How to age up children in Sims 4?

[ndzlily8]

I've aged up the babies in Sims 4, but how do I age up the children?!

Hope you can help me!

What I do is bake a cake, any kind of cake, and when it's finished there should be an option that says "Light birthday candles" or something similar to that, hope I helped c:

You make a cake add candles then tell sim to blow out candles.

If you have the add candles interaction missing, move the cake around a bit and make sure it's the only item on the counter. There's currently a bit of a bug with that

Not working. Don't have the option to light candles. The baker immediately takes a piece.

The same problem happened to me. What you need to do is as soon as the cake goes into the oven, go to normal time and when it comes out, pause the game. Then click it and choose add candles. Then get the sim you're trying to age up to blow it out. Hope this works for you

Is your sim hungry? If so this is why they take a slice.

I'm so confused. I did this and lit the candles but I don't have an option for my sim to blow out candles? And the age is ready..
