Activity table

The Activity Table is a toy for toddlers and children that was introduced in The Sims 2: FreeTime and The Sims 3. Up to four Sims can play at it, provided they all have room to get to it.

Teeny Tykes Activity Table
Toddlers and children can play with blocks, which builds Mechanical skill and Tinkering enthusiasm; or they can draw, which builds Creativity skill and Arts and Crafts enthusiasm. Children and older Sims can clean it up, which adds a small amount of Cleaning skill, but often reduces Fun.

Toddlers can build relationships with one another by playing together at the table, but this will be slow unless both have learned to talk.

Genesis Building Blocks
A similar toy to the The Sims 2 version is the Genesis Building Blocks. It looks much the same as the Teeny Tykes Activity Table, and also costs §200. However, it only allows toddlers and children to play with blocks. Children can build the Handiness skill by playing with it.
