A '''life stage''' is the age of a [[Sim]]. Sims do not age continuously, day by day, year by year, but all at once, "jumping" to the next stage in life.
==
In ''[[The Sims]]'', there are only three stages: [[Baby#The Sims|baby]], [[Child#The Sims|child]], and [[Adult#The Sims|adult]].
Babies grow into children after 72 hours. Children do not grow up into adults, although the ''[[The Sims: Makin' Magic|Makin' Magic]]'' expansion allows magical children to grow up by using the Age of Instant [[

There are seven life stages in ''[[The Sims 2]]''.
* '''[[Baby#The Sims 2|Baby]]:''' (3 days)
* '''[[Toddler#The Sims 2|Toddler]]:''' (4 days)
* '''[[Child#The Sims 2|Child]]:''' (8 days)
* '''[[Teen#The Sims 2|Teen]]:''' (up to 15 days) Note:
* '''[[Young adult#The Sims 2|Young adult]]:'''{{Vgversion|TS2:U}} (varies; usually 24 days)
* '''[[Adult#The Sims 2|Adult]]:''' (29 days)
* '''[[Elder#The Sims 2|Elder]]:''' (varies;

As a household's game clock only runs when it is being played, each household's game clock runs independently from all others. Sims will not age, much less age up, automatically unless they are part of the household being played. This also means a playable Sim will not die off-screen.
== The Sims 3 ==▼
In ''[[The Sims 3]]'', the toddler stage is 3 days longer, while the child and teen stages are both 1 day shorter. In addition, elders will always live for a minimum of 16 days.▼
In ''[[The Sims 3]]'', by default, all households in the neighborhood observe the same game clock. This means that Sims not part of the active household but are due to age up will do so off-screen.

With [[The Sims 3/Patch 22|patch 22]], a new option enables players to adjust lifespan for each life stage. Some [[life state]]s have a lifespan multiplier that extends the ages in young adult and adult stages. For example, [[Vampire (The Sims 3)|vampires]] have 5x multiplier, which extends a Sim's age in young adult to 105 days in
A Vampire can live up to 9150 days (25 real years) with maximum settings, making it the longest survivable without [[cheats]] or [[Trait|traits]].
It is also possible to use a birthday cake to age up Sims. However, a Sim can only be aged up once per age. Players can also use the testingcheatsenabled true cheat, then shift+click a Sim, then click "trigger age transition". Players can do this as many times as they want, but doing this with elder Sims will kill them.▼

All played Sims who are not in the active household will age automatically off-screen, unless auto-age is switched off or to 'Only Active Household'.
Occasionally, a Sim may get an invitation over the phone from their friend living in a different household to attend their birthday [[party]], which can be up to several days before the latter Sim is actually due to age up. The former Sim may decline and the latter Sim will age up at the time they are due to do so.
Pregnancy will affect a Sims lifespan as they do not age until given birth.
When an elder's age meter gets filled up completely, it may take up to 48 hours for that elder to pass away. Elder Sims who have the "Active" or "Long Lived" traits will get additional time. Extra time can also be obtained with [[Cowplant|Cowplant essence]].
[[The Sims 4/Patch 50|Patch 50]] expanded the young adult and adult lifespans by 4 days each to accommodate the addition of toddlers.

''[[The Sims FreePlay]]'' has 6 stages. They are infant, toddler, preteen, teen, adult, and senior. Unless the player has unlocked the final stage of the quest "Life Dreams and Legacies", they will have to pay 5 life points to make a birthday cake in order to age their Sims up.
