The Sims 4 has various life stages you can play through, from childhood to adulthood. Childhood is the first phase, where children have various skills they can develop. Although they lose these skills while transitioning to teenagers, they’re quite helpful in giving them a leg up as they grow. One such skill is the Creativity Skill, which, when developed, ensures your child lives a healthy and happy life. Building a Child’s Creativity Skill in The Sims 4 can be confusing, but this step-by-step guide details the process.

To build your Sims Child Creativity Skill, you can do the following:

Creativity Skill

How to Develop

Artistic Prodigy aspiration

Give your toddler the Artistic Prodigy aspiration to help you select activities and long-term goals that improve their artistic greatness. It’s ideal to begin when they’re toddlers to help them get started on their creative journey.

Draw at the Art Table

Buy your child an art table where they can draw and color various items. When they get better at drawing, they will unlock new illustrations.

Play with the Dollhouse

The dollhouse allows your child to engage in imaginative play and storytelling, developing their Creativity Skills. They can play alone or with another kid.

Play with Dolls

This also builds your Child’s storytelling and imaginative skills. There are plenty of dolls to choose from, including a Chompy doll or a Llamacorn doll.

Play the Piano or Violin

Children who are into music can play with the child-sized violin and piano to develop their musical ability.

Use Imaginative Socials

Your child can use imaginative social on other sims to build their creativity skills.

Tell stories or talk about creative subjects

Your Sims Child can tell stories or discuss creative subjects like art to develop their skills.
