I’m trying to use my cliff construction permit to build a path over the river to my campsite but it’s not letting me. Is there a way I can do that or do i have to use a bridge?

I have AuDHD, and whenever i get overwhelmed I tend to just: go into my own space, sit on the floor/ground, rock back and forth, put my hands over my ears, hit the sides of my head, make humming sounds, rub my hands on the ground, and cry (or get close to it). I’m not sure if this would be a meltdown or shutdown, or maybe if bit of both (what would that be called)?

Sorry this is kind of long :)

Yesterday I was at my cousin’s wedding reception and was having a great time (there was around 300 people there but it didn’t really feel like it). I brought my ANC hearing aid earbuds since i’m severely noise sensitive and they helped a lot. I was dancing (mostly just stimming: jumping, flapping my arms, rocking, that looked like dancing) a lot (I love music) and by the end was the only one on the dance floor and stayed there pretty much all night, even if i was by myself. Some small groups of his friends would join me occasionally but they know i’m autistic so included me while also giving me space. On the last few songs, my cousin came up and the DJ let him wear the headphones and DJ the last few songs. Suddenly almost all his friends showed up and there was a crowd right around where I was dancing. My brain got SUPER fuzzy (my word for overwhelmed and overstimulated) and I went and sat down next to the DJ booth and started having a meltdown (rocking, putting my hands over my ears, crying, rubbing my hands on the carpet). My cousin (the sister of the one who’s party it was) came to check on me, but the best thing for me was when one of his friends came over, apparently he works with autistic people and knew exactly what to do to be with me: sat/crouched on the floor by me, still being close while not touching me, talked calmly, no expectations, let me respond how I wanted, gave me his hand to squeeze, didn’t force me to leave when i said no to him asking me to go outside (I felt like I couldn’t walk), which was SO nice.

Has this happened to anyone before? One minute, being totally fine and able to handle stimulation and the next minute, having a full on meltdown becuase you suddenly got overstimulated? Why does this happen?

At school, one of my classes is creating fidget/self care pouches for us to take home with us. We went to the Dollar Tree to grab pouches and items, but i realized once we made them that the pouch i selected was too small to hold all my things (I have stuff we bought at the store and i’m adding things from home), so i’ll need to buy a much larger but still compact pouch to hold everything. Currently i have bought a large pouch on Amazon that might work but wondering if anyone has any recommendations for a large but compact pouch, or more specifically a brand you like, and I don’t want to be to expensive (the one i found on Amazon is 12.99)

Thanks for your help!

Does anyone know of any playful simple hopscotch designs I could copy? I’m trying to create a hopscotch for my kidcore island playground. This is my first time doing a themed island, I don’t have Nintendo Online so i’d have to create the designs myself. PLEASE HELP!

This is my first time having an island with a theme and i’m wanting a kidcore island. my island is called Honah Lee.

I currently have a neighborhood area, small farm by the beach, a small beach play area in front of my neighborhood, a science lab at the back of my neighborhood (for my boy Graham), beach workout area (for Roald, my resident jock), a fossil excavation site above my museum, and am in the process of creating a playground which also acts as the entrance to my neighborhood area. And my house is on the second level above the neighborhood.

I also want to build a plaza area in front of resident services with the plaza decorations and maybe an arcade area, but don’t know what other kinds of areas i should have.

My neighborhood, shopping area, museum, and campsite are all on separate islands, connected to the main one by bridges, so they’ll all have their own little area builds/designs.

The villagers I currently have are kind of separated into two categories: 1. ones that are never leaving (Papi, Graham, Stitches, Simon, Roald), and ones that are living on my island temporarily (Zucker, Bea, Rex, Cube, Sheldon).

I have a long list of dreamies but idk which would be best for a kidcore island. They are: Derwin, Beau, Sherb, Broccolo, Doc, Filbert, Hugh, Walker, Spork, Henry, Deli, Pudge, Dizzy, Jacob, June, Weber, Molly, Hornsby, and Hopkins

So after that long explanation i have 7 questions:

1. How do i get road/path designs or other things without Nintendo Online? Do I custom make them myself?
2. What other kidcore areas should i make on my island, besides the ones I already have/are wanting to make?
3. Which of my dreamies would work best on a kidcore island? Are there are not on my that you would recommend for a kidcore island/are there any on the list that wouldn’t fit the theme?
4. should i let go of any villagers in my never leaving category and replace them with dreamies (just need an opinion on this one)?
5. Which personality types work best on kidcore islands? (My favorites are lazy, smug, and possibly normal)
6. How do i design my neighborhood when all the houses are very close together?
7. How do i design my shopping area, museum, and campsite in a kidcore theme?

On the second tier of my island, above the museum, I want to build some sort of archeological dig site. I tried digging it using the cliff terraforming but it didn’t work. Do i need the water terraforming to be able to do this? How does this work?

This is my first time playing an AC Game.

Currently about 7/10 of my villagers are lazies (I found that my favorites are lazy or smug). I have two jocks, but want to get rid of one (sorry Sheldon), and my 10th villager is a normal. I have 5 villagers that I want to keep (Papi, Graham, Stitches, Simon, and my one jock: Roald).

Most of my dreamies are either lazy or smug, and I think there’s one sisterly in there but i don’t remember.

I want to branch out on personality types but also want to get some of my dreamies on my island.
