Line 5:
}}'''Secret''' or '''hidden skills''' are skills that a Sim can gain with practice but will not appear in the interface. [[Cleaning]] is a secret skill in ''[[The Sims]]''. There are several secret skills in ''[[The Sims 2]]'', ''[[The Sims 3]]'', and ''[[The Sims 4]]''.
 
== The Sims ==
;[[Cleaning]]
:In ''[[The Sims]]'', Cleaning is a hidden skill that's mostly used by the [[Maid#The Sims|maid]], community lot [[NPC#The Sims|janitors]], [[Servo#The Sims|Servo]] and [[Bonehilda]]. All playable Sims and [[Townie#The Sims|Townies]] have Cleaning skill, even if it's zero. However, the skill doesn't appear in the Control Panel. It cannot be changed or improved within the game, unless Sims use an object that has been hacked to affect Cleaning. Some third-party character-editing programs may allow the player to edit a Sim's Cleaning skill.
 
== The Sims 2 ==
;Study
:If a household member who is a [[teen]] or older offers or is asked to help with a [[child]]'s or teen's [[homework]], that Sim will be able to learn how to study. This usually takes one homework session, and the child/teen being helped and the helper will each get a memory when it is completed. Then, the child or teen Sim will be able to complete homework much quicker. [[Young adult]]s who have not learned this skill can learn it if they are given help with [[College (sub-neighborhood)|college]] [[Class performance#Assignments and term papers|assignments]], but the skill does not appear to affect the time needed to complete assignments.
Line 52:
:The more blueprints a Sim drafts on the [[Career rewards#SIM series Drafting Table|SIM series Drafting Table]], the more they will be worth.
 
== The Sims 3 ==
;Learn to Walk
:This skill only has one level and only toddlers can have this skill. A teen or older can teach a toddler how to walk. After this hidden skill is learned the toddler can walk around instead of crawl.
Line 350:
This skill goes up to level 3. Children and older can learn this skill.
 
== The Sims 4 ==
;Reaping
This skill was present at the game's launch, but was removed in an unknown patch. It went up to level 10, and it was maxed out in every generated [[Grim Reaper]]. It had no known purpose.<ref name="Reaping skill">https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/781642/so-looks-like-we-have-a-hidden-reaping-skill</ref><ref name="Reaping skill removed">https://www.reddit.com/r/thesims/comments/53tiw0/sims_4_reaping_skill_gone/</ref>

==Trivia==
*The xylophone and all child music skills are counted separately. For example, a Sim who maximizes the xylophone and all child music skills, will start at level 3 on guitar, bass, piano, and drum when he or she becomes a teen.{{Vgversion|TS3}}
 
*''The Sims 4'' was originally thought to have no hidden skills, but datamining proves that it does. {{fact}}
