When it is time for the peeps to sleep / rest is simply turning off the game good enough or must you PUT them to bed? before shutting the game off for the night ? You would think I am caring for a regular family LOL

You just exit the game and they'll do it themselves. Even if you do put them to sleep before you exit the game, they run off to do other things anyway.

Yes because when you change game slots or quit the game it immidiately cancels the thing that they were doing unless they finished it so if you want them to get sleep you can just exit or you can put them to sleep and wait for them

The problem with watching them sleep is they don't get the rest they need to replenish the energy ^^ Basically, imagine someone hovering over you watching you sleep LOL

They do look so cute when they're sleeping though

Yes they do I am having allot of fun and as of yesterday evening my dad in my first family hit 42 I am so interested in seeing how things go LOL
