At first, it was believed that [[toddler]]s could gain Body skill from singing the Nursery Rhyme{{Vgversion|TS2:FT}} after learning it. However, this was due to a glitch which caused the wrong pop-up message to appear when a skill point was gained. This was corrected in the [[The Sims 2: FreeTime/patch|''FreeTime'' patch]], though it does not appear in the patch notes.
