Toy Making: Difference between revisions

[[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 [[Funfun]] objects. These are usually for children[[child]]ren and toddlers[[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]].

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 [[toy]]stoys 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.

Bang It Kids Drum can be used by [[toddler]] and [[child]] Sims. Using this toy raises the [[Instrument skill|drums skill]] up to level 3<ref name="Store"/>, and it can result in a bad moodlet for other Sims around.

Kites can be used by all Sims aged child and older. When there is enough room, Sims can perform "Play With Kite" with interaction which raises [[fun]] need. Similar with the kite from ''The Sims 2'', it has a chance to attract lightning.<ref name="Store">[https://store.thesims3.com/productDetail.html?productId=OFB-SIM3:69433 The Titanic Toy Machine Store Page]</ref>
