So I am rebuilding again since I've switched to a new computer with a new game engine and new EPs and SPs and all, and I've been playing a Sideshow Challenge with the Newson family for fun in the breaks of the rebuild-the-buildings, lay-out-the-hood, write-down-everyone's-info, put-into-base-game-and-extract, finish-the-last-bit-of-the-last-rotation, find-where-all-my-cc-came-from-in-the-first-place grind. Then I figured that I might as well share, so here you have it!
Not sure what a Sideshow Challenge is? It's a challenge by aelflaed, originally from MTS, but no longer available on that site.

It seems quite stressful! Here's hoping the kids can grow up without the social worker. :)

I'd definitely count being cute as performing for toddlers, it's true they can't do that much, and well, it's what they do best right? As for the nursery rhyme, I don't think you can direct the toddler to sing it with another sim, it has to be the other sim to initiate the action. It would be cute if the toddler could initiate, though.
Looks like it'll be a tough challenge. Playing without any adults is hard enough as it is, and on top of that the challenge rules... Yikes. Good luck! :)

Yes, being cute is 100% what toddlers do best! Pity they can't initiate the nursery rhyme, though -- my nephew initiates "Frere Jacques" and "Baa Baa Black Sheep" all the time.
Yes, tough is definitely the word! It makes the rebuild look easy, which is part of the point, I suppose...
