In some houses- because of the way its built- they will have on slippers for certain rooms, them put them back on for other rooms. Like the main room will be viewed as outside....i had one sim that ignored the rule- and wore shoes anyway. I think he got a mischievous moodlet of some kind.... but he got scolded by a family member, then got embarrassed... lol
If you have sims woo-hoo in the rocket ship, a sim can 'Listen to space woo-hoo' on the computer. I laughed for ages when I saw that (I had a sim in the writer career so they were often on the computer, I doubt I would have found it otherwise!)
That's so funny, my current sim is a programmer/general techie & her grandmother built a spaceship for fun after retiring. Grandma also just so happens to spend a lot of time with the other neighborhood grannies in the spaceship... Curiosity is about to kill the cat on this one 🤣
@@Fishcat_Eddy I haven't seen what it produces - I think it was the wrtier's daughter in the rocket, so it didn't feel like something he would want to listen to! I've built a science museum in Oasis Springs with a rocket ship and a mission control so hopefully I can try it out there without the weird family dynamics! Not sure that Sims 4 has public woohoo though
Normally people do the same things (the secret grotto, death flowers, etc.) So it's refreshing to see you do things I actually didnt know! Thanks for all your videos. Currently binging Occult Baby and Werewolf series!
1 Corinthians Chapter 1 21 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. 22 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 23 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;
@@theharshtruthoutthere no they haven't. But I have been reading your channel description and I have a few questions. Why do you say that royals and freemasons are evil? That sounds like judgment and we aren't allowed to judge people only God can. And what denomination are you?
From years of watching different simmers, I thought I knew pretty much everything about the game, but, it turns out, I was wrong! The speaker one is the coolest! I'm definitely using it from now on! Also, now I want to buy cool kitchen stuff because those ice creams look mighty delicious~
I bought cool kitchen stuff just because of the ice cream machine xD it's really cool but it can get annoying if your sims randomly start making ice cream and all of a sudden you have a big mass of spoiled ice cream😅
I found out that you can have 2 part time jobs at the same time! My sim is a manual labourer on the weekend mornings, and a scuba diver on the weekday evenings.
@@mikamika2508 yeah I’m on rags to riches now and found out accidentally while trying to swap jobs lol, ended up with 2! For rags to riches, I highly recommend painting and selling them at 300% via the street gallery wall, I started with $0 and after 3 human days worth of play, I have $400K+
I am surprised that even with almost 3 thousand hours on the sims I was still able to learn at least 4 different things I ACTUALLY didn't know. Great work.
With regards to the ice cream, there are also a few other things I've found. When you set garnishes on the ice creams, they sometimes can have an effect. Different traits have different favorite garnishes. The sim will get a special moodlet from eating it with their perfect garnish. I can't remember all of them, though. One I do remember is that Childish Sims, or children like Sprinkles and Whipped Cream.
Did'nt know that toddlers could walk trough the pet doors, now I want to try to make somekind of playroom or secret passage that only toddlers can use😍
It doesn’t glitch. Or at least it hasn’t for me. I do an exclusive toddler room with the pet doors if and when I ever play with a dollhouse because I hate having my adults stopping what I tell them to do to play with the dollhouse.
You can always hold down shift and click anywhere on the ground that Sims can go…and have them teleport out if they get stuck in there (if you don’t feel like destroying walls)
Toddlers learning potty skill from observation had me yelling, that would have made life so much easier with my alien twins last playthrough 😭 You'd think between their older brother and dads, with one being a vampire who doesn't need sleep, it would be easier to manage them
@@explodingmangos3416 I learned it because every time I'm watching someone play a challenge involving more than one toddler and they want to skill-build them (the twins in Orange Gen of Not So Berry, that crazy multiplayer toddler challenge that Gluon hosted, everyone's Growing Together LPs...) lots of people are yelling it in the comments.
You get the moodlet even if your sim made it for themselves too! Found this out a day or two ago when I was using a sack lunch to steal food from the acting career for my new legacy sim lol
@@PaigeFrey-gs5yi you have to have parenthood and when you make food you can click it and it says pack into sack lunch or something like that then it turns into a brown bag and u put it in your sims inv
I'm feeling weirdly proud because I knew all of these, like a Sims bingo lmao. I discovered the eulogy one by accident with my politician Sim, I find that one so awesome btw. It's perfect for gameplay.
Okay so number 11 is so perfect for me. I'm currently playing a vampire who runs a vet clinic at her house, so that's another evil option yay! (she also keeps some people locked in her basement to feed on them)
I’ve been playing the sims since 2001 and I’m a avid player. I’ve been watching videos like these to see if I missed some things and they always disappoint. But YOU’VE actually taught me something, a few things actually! The “Alexa”, the toddlers potty training and a few more. You’re the goat, thank you 😊
The bees are wild. Underrated how awesome they are. It was one kf the few "did you know" that I already knew. I also like they when placed near plants they help with making them grow better. They gave so much detail into the bees I love kt
@@Fabrise88 On the other hand, it's really funny that getting stung is a queued action on the Sim, not the bees. So if you catch it appearing in the queue, you can just cancel it. "No, I don't think I will get stung right now, thank you."
not an activity but my fave detail is island living mermaids kicking sand when they’re in the shallows. i don’t know why it brings me so much happiness.
I really like the icecream machine (and the popcorn one) I just hate when its autonomously used. I wish we could lock/ restrict sims from using things. (Just like doors and computers) There's nothing more annoying than when youre trying to make dinner for the family and a sim just comes in and grabs a bowl of snacks or left overs or something. What I wouldnt give for a lock on the fridge (and appliance lol)
It's those little details that make The Sims 4 fun. Come to think of it, TS4 doesn't look that bad... if it weren't for the bugs the game would be perfect. I haven't wanted to play The Sims 4 for a while, but your video brought that desire back! Great video! I would love for you to keep making new videos showing interactions between packs, like the Vampires and Pets.
Thank you for posting about the Drama Club performance. I kept sending the family to the venue instead of clicking on the actual member, so my poor Drama Club kids kept coming back sad that no one was there to watch, even though they all went to where the performance was going to be.
I've been playing sims since it first came out. I've watched every "sims secret" video out there and I cannot believe I finally found a video that showed me new things!
I learned about the alien baby options fairly early on in the initial game release. My wife Sim was pregnant, and I was irritated that her husband got abducted. Color me surprised when he returned pregnant. I actually managed to screen capture a picture of their baby bumps touching lol. I learned some new features, thanks!
I vaguely remember them telling us there were advantages to befriending the speaker when they patched it in, but it had a bug when it first released so I never used it, forgot all about it, and never knew what the advantages were! That could be so useful! I didn’t know about the podium eulogy either, probably because I almost never play with politicians and never have podiums on my lot.
fun tip: if you play on long lifespan and have seasons, you can set up a summer vacation for the kids by setting up a holiday on as many days as you want, making sure the “vacation from work/school” is checked. mine is coming up and im excited to have some summer fun in the sun without worrying about school! you can also extend any actual holidays by how many days you want as well.
I knew about the outfits, but every thing else was new to me and I’ve been playing since Sims 1 was released. I would love to see a part 2. It’s always great when we can see news ways to enhance the game experience
Well, I knew almost all of the things you showcased. There were 2, however, that I didn't know about... I didn't know about toddlers getting the potty skill just from watching another toddler learning it. I also didn't know about the Alexa-type speaker doing things for your family when you have a high relationship with it. That is pretty cool. Now, I hafta buy it for my sim family.
I learned so many new things! yes please part two... I was so sure I knew almost everything already.. the hour I put in this game are almost shameful.. :) but there are so many things I did not know about!
Didn't know about most of this secrets. But I can't imagine someone don't know about possibility of pick 2-5 looks for a Sim in every category in CAS o_O Doggy door is so cute BTW! 😄
Oh my gosh! I never knew about the speaker! And for the pet door, I never use it cause I feel like it's unnecessary when ur pet can pass a regular human door. As for the sack lunch, I use to make it for my sims partner and kids but they never ate it and just ended up spoiling it in their inventory, I never knew they needed to be hungry when they left for school or work! :DD Thank u so much for making this video!
I dont know if people know about this now, but you didnt mention the grilled cheese aspiration. If you eat a ton of grilled cheese, you unlock it and completing it lets you instantly summon a free grilled cheese whenever you want
I didn't know I needed this video. I knew the speaker was handy and that you can get a relationship with it, but I had no idea it could hire services for you. And following the rocket launch on the computer is such an amazing addition. I had no idea. The eulogy option gives me a reason to place a podium in the mausoleum part of legacy homes.
Dang! I hardly knew any of these! I've been playing The Sims since its very beginning, well over 20 years ago. I knew a handful of these, and I won't use some of the ones you showed (although they're cool), but some are really handy to know! That lose weight via ice cream trick will really come in handy for meeting New Year's Resolutions. Didn't know about the speaker, either because I never use it. BTW: This is where the American pronunciation of Z (zee) is correct because then the name becomes Lin Zee (Lindsey--likely the Guru that created it--or just a female name, like Alexa), not Lin Zed, which makes no sense. Also, you can form a relationship with the talking toilet. I just learned that one.
I’ve always thought myself a knowledgeable Sim player, having played since Sims 1, but I honestly didn’t know most of these. It just shows how we stay in our comfort zones and don’t truly explore😂
Just got a chance to watch this, I didn't know most of this stuff! Awesome, thank you! :) Also, I loved hearing your commentary, very easy to listen to...and giggle!
the only use for doggy doors is making outdoor toddler playhouses they just dont really fit anywhere since doggy doors irl are apart of the actual door
I have almost 3 years worth of time into this game (horus wise) and there were a few I had no idea of (kids using doggy doors & vampires + pets) this is why I'm subbed.
I love the pet doors because it means I can make sure they only go out that door to avoid them getting sick easier. I never move into a Sims house without the sprinkler system installed, the fire isn't worth it! I actually had no freaking clue about the additional outfit option, I've been playing since release I just never knew...really shows how little I pay attention in this game 😬 I haven't touched the ice cream machine in years so I had no clue about the ice cream differences, I need to try that now.
I had the ice cream expansion for months now and I didn't know that the ice cream can have so many properties, thanks for this video, it eas very helpful
Wow! I learned a couple of things today! I didn’t know about the ice cream, the vet clinic or the sprinklers. Thank you! If you have more tricks, I’d love to learn about them! 💖💖💖
These are some pretty cool game features; I only knew of a few of them. Thank you for this video. I love the multiple outfits feature. I used this with my teens, before I discovered the Fashion Authority Mod, to give them a school uniform. I use this more often with the Cold Weather Category, I give them one outfit for Cold Weather, one outfit for Rainy Weather, and an outfit that includes a sweater or sweatshirt. Of course, they don't always use it for when its intended but being able to change them into it is pretty cool.
I might just do the cold-weather thing. Doesn't make sense for a Sim to wear a full snowsuit when it's just chilly rain out, nor does it make sense for jeans and a sweater to be sufficient at the top of Mt Komorebi.
What a fun video! I was a Sims 2 purist for many years, but when 4 became free for download I moved there. I don’t love that the lots are so limited or that time moves so slowly; I play generations (with a nobility system). But 4 is my thing now. Nice work!
The only thing I did know was the five outfits in CAS. I’m implementing the doggy door and the sprinkler right away. Definitely do a part 2 love this video
Wow I thought id know all of these but I didn’t not know a lot of these the only ones I did know where the sprinkler system, watching toddlers get potty trained, the pet doors, randomizing from the gallery and, adding outfits!
The only one I knew about was the doggy door and I forgot they existed because I VERY rarely had seen them on houses I get from the gallery. TYSM for this :)
That was really good. I’ve played Sims for years and I only knew two or three of these. Thank you so much for making this video, I will be going through your videos to see if you made a part two if you haven’t make a part two.🎉❤
So I absolutely loved this. I was like, 'yeah yeah, another "things you don't know" ', but goodness! From the first one, I was taken. Like, wow. People NEVER cover this kind of stuff. I did know the two CAS ones.
Thank you! I've been playing since Sims 1, and up till now I've never seen one of these videos that showed things I did not already know, and more than half of this info I did not already know! I use that speaker all the time and never noticed it could do those things! And the multiple outfits! Just, thank you lol.
I’ve played the Sims since Sims two and I’ve play the Sims four since they came out, but I didn’t know most of these. If you have enough for another one please make one and if not please make shorts or something I would love to see more like this
I actually went into this thinking there was NO way that after 9 years, I wasn't going to know about every single thing on this list. Turns out, I actually didn't know about MOST of them!!!
New things I learned even though I’ve owned the game and every pack as released since the beginning: • speaker • space launch watch • thank you letters • making a eulogy • toddler potty skill • pet plasma packs? I knew you could make a sack lunch but didn’t understand what it was for lol I use mods and cc, watch other simmers and still learned lots 🤍
I liked and subscribed because I did learn some new things. Mostly though because she waited until the end of the video to talk about the like button and subscribing.
lmao the "kids, stay inside, you don't need to see that" for the death while mine saw the cleaner dying in the bathroom while they were on the potty XD
Hmmm about the randomized sims from the gallery, I must say I was doing this two days ago and I got the EXACT same sims as you do - Lenora, Krester and Deon. I wonder if there is a "premade" choice of who is going to be a pick from gallery this day/week?
I knew about everything except the speaker, listening to space launch, the bees, give eulogy, alien baby sent home, sprinkler system, vampire/pet’s blood, gallery randomize, ice cream, or the drama club. So, pretty much all of the ones you shared. Thanks so much. I will have to try some of them.
This is insane’ I e watched so many hints and secrets videos and not seen basically all these on there!! Love the CAS one being able to have more than one outfit already and ready to go
i genuinely thought I would know all these. but the first two I had no clue existed... most of the others either. Also subbed simply because of the persona music background. :)
Literally never knew there were doggy / toddler doors! Literally did not know how useful that fire alarm with the sprinklers is! AND LITERALLY ice cream!
The learning-by-watching thing actually works in real life, I've seen a kid learn to walk from watching his twin brother fall again and again, then one day I put him down and he just walked across the room!
Oh wow I did learn some things lol, I did not know about the different things ice cream could do, and I wish I could unknow about pet plasma now lol! Teen sims also can get the drama club pop up, that was the first time I saw it, I didn't realise kids could join drama club as I'd never tried it. Thanks for making this video! 😄I have just added that speaker to my current Sims household to see how they get on with it. Oh and I also was not aware of the randomising Sims from gallery, but I do know about the outfits, as when my child sims go through a bear phase I always have the family join them, and then forget to remove that outfit and on laundry day they always change into the bear costume and surprise me! 🤣
If you click on the shoe rack, you can choose for everyone to wear slippers or go shoeless indoors. I'm not sure how many knew that one.

And following the rocket launch on the computer is such an amazing addition. I had no idea.
The eulogy option gives me a reason to place a podium in the mausoleum part of legacy homes.
Dang! I hardly knew any of these! I've been playing The Sims since its very beginning, well over 20 years ago. I knew a handful of these, and I won't use some of the ones you showed (although they're cool), but some are really handy to know! That lose weight via ice cream trick will really come in handy for meeting New Year's Resolutions. Didn't know about the speaker, either because I never use it. BTW: This is where the American pronunciation of Z (zee) is correct because then the name becomes Lin Zee (Lindsey--likely the Guru that created it--or just a female name, like Alexa), not Lin Zed, which makes no sense. Also, you can form a relationship with the talking toilet. I just learned that one.
I've been playing the sims for a few years and this totally changed the gameplay for me. Thanks!
I’ve always thought myself a knowledgeable Sim player, having played since Sims 1, but I honestly didn’t know most of these. It just shows how we stay in our comfort zones and don’t truly explore😂
Just got a chance to watch this, I didn't know most of this stuff! Awesome, thank you! :) Also, I loved hearing your commentary, very easy to listen to...and giggle!
the only use for doggy doors is making outdoor toddler playhouses they just dont really fit anywhere since doggy doors irl are apart of the actual door
been playing this game for YEARS, but the amount of stuff i know nothing about is shookening. lol. many thanks for this ♥️ all the best ✨
I have almost 3 years worth of time into this game (horus wise) and there were a few I had no idea of (kids using doggy doors & vampires + pets) this is why I'm subbed.
I didn't realize that you could have multiple outfits in the same category! That's cool!
I love the pet doors because it means I can make sure they only go out that door to avoid them getting sick easier.
I never move into a Sims house without the sprinkler system installed, the fire isn't worth it!
I actually had no freaking clue about the additional outfit option, I've been playing since release I just never knew...really shows how little I pay attention in this game 😬
I haven't touched the ice cream machine in years so I had no clue about the ice cream differences, I need to try that now.
I had the ice cream expansion for months now and I didn't know that the ice cream can have so many properties, thanks for this video, it eas very helpful
The speaker one is actually really cool! I'd love to have a part 2! 🥰
Wow! I learned a couple of things today! I didn’t know about the ice cream, the vet clinic or the sprinklers. Thank you! If you have more tricks, I’d love to learn about them! 💖💖💖
These are some pretty cool game features; I only knew of a few of them. Thank you for this video.
I love the multiple outfits feature. I used this with my teens, before I discovered the Fashion Authority Mod, to give them a school uniform. I use this more often with the Cold Weather Category, I give them one outfit for Cold Weather, one outfit for Rainy Weather, and an outfit that includes a sweater or sweatshirt. Of course, they don't always use it for when its intended but being able to change them into it is pretty cool.
I might just do the cold-weather thing. Doesn't make sense for a Sim to wear a full snowsuit when it's just chilly rain out, nor does it make sense for jeans and a sweater to be sufficient at the top of Mt Komorebi.
I've been playing Sims 4 for years. I'm surprised by how many of these interactions I didn't know about!
the way i only knew a thing or two is beyond me. Really nice to know all this stuff!
I’ve always knew about doggie doors but I 100% forgot they existed lol now I feel inspired to make a mini toddler-pet only playhouse
That's a great idea!
What a fun video! I was a Sims 2 purist for many years, but when 4 became free for download I moved there. I don’t love that the lots are so limited or that time moves so slowly; I play generations (with a nobility system). But 4 is my thing now. Nice work!
The only thing I did know was the five outfits in CAS. I’m implementing the doggy door and the sprinkler right away. Definitely do a part 2 love this video
Wow I thought id know all of these but I didn’t not know a lot of these the only ones I did know where the sprinkler system, watching toddlers get potty trained, the pet doors, randomizing from the gallery and, adding outfits!
Knew about:
Doggie doors
Packed lunches
Thank you notes
Sending alien babies back
Sprinkler system
Multiple outfits
Randomize from sim gallery
Drama club shows
Didn't know about:
Service bees
Befriending stereo
Eulogy
Watching for potty skill
Breakup notes
Vampire Vets?!
Ice cream effects
I didn't know about drinking pet's plasma and the plant sim ice cream 🙈 Thank you for the interesting video haha
The only one I knew about was the doggy door and I forgot they existed because I VERY rarely had seen them on houses I get from the gallery. TYSM for this :)
That was really good. I’ve played Sims for years and I only knew two or three of these. Thank you so much for making this video, I will be going through your videos to see if you made a part two if you haven’t make a part two.🎉❤
I actually didn’t know a good handful of these and I’m a console player who got it when it came out. Great video !
These are so fun, thank you for making this video! And shout out to this family, you put them through a lot 😂
I never really got the hang of the sack lunches and now I do! So helpful, thank you.
Same! I thought it was a waste of a serving and an eventual annoyance in my inventory.
The Lin-z and the eulogy one are things I've never noticed, or heard any other simmer mention before. Thanks!
This is amazing!! I have almost 600 hours in sims 4 and I didn't know a lot of these!! Thank you!!!
I have played the Sims for 23 years, now I thought I knew everything about it. Turns out I was wrong, now I am going to be using these!! Thank you!
So I absolutely loved this. I was like, 'yeah yeah, another "things you don't know" ', but goodness! From the first one, I was taken. Like, wow. People NEVER cover this kind of stuff.
I did know the two CAS ones.
Thank you! I've been playing since Sims 1, and up till now I've never seen one of these videos that showed things I did not already know, and more than half of this info I did not already know! I use that speaker all the time and never noticed it could do those things! And the multiple outfits! Just, thank you lol.
I’ve played the Sims since Sims two and I’ve play the Sims four since they came out, but I didn’t know most of these. If you have enough for another one please make one and if not please make shorts or something I would love to see more like this
This is very inspiring! Thank you. I didn't know the space launch, eulogy, alien baby, random from gallery and a few others!!
This video was so helpful! Ive never known about the speaker!! haha. Love this. Thank you
I actually went into this thinking there was NO way that after 9 years, I wasn't going to know about every single thing on this list. Turns out, I actually didn't know about MOST of them!!!
New things I learned even though I’ve owned the game and every pack as released since the beginning:
• speaker
• space launch watch
• thank you letters
• making a eulogy
• toddler potty skill
• pet plasma packs?
I knew you could make a sack lunch but didn’t understand what it was for lol
I use mods and cc, watch other simmers and still learned lots 🤍
Great list. I'm suprised at how many of these suprised me.
This is awesome always looking for more tips & tricks to make this game even more immersive. Definitely a part 2, 3 etc...
I only knew 1 of these! 😱
Wow! I've been watching Sims videos for years and nobody talks about any of these!
Thank you for this awesome video! 😊 👍🏻💕
Omg I thought I knew everything about the sims but I didn’t know this! 😮 Tysm for making this video💗 I would love to see a part 2 😁
wOAH! I learned a ton of new things! Love this! My fav one is learning that Vampires who work as veterinarians can extract plasma packs from pets!
Ive been playing the sims for years and also make movies from it, but still do not know this much. Thank you for sharing!
I liked and subscribed because I did learn some new things. Mostly though because she waited until the end of the video to talk about the like button and subscribing.
OMG of course!! We need part 2 ^^
lmao the "kids, stay inside, you don't need to see that" for the death while mine saw the cleaner dying in the bathroom while they were on the potty XD
I'm impressed. There actually were few things I didn't know in this video. I didn't know you can potty train two kids at the same time.
Your randomized sims are 1000x better than mine... I have a ton of cc and they never look nearly as put together lol. Great video!
Hmmm about the randomized sims from the gallery, I must say I was doing this two days ago and I got the EXACT same sims as you do - Lenora, Krester and Deon. I wonder if there is a "premade" choice of who is going to be a pick from gallery this day/week?
Would you happen to know how to find deon on the gallery
I once had all my picks from the same creator, on different days 🤔😅
I didn't know a majority of these and I've been playing for a long time, thank you 😊
it is so rare that i learn something new about the sims, but here we are more tips i didn't know than tips i knew
I knew about everything except the speaker, listening to space launch, the bees, give eulogy, alien baby sent home, sprinkler system, vampire/pet’s blood, gallery randomize, ice cream, or the drama club. So, pretty much all of the ones you shared. Thanks so much. I will have to try some of them.
I literally didn't know any of this wow ! The speaker one is so cool, I love that :) but I also don't have all the packs/kits soo
Ive played the sims for years and i am learning a lot from this video!! thank you
This is insane’ I e watched so many hints and secrets videos and not seen basically all these on there!! Love the CAS one being able to have more than one outfit already and ready to go
i genuinely thought I would know all these. but the first two I had no clue existed... most of the others either.
Also subbed simply because of the persona music background. :)
I genuinely had no idea about the eulogy option or the toddlers learning at the same time!
This is the first time a video like this showed me things that actually weren’t basic knowledge of the game! 🎉🎉❤❤ I did not know a lot of these things
OMG so not only did you teach me things about the game, but the ideas!!! OH the ideas!!! A vampire ran Vet clinic, sounds like a challenge to me ;)
Literally never knew there were doggy / toddler doors! Literally did not know how useful that fire alarm with the sprinklers is! AND LITERALLY ice cream!
The learning-by-watching thing actually works in real life, I've seen a kid learn to walk from watching his twin brother fall again and again, then one day I put him down and he just walked across the room!
That's so cute! 🥰
Yes please do a part 2! This was fun
Did not know you could use pets for plasma! This gives me…ideas 👀
This was one of the most beneficial videos about the Sims I've seen so far.
I’m in that awkward phase of the Sims where I know a lot but at the same time I don’t and I’ve been playing since the Sims 3 😅
Oh wow I did learn some things lol, I did not know about the different things ice cream could do, and I wish I could unknow about pet plasma now lol! Teen sims also can get the drama club pop up, that was the first time I saw it, I didn't realise kids could join drama club as I'd never tried it. Thanks for making this video! 😄I have just added that speaker to my current Sims household to see how they get on with it. Oh and I also was not aware of the randomising Sims from gallery, but I do know about the outfits, as when my child sims go through a bear phase I always have the family join them, and then forget to remove that outfit and on laundry day they always change into the bear costume and surprise me! 🤣
