How to Have the Best Birthday Pary in The Sims 4?
Preparations
The first thing that you want to get right is the actual place where you’re going to host the event. This can be your current home, be that inside or outside of the house. Generally, you want the place to have enough room for your guests, just so you can execute the interactions without a problem. If you don’t think you have the best place for the occasion, you can always download one from the Gallery.
Make sure to place food and refreshments on the table, alongside the birthday cake. The atmosphere should be fun, so games and stuff like that can really boost the room’s energy. A good rule is to always have an instrument lying around, as well as a stereo with music on. The idea here is to prepare the event before it even starts, so the Sims will have tons of activities to keep them engaged.
