How to Exchange Friendship Bracelets in The Sims 4: Growing Together

Creating and exchanging friendship bracelets is a surprisingly complicated, multi-step process. However, we can divide this into three main steps:

  1. Creating the bracelet
  2. Befriending a Sim
  3. Exchanging the bracelet

Making Friendship Bracelets

The first part of making a friendship bracelet in The Sims 4 is to purchase an activity table. You’ll find these in the Build Menu for around 300 Simoleons under the Kids’ Activities section. While the base game’s version of this table is the “Creative Art Thou Activity Table,” you may find a few others if you own some expansions.

Sims 4 Creating Friendship Bracelet

Once you buy the activity table, use your child Sim to select the table and pick “Make Friendship Bracelet.” You’ll find all kinds of options, including a rainbow pattern, pastel orange, and pink hearts. It’s up to you which you pick! Choose a design and wait for your child Sim to make the bracelet. If they’re successful, the bracelet will appear in your inventory.

Befriending a Sim

The next step to exchanging friendship bracelets is to, well, make a friend! You can exchange bracelets with another child Sim once you reach Good Friends with them. Like with adult Sims, you can increase friendships by telling jokes, giving compliments, and avoiding mean interactions. You’ll receive a notification at the top of your screen when you become good friends with another Sim, but you can also check their Sim Profile for relationship and trait information.

Exchanging Friendship Bracelets

After becoming good friends with another child Sim, click on the bracelet in your inventory and choose “Exchange Friendship Bracelets.” Choose a Sim from the menu that appears to watch the two Sims exchange the bracelets, happily celebrating the occasion.

You’ll receive a bracelet in your inventory from the other Sim, which stays there until it falls off. You can also demand your original bracelet back if you feel you made a wrong choice.

Once you exchange a friendship bracelet, you’ll have to wait a while before you can gift more. More specifically, you’ll have to wait until your current one falls off before you can give away others. With that in mind, be careful who you exchange bracelets with, and make sure it’s with someone you truly consider a good friend!
