[[File:Skeleton_Closet.jpg|thumb|250px|Bonehilda emerging from her coffin.]]
'''[[Bonehilda]]''' is an [[NPC]] that was introduced in ''[[The Sims: Makin' Magic]]'', and later returned in ''[[The Sims 3: Supernatural]]'' and ''[[The Sims 4: Paranormal Stuff]]''. She can be summoned from either a special upright [[coffin]]{{Vgversion|TS:MM}}{{Vgversion|TS3:SN}} or by performing a [[Medium|seance]]{{Vgversion|TS4:PS}}.
 
She mainly functions as a [[maid]], with the ability to clean a Sim's house free of charge. However, depending on the game, she can also repair broken appliances, do [[laundry]], tend to a [[garden]], socialize, prepare meals, and care for children. As a walking [[skeleton]], any human maids who see her while they are working may freak out and quit their job, and house guests will generally be [[tense]] in her presence. In [[Haunted house residential|haunted houses]]{{Vgversion|TS4:PS}}, she is able to protect the residents by fighting off a vengeful spirit known as [[Temperance]].
 
Bonehilda will occasionally grab a drink from a nearby [[Bar (object)|bar]], [[sink]] or [[refrigerator]] when she has nothing else to do, which will humorously flow right through her and leave a puddle on the floor. She also seems to be a fan of the [[Grim Reaper]], and might stop to ask him for an autograph if he shows up{{Vgversion|TS:MM}}.
 
Removing her skeletal appearance using cheats or mods results in a Sim that resembles the Grim Reaper{{Vgversion|TS3:SN}}, or a light-skinned woman with long red hair and green eyes{{Vgversion|TS4:PS}}.

[[File:Baby_close_up.jpg|thumb|300px|link=Baby]]
'''[[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 [[gender]]s must interact romantically either by kissing or "playing in bed"{{Vgversion|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 "[[WooHoo#Try for baby|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 [[Adoption|adopted]].
 
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.''
