will throw the plate{{vgversion|TS2}}{{vgversion|TS3}} or the meal{{vgversion|TS4}} into the garbage.
 
Certain games and expansion packs include additional interactions, such as taking sponge baths, getting a glass of water, [[toothbrushing|brushing teeth]], or washing one's face. While these interactions are typically faster and quicker than using a [[shower]] or [[bathtub]], they restore less hygiene than a proper shower or bath.
Line 6:
 
==The Sims==
Sinks in ''The Sims'' are very simplistic compared to other games. Sims will typically wash their hands in a sink after messy activities, such as cleaning or using a [[toilet]], unless they are very messy. Sims will also use sinks to wash dishes. Unlike later games, Sims do not need to brush their teeth over a sink.

==The Sims 3==
Sinks function similarly to those in previous games. Sims, with the exception of [[Slob (The Sims 3)|slobs]], will wash their hands after messy activities, such as using the [[toilet]]. They are also used to wash dishes in lieu of a [[dishwasher]], and can be used for [[toothbrushing|brushing teeth]]. [[Neurotic]] Sims can check sinks to make sure they are off, which will provide a positive moodlet.

In ''[[The Sims 3: Generations|Generations]]'', [[child]]ren and [[teen]]s can [[Prank#The Sims 3|booby trap]] the sink to spray water at Sims who try to use it. The booby trap will not be activated if a neurotic Sim checks the sink, or if a Sim brushes their teeth over the sink, as neither of these activities involve turning the taps on.

==The Sims 4==
Sinks in ''The Sims 4'' retain most of the functions from previous games. Sims can use it to wash their hands, brush their teeth, and wash empty dishes. The player can also "wash" dishes by dragging them into the sink. Sims with the [[Clumsy (The Sims 4)|clumsy]] trait may drop dishes while washing them in a sink.
