Line 16:
In ''[[The Sims 2]]'', toddlers do not need to learn these skills to grow up well, as that depends on the level of the toddler's [[aspiration bar]] when he or she grows up. In fact, [[PlantSim]] toddlers{{vgversion|TS2:S}} start out with all three basic skills already learned. However, toddlers will often roll high-value [[Wants and Fears|wants]] to learn each of their three basic skills, so learning them can help a toddler grow up well. Teaching these skills can also be high-value wants for parents, especially those with the [[Family (aspiration)|Family]] or [[Knowledge]] aspirations. With ''[[FreeTime]]'', learning the toddler skills gives the toddler [[Aspiration bar#Lifetime Aspiration|lifetime aspiration]] points. A toddler will form a positive memory of learning the skill from whichever Sim did the last bit of teaching before the skill was learned, and that Sim will get a positive memory of having taught the skill. Not learning the three basic skills will not have any negative effect on a Sim's later life.
''FreeTime'' also adds the Nursery Rhyme skill, which, unlike the three basic skills, can be taught by children as well as by older Sims. Learning this skill enables the toddler to sing the Nursery Rhyme, which will raise [[Music and Dance]] enthusiasm and Charisma skill. Unlike other toddler skills in ''The Sims 2'', the toddler will not get a memory of learning the Nursery Rhyme, but the older Sim will get a memory of having taught it. Also, while the toddler will not gain lifetime aspiration points for learning the Nursery Rhyme, learning it and teaching can be significant wants for toddlers and parents. Also, toddlers who have learned the Nursery Rhyme will frequently roll 500-point wants to sing it with a parent, and 500 points is significant for a toddler. This can be particularly important to PlantSim toddlers, as they do not start out with this skill.
The [[Pasteur's HomoGenius Smart Milk|Smart Milk]] [[Aspiration reward (The Sims 2)|aspiration reward]] will make toddlers learn skills faster. If the ''[[The Sims 2: Seasons|Seasons]]'' expansion is installed, toddlers will learn skills faster in the fall. If the Sim doing the teaching is wearing a [[Thinking Cap]], the toddler will learn faster.
