After more requests for this than I can count, I finally gave in. Here's is a functional playpen for sim-toddlers. That'll keep them out of the toilet!
- As long as your toddler's stats are reasonably high, he or she will sit
happily in the playpen, apparently enjoying the general ambience.
- The pen is inescapable. It doesn't matter if your toddler can break out of
his crib, he's staying in here.
- While toddlers can sleep in their playpen, they don't like it! They won't
sleep unless they're absolutely exhausted, they'll whinge about it first, and
even when they're asleep you shouldn't expect it to last long. He or she should
wake up again when fatigue gets back to around -20.
Known issues:
There is a slight jump in the animations for putting in and getting out the
toddlers. I tried several different in-game animations for this process, and
this is the least disruptive one I could find. It's not really a concerning
jump, just a tiny little one.

Special thanks to my two beta-testers, Aenene and Mardilise, who were very helpful in confirming that it would run both with and without the EP, as well as the entire MTS2 community, particularly those involved in the development of SimPE and the Sims Mesh tool.
