Wow. I love all the above ideas. I wonder if its not too late to add any of them? Especially the animals. Oh and btw, I beg to differ on the comment that they dont have anything to do at night. Ever had a master parent?? lol. I also love that idea about planting fruit bushes. Heck, just give me it all! Do you know how many times I've checked the net & stores for something - anything - similar to this game?? (And dont dare utter the blasphemy that the Sims is anything like this!)
