Activity table

The activity table is a toy for toddlers and children included in The Sims 2: FreeTime and The Sims 3. Up to four Sims can play with it, provided they all have room to get to it. In The Sims 4, activity tables can only be used by one Sim at a time (except for the Buildems Blocks Play Table).

The Sims 2: FreeTime

Teeny Tikes Activity Table

Teeny Tikes Activity Table
A fun activity table for talented (and not so talented) teeny tikes. Up to four young ones can draw or play with blocks...fundamental skill building for adulthood. It's never to [sic] learn how to share, stack or size up the creative competition.

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. However, they will not be able to draw if all accessible drawing pads have completed drawings. Children and older Sims can clean the table up, which will put the blocks away and clear the drawing pads, or can scrap individual drawings. This adds a small amount of Cleaning skill, but often reduces Fun. In Buy or Build mode, the drawings can be picked up with the Hand tool, and can be hung on the wall.

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

Note

The activity table included with FreeTime is not recolorable, but a recolorable replacement for it, along with some recolors, can be found at Mod The Sims.

The Sims 3

Activity tables in The Sims 3 are very similar to the Teeny Tikes Activity Table, they look similar, and they all cost around §200. However, activity tables only allow toddlers and children to play with blocks. Children can build the Blocks secret skill by playing with them. When they grow up into teenagers, the Blocks secret skill will transfer into Handiness skill. The Blocks secret skill goes up to level 3.

Notes: This activity table is not available in buy mode, and can only be crafted using The Titanic Toy Machine from The Sims 3 Store. Once crafted, it can be sold for §200.

The Sims 4

Activity tables are reintroduced in the base game. The main difference to older games is that only one Sim can use them at a time, and that toddlers cannot interact with them. Children can use these tables to create various drawings and decorations that can be displayed on walls or sold. The Sims 4: Seasons adds season and holiday related crafts for children to draw. Using an activity table builds the creativity skill.

In addition to adding a regular activity table, The Sims 4: Parenthood also adds a play table that functions differently, where Sims play with blocks instead of draw. Playing with blocks builds the motor skill for children and the logic skill for older Sims. Even though it is categorized as a children's toy, older Sims can play with it without any children present.

Not only will this table bring countless hours of joy, skill building, and amusement to your kids, but it's actually something simple enough for you to put together in a single afternoon without you breaking down and loudly swearing in front of the little ones, destroying half the legs when trying to screw them on, or ultimately questioning your existence. And that is worth the asking price alone.

The object's in-game description says that it can only be used by toddlers (and that it builds their imagination skill). However, toddlers are unable to use the object until older Sims have finished building a structure on it. At that point, it functions much like a dollhouse.
