Talk:Child: Difference between revisions

I wanted to get the facts straight before editing this. I'll be trying to get the facts about skills together in this post.

Children in the Sims 4 have a completely different skill set from older Sims. In short, all skill related things children do will build 1 of 4 broad skill sets listed below.

Social- Improves the child's ability to communicate with others. Like Charisma, the Social skill is build by socializing with others. It can also be improved by taking to certain toys. Children with higher social skills will have an easier time making friends and will also unlock new interactions.

Motor- Represents the child's strength, dexterity, and coordination. Most physical activities will improve a child's Motor skills (it can also be improved by learning to type on the computer). Children with higher motor skills with demonstrate better agility on the playground (such as hanging upside down from the monkey bars).

Mental- Represents the child's intelligence. Improved by doing such mental task as playing with the chemistry set, doing extra credit for school, or practicing chess. Children with higher Mental skills will act smarter and complete their homework a little faster.

Creativity- Represents the size of the child's imagination and their capacity to create artistic works. Improved by playing with dolls/action figures, drawing on the children's art table, and practicing the piano and violin. Children with high creativity will draw better drawings, and unlock new interaction relating to their imagination.

A child's skills are also needed to get "promoted" in school to a higher grade level (I don't mean like from the 3rd grade to the 4th grade, I mean from a C student to a B student). In order to become a B student, children must get 2 of their skills to level 4, and to become an A student, child must get all 4 of their skills to level 4.
