To make your baby crawl in Sims FreePlay, you need to initiate a specific interaction involving a pet, followed by a brief change of location. This method unlocks the baby's ability to move around the house independently.
How to Get Your Baby to Crawl
Unlocking the crawling ability for your baby Sim in Sims FreePlay is straightforward, primarily involving an interaction with a household pet. Follow these steps:
Step-by-Step Guide to Baby Crawling
- Ensure You Have a Pet: Your household must have a pet, such as a dog or a cat, for this interaction to occur.
- Select the Baby: Tap on your baby Sim to select them.
- Interact with the Pet: Choose the option for the baby to "Interact with Pet." This will initiate a specific interaction between the baby and your household animal.
- Leave the Lot Temporarily: While the baby is interacting with the pet (or shortly after the interaction has started), send any Sim (an adult, or even the one holding the baby) to a different location, such as another lot, a community area, or the world map.
- Return to the Lot: Immediately return to the home lot where the baby is.
- Observe the Change: Upon your return, you will find the baby on the floor, likely still near or looking at the pet. At this point, the baby has learned to crawl!
New Abilities After Crawling
Once your baby Sim has learned to crawl, a new set of interactions and movements becomes available, significantly expanding their independence within the game:
- Crawl Around Freely: Babies can now move around the house on their own, exploring different rooms.
- Hold Onto Furniture: They can briefly stand up by holding onto certain couches, chairs, and other suitable furniture items.
- Picked Up by Adults: Adult Sims can now pick up the baby directly from the floor, rather than only from the crib.
- New Interaction Possibilities: The ability to crawl often unlocks new animations and interactions with objects and other Sims.
