'''''[[The Sims 4: Seasons]]''''' is the fifth [[expansion pack]] for ''[[The Sims 4]]''. It was announced on May 24, 2018 and released on June 22, 2018. The console version was released on November 13, 2018. It is a spiritual successor to ''[[The Sims 2: Seasons]]'' and ''[[The Sims 3: Seasons]]''. The expansion pack reintroduces [[Precipitation|weather]] and [[Weather (game mechanic)|seasons]], along with new features such as [[holiday]]s and a [[calendar]]. Various other features, such as [[temperature]]s, new [[career]]s and new [[skill]]s are also included.
'''[[Baby]]''' is the first [[life stage]] in ''[[The Sims]]'', ''[[The Sims 2]]'', ''[[The Sims 3]]'', and ''[[The Sims 4]]'' (excluding [[pregnancy]], in the case of the latter games).

In ''The Sims 2'' and onward, Sims can have babies by doing the "[[WooHoo#Try for baby|Try for Baby]]" interaction on a double bed or in any other form of [[WooHoo]] location.

Babies can also be [[Adoption|adopted]].
''The Sims 4: Seasons'' introduces weather and seasons as its primary core mechanics. The four seasons of spring, summer, fall and winter shape the entire lives of Sims, allowing for new activities, festivities and more. All [[world]]s also have their own unique weather patterns, varying from rain, cloudy, sunny and snowy.


Babies usually require basic forms of care from [[teen]]s and older such as changing diapers, bottle feeding (''The Sims 4'' also adds the ability for female Sims to breastfeed) and good amounts of socialization with other family members. If a baby is not tended by any Sims in the household, a [[social worker]] will usually come to take the baby away. Babies grow into [[toddler]]s in ''The Sims 2'', ''The Sims Stories'', ''The Sims 3'', ''The Sims 4'' and ''The Sims FreePlay'', while they grow into [[child]]ren in ''The Sims'' and ''The Sims Medieval.''
Alongside weather, seasons and temperatures, holidays are another big feature of this expansion pack. They are worldwide events that repeat each year, and each come with their own set of traditions which define the way the Sims celebrate the holiday. There are multiple pre-made holidays, and players are able to create their own or edit/delete the pre-made ones. The calendar, another new feature, includes the upcoming weather forecasts, days, birthdays and the four pre-made seasonal holidays alongside the ones created by the player. Players can add custom holidays, delete or edit pre-loaded ones, or manually replicate them so that they occur on a different date.

Baby is the first life stage in The Sims, The Sims 2, The Sims 3, and The Sims 4 (excluding pregnancy, in the case of the latter games). It is also present in The Sims Stories series, and The Sims Medieval, which are spin-offs of The Sims 2 and The Sims 3, respectively, and in The Sims FreePlay. There are no pre-made babies in The Sims series, although some pre-made Sims start out pregnant. Babies cannot be made in Create a Sim.

In The Sims, in order to have babies two Sims of opposite genders must interact romantically either by kissing or "playing in bed"[TS:LL] and then hope for the random chance of a dialogue asking "Should we have a baby?", to which the player can answer "Yes" or "No". In The Sims 2 and onward, Sims can have babies by doing the "Try for Baby" interaction on a double bed or in any other form of WooHoo location. Only female Sims can become pregnant through the "Try for Baby" interaction. Once a Sim has been pregnant for three days, they will give birth to one or more newborn babies. Babies can also be adopted.

Babies usually require basic forms of care from teens and older such as changing diapers, bottle feeding (The Sims 4 also adds the ability for female Sims to breastfeed) and good amounts of socialization with other family members. If a baby is not tended by any Sims in the household, a social worker will usually come to take the baby away. Babies grow into toddlers in The Sims 2, The Sims Stories, The Sims 3, The Sims 4 and The Sims FreePlay, while they grow into children in The Sims and The Sims Medieval.
