How to Find Snow Globes in The Sims 4
There are so many collections to find in the game and the sims 4 snow globes collection is a fun one.
This collection comes from The Sims 4: City Living and will have your sim searching boxes on the ground for fun Snow Globes.
How to Find Snow Globes in The Sims 4
There are a few ways to get snow globes in the game, you can search for them, buy them at the flea market or get them at specific festivals.
Searching Boxes for Snow Globes
Snow Globes are found by searching around in little cardboard boxes that appear in every neighbourhood in San Myshuno. These boxes look like someone was moving and threw some junk away and when you click it you have the option to look for snow globes.
When you click this your sim will bend down and start searching through the box. If they find a snow globe your sim will get a notification that says “From the dusty depths of the Free Box, Your Sim has recovered *Snow Globe Name.*”
When you find these you’ll see them appear in your sim’s inventory and you’re one step closer to completing this collection. You won’t always get a snow globe, for example, my sim has gotten a little Robot named Bleep instead.
Getting Snow Globes at Festivals
One huge part of City Living is festivals and it feels like there is always a festival happening. You’ll be able to get four of them at festivals which is awesome.
| Festival | Snow Globe |
|---|---|
| Romance Festival | Newcrest Snow Globe |
| Geek Con | Emily Snow Globe |
| Spice Festival | Freezer Bunny Snow Globe |
| Humour & Hijinks Festival | The City Skyscraper Snow Globe |
When at the festival you’ll purchase them at one of the stands that appear. You’ll click on the t-shirt and swag stand and choose to buy swag and you’ll be able to purchase the specific snow globe for that event.
Getting Snow Globes at The Flea Market
The Flea Market is a festival that happens every Sunday from 10AM to 6PM and allows your sim to purchase used items from other sims for discounted prices. You’ll find this festival in the Spice Market neighbourhood and you can find it in the calendar and use the information page to travel there easily.
During the flea market you’ll see boxes to search and can sometimes see snow globes for sale on marketplace tables.

Reward for Collection Completion
When you find the very last sims 4 snow globe for the collection you’ll get a notification that says “Congratulations! You’ve found every snow globe this city has to offer. These should go perfectly next to your collection of decorative eggs and space rocks!”
Once you get this notification if you go into build mode and into your sim’s household inventory you’ll find a new item. The “Around The Globe” plaque will be there to add to your wall in your house to celebrate your accomplishment.
The description on this says “Searching dingy, free side-walk boxes for these treasures is hard work! For your Sim’s time and effort, you have earned a plaque to proudly display with the snow globes found. Hopefully they were washed thoroughly before displaying.”
There is nothing more satisfying than having a successful family lineage that has finished many collections and has a hallway with all of these adorable plaques!
Getting Snow Globes With Cheats
One of the best cheats in the game is the debug cheat that lets you find everything that you could ever need. If you want to use this you’ll need to first enable your cheats by using testingcheats true and then type in bb.showhiddenobjects and when you do this you can find new things in the build catalog.
If you go into build and search for the word snow you’ll be able to find all fifteen snow globes to decorate your home with.
Pro Tip: If you have the UI Cheats Extension mod installed in your game you’re even able to spawn them from the collections menu which is even easier than using debug!
