Here an idea that i think it can be nice to implement. It will be nice to include the birthday of our character too, with a surprise party (or a normal one) with that willagers that we have X afinity (hearts). We just should to chose a birth day in one of the four season when we create our character. Thnks for your work! 

, all villagers have a birthday and we haven't, so it would be like a "reward" for our time to give them gifts and know them and their lifes and, yeah, a nice time to give us gifts too
or just to congratulate us.
