Hints:

Submitted by: RM

* Go to the sandbox and pick up the door nob, your player will fix the shed.

When

that is done, get the key from under the welcome mat, that will open the

shed.

Now you can put out fires and water the plants.

* If a person's energy is down, either give it an energy drink or keep

letting it

take naps or go to bed (it might take a few times).

* If a person's happiness is down, buy new things for it, praise it, feed it,

clean the house, and don't use the scolding hand.

* If it's hungry, buy food at the store.

* If it's health is down, make it take a shower, clean the house, or use a

towelet

or hand sanatizer.

* To fix the birdbath, you have to fix the water hose (buy waterproof tape

and

make a person get a drink, then put another person on top of the hose) then

buy

a water pump, put it by the birdbath, and put TWO people on top of it.

(It's too heavy for one).

* To repair the Workshop wall, you have to buy The Wall Repair Paint from the

Store in the Varied Items section (be patient and wait till it appears over

time).

* Put the paint and brush beside the bucket on the lower right hand of the

screen

(near the sandbox). Drop someone on the bucket and they will proceed to

fill

the bucket with water and add the paint. They will then take it to the wall

of the workshop (where the children draw on the wall) and they will proceed

to paint the wall.

* They will not complete the job on their own. You will have to keep bringing

them back after they have finished one round. Use multiple people to finish

the job quickly.

Note: Interrupting them while they are taking from the bucket will cause

the bucket to disappear and all your progress on the wall will disappeartoo!

You will have to wait for the Paint and brush to appear in the shop again.

* You need to unlock thed shed first. so go to the sandpit and in the corner

is

a doornob, your person will fix the door, then you need to unlock it by

collecting the key from under the welcome door. This will unlock the shed

which then allows you to use fire extinguishers and the watering cans.

till

* Weak/exhausted take them to their beds or hammock to sleep if they wake and

are still that way take them back till they are happy or elated.

* You have to wait for supplies to fix floor and workshop wall in the

supplies

This is simiular to the red ball cheat. It is a path which leads from one

family in

the game to the other. Just go to the tree behind were the pool would be

placed. Then,

right above the blue box were you would normally see your persons face start

clicking

multiple time. It might take a while. But eventualy you will be able to move

the mouse

without clicking and draging. At that point you can take things from that

houses

inventory and place it in the bushes. Then,just go into another family and

repeat the

procedure and you will be able to pull out what ever you placed there.

Here is a glitch I discovered by accident. Right in the middle of the housethere

should be a square of wood with a crack in it. If you click and drag very

quickly
