The Sims 4: Growing Together expansion pack makes family play more alive than ever. However, the stage of life that receives the most revisions is that of babies. Newly added to the game, a Sim’s time as a baby sets the foundation for the rest of their life. They have new learning stages, new family interactions, and even their own quirks. Here’s how to be ready for whatever fun or challenge the Quirk game throws at you and your little sim.
What are the child quirks in The Sims 4?
A big part of The Sims 4: Grow Together package is fleshing out Sims interactions and lives. Since newly added babies don’t have many traits like older sims, they get little quirks to help fill out their personality. You will be able to discover these quirks as your babies grow. For example, if he continues to have trouble falling asleep, you might find that he has the “Hate Bedtime” Quirk. Baby Sims can grow up to three Quirks as you play. In The Sims 4: Grow Together, there are 18 quirks, including:
- up early
- power jingle
- outdoor bluebell
- frequent hiccups
- frequent sneezing
- Gaseous
- Enjoy your food
- happy spitter
- messy dining room
- hate wake up time
- likes to be held
- quisquillosa
- Autochupete
- curled up sleeper
- hate bedtime
Many of these quirks will affect how you interact with your baby. You may need to be more careful when feeding a “fussy eater” or be quick to give him a favorite toy if he “hates wake-up time.” For people looking for more dynamic gameplay and sim families, Quirks is a game changer.

If you’ve ever thought the toddler game was definitely missing, Quirks is here to save the day. Quirk options for toddlers are also a bit different from infant Quirks. After all, small children are a bit more mobile. One moment they might be playing on the toilet and the next second you find they have the Love Water Quirk. Some peculiarities of young children include:
- aggressive
- charming man
- little singer
- likes to be carried
- love the water
Can you remove Quirks in The Sims 4?
Luckily, if you can’t stand your child asking you to wear it all the time, you can remove Quirks. All you have to do is click on your sim and select the Cheats Pack options. From there, head to the expansion packs where you’ll find EP13: Growing Together. Once you click on Infant Quirks in the Growing Together message, you will get a popup. This will allow you to remove Quirk or add detectable Quirk. So you can encourage your little sim to become a “little singer” or make sure to get rid of his quirk “Hiccups”.
