Learn how to throw different parties like weddings and birthdays in The Sims 3, and understand the role of NPCs like babysitters and burglars.
Walkthrough

- 2Set a dress code (formal or casual) and a start time, ensuring it is at least 2 hours after the current time.
- 3Select the type of party: House Party, Funeral, Wedding, Birthday, or Campaign Fundraiser.
- 4For a Birthday party, you can purchase a birthday cake.
- 5For a Campaign Fundraiser, the party's success influences the donations received.
- 6To increase the chances of guests attending, maintain a good long-term relationship with them.
- 7Ensure there is plenty of social interaction among guests for a successful party.
Tips
- Reading pregnancy books can increase the chance of positive traits for your baby.
- Listening to children's music or watching children's TV can increase the chance of twins or triplets.
- Eating 3 apples during pregnancy increases the chance of having a boy.
- Eating 3 watermelons during pregnancy increases the chance of having a girl.
- A babysitter (a controllable Non-Player Character, or NPC (non-player character — anyone the game controls, not you)) costs §75 per visit to look after children. If children are left alone for too long, a social worker will take them.
- A burglar may attempt to steal expensive items at night. You can call the police, fight them yourself (if you have the Brave trait or are a police officer and have a high athletic skill), or install a burglar alarm to automatically call the police.
