Same. I’m almost 60 and just started playing 3 months ago. I love it…every morning with coffee! Thanks for sharing-loved your mom’s island! -I finally know why I have those coral bell flowers! And why the black roses turn gold-and some don’t-the golden watering can!
I am only 25, but I always find it so beautiful how we all can enjoy this game together, literally no matter our age! I hope this holds the same for the next Animal Crossing game that comes hopefully in the next year or 2! Beautiful island from your mom! It helps to remind me that an island can be beautiful without codes and fake buildings!
Favorite island ever. She has really done a beautiful job! You did a perfect tour too. I played through the pandemic and about a year after. I'm 72. Thanks for sharing this!☺
I just want to say I think it’s amazing when older people play. I’m 61, and have spent 2000+ hours on my island. My daughter is a Twitch streamer and some of her most popular streams are when we play ACNH together. Anyway happy gaming!
@lumimoonplays My mom is also 79. She watches me play sometimes, but she doesn't want to play it. I can't wait to see the different seasons. Wishing you and your mom all the best. ❤
This is so refreshing to see people still decorating their islands like how we all did when we first started playing! Nowadays we’re all doing crazy complicated themes (myself included as I’m working on an overgrown steampunk island atm). You can really tell how much she just enjoys the game for how it is and it’s so lovely and relaxing to see
Right!? Don’t get me wrong, I love following insta players like May Orangeto to see the crazy things they do to their islands- and also wandering around when they post their DA- but I like my laid back, very playable island as well.
Your mum's island is literally so much nicer than mine 😂😂😂 wow! My mum passed away a few years back but she would have loved animal crossing so much. She was a bit of a gamer, played world of warcraft in her 70's 😊
@@lumimoonplays Aww thank you ☺️ When mum played WoW she mainly did crafting and hoarded loads of gold, my sons' would go and scrounge gold off of grandma 😂😂😂 my whole family played WoW
This is so moving. Her pitch-perfect aesthetic, mixes and purposing of various items across seasons, the absolute beauty and symmetry of her layout. Her clear enjoyment in the spirit of the game as it was created for play…Please, thank her for her courage in sharing her island with us. I know how tough that can be - she’s my hero 😊. My husband loves me dearly and bears with my love of this game; I dragged him over to watch this tour and he actually said “wow, she did a great job!”. He’s a clean lines guy 😊. This was just brilliant and made my day. Thank you both for sharing this with all of us. I will eagerly look for her possible seasonal updates :)❤ (subscribed! 😊)
Thank you so much! She will be so happy to hear such sweet words. And thank you for the sub. I absolutely hope to do some more seasonal update tours as her island continues to evolve.
Omg. Your mom did an amazing job! The colors, the mix of furniture, and the throw back to the way the game really is meant to be enjoyed. This is such a special island to have to always come back to. Thank you for filming this and sharing it with us! Hope to hear your mom’s commentary on her next re-design and looking forward to seeing her winter decor. Her house. I can’t get over her house! 💙
Thank you! I'm excited to make videos of her island since she'll keep changing it up and won't have a set DA to revisit. So videos can be her snapshots in time. Her house is amazing, right? I love it so much.
Her island is so cozy and cute! I love she enjoys this beautiful game. I'm a senior as well, and have played every single Animal Crossing game ever made. I love it so much!
Love it! I'm 60 and started playing the same time as your mom, but I only had the patience to play this way for about a month and then I started time traveling and visiting treasure islands. So, I always enjoy seeing islands that are Forever Islands.
@@NanaOwlKat I’ve had a cpuple no TT islands that I’ve kept going for 1-2+ years but I am definitely in a phase now where TTing is so much easier for me. 😂
I love your moms island ,I’m 65 and started playing animal crossing city folks for the Wii,then moved on to animal crossing new leaf on the 3DS now been playing animal crossing new Horizons.love these games.there so cute and non violent.
Thank you so much! I love that you've played some of the older ones. I never experienced them, New Horizons is my first AC game (and obviously my mom's). But it is such a sweet series.
I am loving seeing all the moms and grandmas like me playing AC! I started playing on the GameCube with my kids and have played every AC game since. HAPPY GAMING!
I love this! Please thank your mom for letting you share it with us. I’m close to 70 and just started playing as well. It is so much fun and I love the fact that you guys can play together. I have discovered TIs so I guess I’m not a ‘pure’ player but I’m having much more fun now that I can decorate to my heart’s desire and I guess we all play the way we love. Your mom takes such good care with her villager homes, I think she would love the DLC. Christmas is coming, it would make a great gift! Thanks again, please say hi to mom 😊 BTW, that’s a Turkey Day rug in the kitchen, one of my favorites!
So glad you found the game too! I also love using TIs. I love that the game can be played so many ways. She has the DLC but hadn't played it yet. I just showed her how to get there this past Saturday after we set up her DA. I also think she will love it. And thank y u for the rug identification. I thought it might be the Turkey Day but I could not remember! 😂
She have an amazing island. And even more amazing that is her first experience with videogames. I would like to know... -How you were introduced to videogames?(Im a gamer thanks to my mom) -How she reacted when you gave her/or she bought the Switch? -Is she interested in others games?(My mom used to watch me play Splatoon all the time and laughed at me every time I lost) I have so many questions. Thanks for this amazing video.
Thank you so much! I got into gaming on my own. I'm older so we didn't even have a computer when I was very young and we never had a console. But I did play a few PC games as a teen. Then got into more PC games as a young adult. But my first switch in 2020 was my first console ever. My mom was very excited to get her switch. She actually has the cobalt blue switch lite. She has played the watermelon game (Suika) and likes that one a lot but not any other games so far.
I love that you have this sort of relationship with your mom. My 74 year old mom would think this is the stupidest thing ever and it’s really sad she can’t see that things like this bring others joy. Tell her that her island is really beautiful!
Awwww, that's so hard! I am sorry your mom wouldn't be into it. My mom never thought video games were stupid but this is her first and it took her a long time to decide to try it. Maybe it was just where she was at this point in her life that made her want something sweet and fun like ACNH. 💙
I just visited your mom's dream address. I loved it! I love the sound of running on the terracotta path so much I changed mine from brick to terracotta!
there is something so special to me about seeing all of the older animal crossing players in the comments of this video 😭 i’ve been playing animal crossing since i was 5 years old on the gamecube, im 20 now ! 🥹 there’s something so deeply wonderful about how animal crossing appeals to and brings comfort to audiences of all ages. i hope that it’s still around when im older 🥹 your moms island is so cute.
Yes! I love this too. And I am probably considered an older player being in my 50s but it is so wonderful that this game can be enjoyed by everyone. My youngest kid loves it too. I love that you have been playing it since you were 5! I wish I had known about it earlier. New Horizons is my first AC game.
This is so wholesome! I loooove how natural and serene her island feels. I just started my very first island and I plan to keep it natural and play the game without any time traveling, treasure islands etc. I can’t wait to see how my island looks in a year
Thank you! And yay for your island. I have had a few no-time travelling islands and I love it. It'll be so amazing for you to look back on yours at the end of the year.
I adore this!!! Your momma needs to make an appearance sometime in a video so we can shower her with compliments!! This is nostalgia island. So so cute!! 🥰
@@lumimoonplays Please tell her we would love it so so much!! Her island is just adorable - I love it so much and the love that it seems she put into it!!
Thank you so much for the tour of your mother's island. It is so cute how proud you are of her beautiful island. I am 72 and I also do my dailies; change outfits every morning and change into pj's each night before shutting the game down for the night. Love to you and your mother. I will check back to see the changes she makes for the different seasons. 💕🌻🌳🌺🌲🌼🌴🏵🌳💖
I enjoyed watching this tour, and would love to see more. I also used a lot of in game pathways. I love seeing it on the map. I may put some custom paths over it, but if I can use in game paths, and it will still look great, I still do so. I would also love to see it decorated for the holidays too.
@@lumimoonplays I know what you mean. I also love the in game paths. On my GHOSTEARTH island, I used in game paths everywhere,except to the actual campsite. I could not get it to really look good there. I may have put lots of custom paths over parts of the actual pathway in different areas, But I love the fact that the actual in game pathway does show up on the map, And some is pretty gorgeous too, Plus in game pathway, not covered up by a custom path does have actual sounds which I like.
Wow. This is so amazing. I’m like your mom, I enjoy the process. I worked on my island for over a year and then one day my daughter and I both decided to start our two islands fresh. I didn’t play for a bit and had forgotten that I started over and I was so sad. I’m still early into the new island, and decided to stop moving forward to work on getting a blue rose. That’s taking a while. I’m sticking to it for now though. That being said, seeing your mother’s island is making me look forward to building out my own island. Hers is so dreamy.
Thank you so much! I am also so inspired by her island. I love that you are working on a blue rose. I love the flower breeding. You feel so accomplished when you finally get it.
I'm so glad I found this video today. My daughter bought me a Switch lite a few years ago and Animal Crossing is the only game I learned to play. I love it so much. Since then I upgraded to a regular Switch and she also taught me how to use a dock and so I can play using my TV screen now. So fun! Your Mom's island is amazing, I will sub so I can see any updates you post! thank you for the beautiful tour and the inspiration!
Oh yay! Thank you so much for the sub and my mom will love to hear your sweet words about her island. So glad you love the game too. It's really something special.
I am in LOVE with the sitting room/plant room. Honestly the whole house... I love great interiors. Her whole island has such a nice natural feel, and laid out like a tidy park/botanical garden. I just deleted my first island that I spent a year and a half on, and I'm so excited to think of new possibilities for my next island. Im feeling pretty inspired right now! Edit: If she makes changes for winter, it would be fun to see her island again!
Thank you so much! She loves hearing all these kind comments. I love her island so much too. How exciting to be starting a new island! I love a restart.
I absolutely love her island. So well thought out and executed. It has such tranquil cozy feels. I haven’t played in over a year and seeing this has really inspired me to play again. I will subscribe and save her DA code!❤ Thank you for taking the time and sharing this, you are a sweet daughter.
Oh gosh! Yay! Thank you! I hope you have fun playing again! I have gone in and out of burn out periods but this game is so special it always pulls me back.
This island is like everything a regular casual player wants their island to be, and strives for while watching master builders just crack out multiple spots.
This is the most excellent video. I've been trying to get my mom on AC as well, but I'm thinking maybe she's still too young lol. I'm 21, and watching older folks playing makes my heart happy. I hope to play this game often in my life no matter how old I get and introduce as many people to it as I can. I even bought my close friend a switch and AC on black friday so she can start playing since she expressed it was on her radar LOL
Well I am 51 and LOVE it! My kids got me the game and a switch lite during COVID. I have since upgraded to a regular switch and now play ACNH more than my kids 😂
This is the first video I have seen of yours I'm so excited I am older as well almost 60 and this is the first video game I have ever fallen in love with never been able to play before congratulations mom❤
Awww, thank you on my mom's behalf! It's so neat that this game has really spanned all the age groups from young kids who love it to middle aged (like me) and beyond!
Aww that's so sweet that you're showing off your mom's island 🏝️ and it's super neat that you both can play together!!❤ I am 42 years old and I definitely want to purchase a Nintendo Switch OLED and purchase this Animal Crossing New Horizons game.
Your mom and I play somewhat similarly so I loved seeing her island! She’s made so much more island designing progress than me though lol. I’m just slow and indecisive. The sitting area by the water near the mush stools and glowing moss, etc. was actually super cute and calming. Like it looked so peaceful over there; imagine having a nice moment just sitting by a calm river or pond. So cute. I don’t think I’ve ever seen that rug she used in the kitchen. Also the color coordination of her bedroom with the pinks and greens and the white. So nice! Do you know how far she has progressed with her Nook Mile Achievements? Also Team In-Game Pathing let’s gooo. Also Jacques is so cute. Excellent job, LumiMumPlays💙
@@saltydornishman Thank you on my mom’s behalf! I am also slow and indecisive so I feel you! It’s amazing how much she has done. I need to figure out what rug that is. 😂
I loved this so much 🥹 I felt such nostalgia omg! I had this map on my hardmode island and also a few other times and I just love it and I loved all the mushroom items and all the arches and her interiors, it was all just so adorable!
So lovely! I love how open the island is but still pretty filled. Mine is feels almost cluttered now, maybe its just cuz ive been working on it since i first got the game lol
@lumimoonplays I have mostly played early ones but went hard on this in 2020 still check on it occasionally and add things my switch is a forever town, I have a forever new leaf and a NEW new leaf town is just started as well as a wild world new town planning those as forever towns as well now haha only time traveling I do is cuz I work but not for ffw purposes. You should check them out if you can! I have some videos but you def should play some of the ogs! New leaf is my fave. Your mom is inspirational!
@lumimoonplays omg you should definitely check out at least wild world and new leaf 💞 some forever towns on those games are amazing. I just restarted both but posted my 11 year old New Leaf town tour also (my og copy that is a forever town) they are very replayable and fun to re visit. Your mom's island is.inspiring!
I’ve been playing AC since it came out on the GameCube. It started with my kids wanting me to “get them money” so they could buy things. It developed into me buying and playing every game on every system, into hacking my DS -ACNL -and getting stuff for all the kids I met on the public island 🤣 Anyway, my adult kids returned the favor and bought a switch for me Christmas just before ACNH came out. I think I’ll be playing Animal Crossing until I leave the earth ❤
This sounds like me, daughters gave me a switch and this game because I had never played any video games. I have not missed a day since I started, just over a year ago (just got my cake 🎂🙂) I do my daily challenges / tasks, even get up early to log on quickly before work some mornings. I am just starting to change my island slowly. Still really enjoy my villagers and don’t want to switch them out although I did send one to my daughter’s island (and visited) when there I got Maple because she was cute. My children have tried to introduce me to other games, I can’t get a hang of them, so stick to ACNH. 😎 Nice to know I’m not the only one who plays like this.
Such a great island. Your mom can be proud of what she has accomplished. I wish I could get my mom to play ACNH too. She is also 79 years old. How did you start playing with her? Was that your idea or did she ask if you could show it to her?
@@bea.monokuma I can’t even remember how it exactly happened. I think it was a combo of her watching me have fun with it and her wanting a fun thing to do. She’d never been interested in video games before. But I think one day she mentioned maybe getting a switch and I was like, “Do it!”
What a beautiful island. I'll be curious, does she like making the snowboy's in the winter or is she one of the one's that's like I hate the snowboy's and puts a heater beside them? It'll be interesting to see this island again in the future. Love the design of all the interiors. It's all so calming and peaceful.
@@Princess_of_Pineapples she was fine making them once she got the hang of it. She thinks she got all their recipes last winter. I was going to check her diy app but then we got distracted doing all the DA stuff! 😂
So cute! I don’t think I can ever make that! (I do have ACNH but don’t have cute decorations for a cottagecore island😢) I’m 10, and I have played in my island, Sparkle (now I don’t like the name😅), for about 1 year, or half a year actually.
omg the island is gorgeous!! im so glad shes enjoying the game and the experience, you can really tell how much love shes poured into the game, its so awesome! :D
It’s very revealing your mom’s house has no tv but so many plants and meditative spaces. She seems like she must be a very serene person.
@@Mixxie67 yes she loves meditative spaces!
Nice to see more older people playing! I am 71 years old and love AC 😍 her island is cute 🤩
That is so awesome! I love how much this game appeals to people of all ages. 😊
@@Arwen-y1w I agree, im only 36 and im thrilled everytime I see people my age and older playing this game, or any game really
Good for you, I'm also a older gamer 59 and I love it ❤
Same. I’m almost 60 and just started playing 3 months ago. I love it…every morning with coffee! Thanks for sharing-loved your mom’s island! -I finally know why I have those coral bell flowers! And why the black roses turn gold-and some don’t-the golden watering can!
@@heidicain8641 That sounds perfect, every morning with coffee! So glad you love this game too. It really is amazing.
I love ACNH. I AM 71 years old and have been hooked since Covid. I also play every day with my morning coffee! Happy Gaming!
Happy gaming to you too!
Love love love this.

It is really amazing how it spans the entire age range of players. I love that. It reminded me about how beautiful a vanilla island can be too!

Nowadays we’re all doing crazy complicated themes (myself included as I’m working on an overgrown steampunk island atm). You can really tell how much she just enjoys the game for how it is and it’s so lovely and relaxing to see

I just deleted my first island that I spent a year and a half on, and I'm so excited to think of new possibilities for my next island. Im feeling pretty inspired right now!
Edit: If she makes changes for winter, it would be fun to see her island again!
Thank you so much! She loves hearing all these kind comments. I love her island so much too. How exciting to be starting a new island! I love a restart.
I finished watching, the video, and her island is superb.
I loved seeing every inch of it, and her creativity too.
I absolutely love her island. So well thought out and executed. It has such tranquil cozy feels. I haven’t played in over a year and seeing this has really inspired me to play again. I will subscribe and save her DA code!❤ Thank you for taking the time and sharing this, you are a sweet daughter.
Oh gosh! Yay! Thank you! I hope you have fun playing again! I have gone in and out of burn out periods but this game is so special it always pulls me back.
Its authentic and loved islands like this that truly inspire me & get me out of burnout! ❤
I agree! ☺
I loved the "I told you so" garden 😊
Her island has inspired me
Awww, that's so sweet! She'll love to hear that she's provided inspo!
This is so adorable!
This island is like everything a regular casual player wants their island to be, and strives for while watching master builders just crack out multiple spots.
@@MoonStruckBunnyIRL so true!
Your mum’s island is so pretty! I love arches too, haha ^^ I love the alternating between the bushes and flowers for path boarders ^^
Thank you so much! Her island makes ME love arches too!
57 love this game stared this during covid years and still have my island up and running, welcome to your mum❤
That's so great! Do you still have your original island?
I’m 58 . My son got me hooked on AMNH. During Covid. I was board out of my mind and needed something to do.
@@melissabridge5687 my mom really appreciates the having something to do aspect of it. It’s brought a lot of joy into her days.
Your moms island looks so amazing, so much hard work as gone into it so well done to your mom ❤
Thank you on her behalf! She is so happy to hear all these kind comments.
@@lumimoonplays She's welcome ❤
This is the most excellent video. I've been trying to get my mom on AC as well, but I'm thinking maybe she's still too young lol.
I'm 21, and watching older folks playing makes my heart happy. I hope to play this game often in my life no matter how old I get and introduce as many people to it as I can. I even bought my close friend a switch and AC on black friday so she can start playing since she expressed it was on her radar LOL
Thank you so much! And that is amazing that you bought your friend a switch. 😊
Well I am 51 and LOVE it! My kids got me the game and a switch lite during COVID. I have since upgraded to a regular switch and now play ACNH more than my kids 😂
This is the first video I have seen of yours I'm so excited I am older as well almost 60 and this is the first video game I have ever fallen in love with never been able to play before congratulations mom❤
Awww, thank you on my mom's behalf! It's so neat that this game has really spanned all the age groups from young kids who love it to middle aged (like me) and beyond!
Aww that's so sweet that you're showing off your mom's island 🏝️ and it's super neat that you both can play together!!❤ I am 42 years old and I definitely want to purchase a Nintendo Switch OLED and purchase this Animal Crossing New Horizons game.
I fully support that! This game is so lovely.
Your mom and I play somewhat similarly so I loved seeing her island! She’s made so much more island designing progress than me though lol. I’m just slow and indecisive. The sitting area by the water near the mush stools and glowing moss, etc. was actually super cute and calming. Like it looked so peaceful over there; imagine having a nice moment just sitting by a calm river or pond. So cute.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen that rug she used in the kitchen. Also the color coordination of her bedroom with the pinks and greens and the white. So nice!
Do you know how far she has progressed with her Nook Mile Achievements? Also Team In-Game Pathing let’s gooo. Also Jacques is so cute. Excellent job, LumiMumPlays💙
@@saltydornishman Thank you on my mom’s behalf! I am also slow and indecisive so I feel you! It’s amazing how much she has done. I need to figure out what rug that is. 😂
I loved this so much 🥹 I felt such nostalgia omg! I had this map on my hardmode island and also a few other times and I just love it and I loved all the mushroom items and all the arches and her interiors, it was all just so adorable!
@@crispycrafts1520 So nostalgic, right? I love that she has a map you’ve had! 🥰
So lovely! I love how open the island is but still pretty filled. Mine is feels almost cluttered now, maybe its just cuz ive been working on it since i first got the game lol
@@LPKitty4Jenn It’s hard not to give in the the clutter! I’m not sure how my mom balances it so well.
This is super cute! her island looks amazing
Thank you! She'll be happy to hear that!
I love your mom’s island!! Her decorating is wonderful 🥰
Thank you so much!
This is everything ❤
your mom's island is so cute. thanks for sharing
Thank you!
Thanks for the inspo!❤
Oh yay! I am glad her island was inspiring!
Dang she went super hard!! Love this. This will be a neat keepsake. If my mom was laid up i would consider the DS one for her.
She really did! Thank you! I have never played any of the earlier ones but I've seen some videos of gameplay and they look fun too.
@lumimoonplays I have mostly played early ones but went hard on this in 2020 still check on it occasionally and add things my switch is a forever town, I have a forever new leaf and a NEW new leaf town is just started as well as a wild world new town planning those as forever towns as well now haha only time traveling I do is cuz I work but not for ffw purposes. You should check them out if you can! I have some videos but you def should play some of the ogs! New leaf is my fave. Your mom is inspirational!
@lumimoonplays omg you should definitely check out at least wild world and new leaf 💞 some forever towns on those games are amazing. I just restarted both but posted my 11 year old New Leaf town tour also (my og copy that is a forever town) they are very replayable and fun to re visit. Your mom's island is.inspiring!
I’ve been playing AC since it came out on the GameCube. It started with my kids wanting me to “get them money” so they could buy things.
It developed into me buying and playing every game on every system, into hacking my DS -ACNL -and getting stuff for all the kids I met on the public island 🤣
Anyway, my adult kids returned the favor and bought a switch for me Christmas just before ACNH came out.
I think I’ll be playing Animal Crossing until I leave the earth ❤
That's perfect! I love it!
This sounds like me, daughters gave me a switch and this game because I had never played any video games. I have not missed a day since I started, just over a year ago (just got my cake 🎂🙂) I do my daily challenges / tasks, even get up early to log on quickly before work some mornings. I am just starting to change my island slowly. Still really enjoy my villagers and don’t want to switch them out although I did send one to my daughter’s island (and visited) when there I got Maple because she was cute. My children have tried to introduce me to other games, I can’t get a hang of them, so stick to ACNH. 😎 Nice to know I’m not the only one who plays like this.
This is so wonderful! Thank you for sharing! This game is really so special.
Omg say hi to your Scottish mum from Scotland for me! Where in Scotland is she from? I'm in Barrhead, next to Paisley x
Love this! She's from Aberdeen!
Such a great island. Your mom can be proud of what she has accomplished. I wish I could get my mom to play ACNH too. She is also 79 years old. How did you start playing with her? Was that your idea or did she ask if you could show it to her?
@@bea.monokuma I can’t even remember how it exactly happened. I think it was a combo of her watching me have fun with it and her wanting a fun thing to do. She’d never been interested in video games before. But I think one day she mentioned maybe getting a switch and I was like, “Do it!”
This island is so beautiful!!!
Thank you!
The basement room looks really similar to how my gran decorates her house ❤️
your moms island is so cute! i subbed! i love this game so much!
Thank you! She'll be so happy to hear that. And thank you so much for the sub!
This is awesome. This is the way I lik to do mine. Keep up the good work.
Thank you!
I’m new to AC and I am def going to create an I told you so flower garden 😊 love it 😍
Isn't that so funny! And it's exciting to see someone new to the game. It's such a great game.
I am 83 and I love Animal Crossing New Horizons ❤
That's wonderful! I just love how much this game can appeal to everyone.☺
Adorable!
Thank you! She will be so happy to hear that!
I am here for the "Arch Era" 🙌🏼🥰❤❤🎉🎉
I am too!
What a beautiful island. I'll be curious, does she like making the snowboy's in the winter or is she one of the one's that's like I hate the snowboy's and puts a heater beside them? It'll be interesting to see this island again in the future. Love the design of all the interiors. It's all so calming and peaceful.
@@Princess_of_Pineapples she was fine making them once she got the hang of it. She thinks she got all their recipes last winter. I was going to check her diy app but then we got distracted doing all the DA stuff! 😂
I’m 72 and play every day on my 5 star island. I helped my grandkids with their islands.
I love this! ☺
So cute! I don’t think I can ever make that! (I do have ACNH but don’t have cute decorations for a cottagecore island😢)
I’m 10, and I have played in my island, Sparkle (now I don’t like the name😅), for about 1 year, or half a year actually.
Thank you so much! It does take a while to get a lot of the items. I hope you continue to have fun on your island!
Great island.
Thank you! 😊
Jacques is ALSO my favorite ❤❤❤
Yay! My mom loves him so much. She said he is the sweetest.
It is so cute! I love it!
Thank you! I'm excited to tell her that so many people loved her island.
Adorable 🥰
I love your mom's island
Thank you! She is so appreciative of all the kind comments!
@lumimoonplays yw
My mom isn’t that old, only 55, but she loves AC too!!
@@MossyFawnRon Yay! I love that!
I'm 71. Been playing AC forever.
I love this! 💙
what is the lil flower in your mom’s character’s hair?? so cute 🥹
I had to go look at the video again, lol, but it's the Zen Hair Clip. I think in aqua.
@@lumimoonplays thank you! I’ve never even seen that item before!
I've been wearing the same thing in my game for the last 3 months. 😂
@@pokelynke8232 oh gosh me too! Longer! 😂
Curly…
omg the island is gorgeous!! im so glad shes enjoying the game and the experience, you can really tell how much love shes poured into the game, its so awesome! :D
Thank you so much! You can really feel her love for the game, right?
@lumimoonplays absolutely!! Many well wishes to you both, i cant wait to see how she changes it up in the future!
Honestly I got a lot of inspiration from your moms island! 🥮🪻🍁
Yay! Thank you for sharing that! 😊
