It's no secret that The Sims 4 is one of the most popular life simulation games of all time. EA's most recent entry to its iconic Sims series is a solid one, now with many an expansion pack under its belt to boot, too. If you're a longtime Simmer yourself, then you likely know how integral a component such as cheating is in a game like The Sims 4, or any of its predecessors for that matter. Whether you're inputting a cheeky kaching or a mind-boggling motherlode for fast cash, you've almost certainly engaged with the command bar in-game in some form or another.
While we super-involved stans may have a list of necessary cheats in mind every time we play, EA introduces new commands to the life sim game with almost every major expansion pack release. This means that the complete list of functional Sims 4 cheats is ever-growing, making it difficult to properly keep up with every useful command and its input's result. For instance, some players may not even know that Growing Together, one of the game's most popular expansion packs, arrived alongside a variety of fresh cheat codes.
If you're wondering what these Sims 4 Growing Together cheats are, you'll want to stick around here as our guide dives deep into the ins and outs of the expansion pack's most useful codes and offers a quick rundown on how to use the commands in-game for any newer or less acclimated players. For those hoping to give their infants and toddlers more quirks to those wanting some spicy midlife crises for their older Sims, here are all the Sims 4 Growing Together cheats you need and more.
All The Sims 4 Growing Together Cheats
The list of Sims 4 cheats feels ever-growing with each new expansion pack release, making new DLC features easier to grasp or otherwise simplifying gameplay. If you're looking to tailor your Growing Together experience more to your tastes, you may want to use the cheat codes that dropped alongside the expansion pack. Here are all of the Sims 4 Growing Together cheats and a quick guide first on how you can easily use them.
How to Use Cheats in The Sims 4
If you're not familiar with using cheats in The Sims 4, it's good to learn how as you'll likely find yourself spawning some Simoleons in or altering your Sims' needs as you please at least once or twice. All you need to do to cheat is open up the command bar. To do so, press Ctrl + Shift + C on PC, all at the same time. For Mac players, it's CMD + Shift + C. This will bring your cheat or command bar up where you'll input codes.
Some cheats will require you to enable them with a certain code. These include cheats that update an object's state directly. For instance, you may input a cheat that makes all of your Sims' dirty kitchen counters clean. You also may want to fill your Sims' needs quickly. To enable such cheats, input testingcheats true into your command bar and press enter. You should then be able to use any cheat as you'd like.
Sims 4 Growing Together Cheat Commands
The Sims 4 Growing Together has been around for a good little while now and continues to stand the test of time as one of EA's greatest expansion packs ever. Along with this hefty pack came a load of new content, which of course means that various cheats were added to the game, too. Whether you're looking to make your infants more lively with fresh traits or are hoping to give your Sims some quirks, we've got you covered here with all of The Sims 4 Growing Together cheats you could ever wish for.
Before using any of these Growing Together cheats, we'd recommend that you first download the AllCheats mod from TwistedMexi here as EA often updates The Sims 4 rendering some codes no longer useful. This easy-to-install mod works to re-enable any disabled cheat codes, many of which include Growing Together cheats in particular. You should also make sure that you have the aforementioned testingcheats command enabled at all times just in case you need to debug at any point or want to use a cheat requiring it.

Now that you have a ton of new quirks, traits, and reward traits to consider cheating into your household, you may be wondering whether there are even more Sims 4 Growing Together cheats albeit ones that are more relevant to older Sims. With your infants, toddlers, and children covered, you likely want to know what you can do for your teenagers, young adults, adults, and elders now. Here are cheat commands for all those Sims, from some that affect family dynamics to dreaded midlife crises.
Before you input any family dynamic names, be sure to first enter relationship.add_bit [Sim ID #1] [Sim ID #2] without any brackets. If you don't know how to find out what a certain Sim's ID number is, you only need to type get_sim_id_by_name [First Name] [Last Name] into the cheat bar without any brackets and you'll get what you need in response. If you're trying to use a midlife crisis-related cheat, you'll conversely have to first input aspirations.complete_aspiration before each command with a space following.
