Most worthwhile expansions and stuff packs?
funkilla:
Children can use the teleprompter podium too, I believe, for charisma.
I can definitely live without pets. I ban strays and stuff, and I just got a werewolf for my supernatural experimenting hood (werewolfs, plantsims, zombies, servos, vampires, witches). I haven't played with the vacation lots, but I do like the extra career paths they bring. I get tired of having to choose between doctor, mayor, scientist, slacker, and athlete all the time. I like having the wide array of careers.
My essentials would be:
University, Nightlife, OFB, FT/AL
I can live without seasons or bon voyage and definitely Pets.

Kids can play with the podiums, but I don't think they get charisma from them while doing so. They do get charisma from the business reward (the putting green) though.
Faizah:
Kids certainly can gain charisma from the podiums. I have been using macro>charisma to get those last couple of points, and they get them just fine as children, with a podium in the house. (The current family has the base game politics podium, though the I-forget-what-EP legal career also has a podium as the reward.)
Kids have a 'Play' option, but they also have the same 'Practice speech' option as older Sims.
Kyna:
Going back to the point about kids & charisma & Pets: the caged parrot is the only buyable object that children can use to train charisma. Yes, they can use the career rewards for education, business, law, or politics to train it, but those aren't buyable objects.
jsalemi:
Interesting -- I've never had a kid gain charisma on the podium, only the putting green. I'll have to check that out now...
