[[File:Arts and Crafts 3.png|left]]'''Toy Making''' was introduced in ''[[The Sims 2: Open for Business|Open for Business]]'', allowing players to run [[toy]] stores and giving a wider range of [[fun]] objects. These are usually for [[child]]ren and [[toddler]]s, though some can be used by older Sims. When a Sim starts making a toy, the player can customize its appearance; there are several choices for each toy. Gaining a badge level allows a Sim to make one or two new types of toys. High [[mechanical]] skills help with this badge, and [[creativity (skill)|creativity]] can also be helpful.
A toy making station, [http://store.thesims3.com/productDetail.html?productId=OFB-SIM3:69433 The Titanic Toy Machine], is featured in ''[[The Sims 3 Store]]'', as part of the additional set from purchasing [[Midnight Hollow]].

'''Toys Available''': Sir Bricks-a-Lot
====Sir Bricks-a-Lot====
[[File:TS2BrickToy.png|thumb|right|Sir Bricks-a-Lot.]]
Pet Bricks are the simplest toys. There's no risk of failure in making them, but they're also cheap to sell and don't do much. Sims can interact with the bricks, teaching them tricks and having them perform tricks for other Sims, who, depending on personality, will either play along or laugh.

'''New Toys Available''': Little Heroes Fire Truck, Clown-in-a-Box
{{clr}}
====Little Heroes Fire Truck====
[[File:LittleHeroesFireTruck.png|thumb|right|Little Heroes Fire Truck.]]
The Little Heroes Fire Truck is a simple toy that raises Fun. The only option Sims have is to play with it. It has no evil version.

====Clown-in-a-Box====
[[File:Melody Tinker-Fear.jpg|thumb|right|[[Melody Tinker]] gets scared by an evil Clown-in-a-Box.]]
A Clown-in-a-Box is a jack-in-the-box toy. When played with, it releases a clown when the crank is turned.
The evil Clown-in-a-Box has a flame pattern and when used will scare the Sim using it, causing a drop in fun and comfort. It will also cause the bladder need to plummet forcing the Sim to get to a toilet instantly or they will wet themselves. However, it is said that mean Sims actually ''like'' the evil Clown-in-a-Box.

{{clr}}
====Brinks' Kite====
[[File:Brinks'_Kite.jpg|thumb|right|A normal Brinks' Kite sitting on the floor.]]
With this toy, Sims can literally "go fly a kite", if there's enough room and the wind is right. The evil version is metallic, has red eyes, and attracts [[lightning]].
{{clr}}
====Twirl, Spin, and Wobble!====
[[File:Kid_using_TS_and_W.jpg|thumb|right|A child playing on the Twirl, Spin, and Wobble.]]
Toddlers and children can sit on this and spin around for fun, though they may get dizzy. Other Sims can watch for fun, though they may get dizzy if their needs are low enough. This toy has no evil version.

'''New Toy Available''': Wet n' Wild Water Wiggler
{{clr}}
====Wet n' Wild Water Wiggler====
[[File:Evil_Wiggler.jpg|thumb|right|An evil Wet n' Wild Wiggler. It spawns weeds whenever used.]]
Up to four Sims can use this water sprayer at once, and others can watch for fun. If it is used outdoors, it will not leave puddles. If ''[[The Sims 2: Pets|Pets]]'' is installed, dogs who have been trained to be clean can be told to wash themselves in it. Dogs who have been trained to be playful can also be told to wash themselves in it, as dogs seem to think the Water Wiggler is fun. A [[Servo#The Sims 2|Servo]] may try to use this toy autonomously. While this will not necessarily cause the Servo to run amok, it is still a bad idea, as it will drain the Servo's Power motive. ([https://modthesims.info/download.php?t=570457 This mod] at [[Mod The Sims]] will keep Servos from autonomously playing in a Water Wiggler.)
The evil version is a bright red squid that will leave puddles and spawn weeds even when it is used outdoors.

{{Infobox object
|name = The Titanic Toy Machine
|desc = The Titanic Toy Machine was designed and built by a group of vagabond gnomes. They have since disappeared without a trace and no one knows exactly how the machine works, so thank heaven for clearly labeled buttons. Regardless, if you are looking for amazing toys for all ages, then fire it up and watch the magic happen. Just don't be surprised if those gnomes threw in a few kinks.

Toy making returns to ''The Sims 3'' via The Titanic Toy Machine, which can be bought in ''The Sims 3 Store'' for 545 SimPoints. It is also included in the gold version of [[Midnight Hollow]]. Sims can craft toys that are not available in [[buy mode]] using this machine. Crafting toys is free, however the process can also fail, resulting in creation of a broken toy object, called as "Misfit Monstrosity". All the toys are craftable from the start. Sims can choose to create toys individually or randomly.
Similar to the mechanic in ''The Sims 2: Open for Business'', players can create toy stores and sell crafted toys using the [[Business#Savvy Seller's Collection|Savvy Seller's Collection]], which also comes with Midnight Hollow.
