Where do I find those tricks? Because admittedly i play on Long lifespan, so what you say is 7 days total is 27 for me. But I am on day 5 and most skills are 1 or 2, with only communication and potty at 3 or above. And I do nothing but grind skills.

They aren't listed any where, it's just things learned from here and there. I'll give you a run down.

Have a toddler queue up a ton of "watch" on an adult. This will quickly raise the thinking skill. When they get to level 4, and the "ask why" option shows up. Have them ask why. This gives a quick boost to Thinking.

For imagination, have an adult read to them. They can look books over on their own, but I found that it's quicker to have an adult read them the story. Also, if you just need them out of the way while parents are busy, you can have them play with the doll house, the outdoor equipment (playing pretend) but they won't boost as quickly as an adult reading to the toddler.

Communication. Get one of the large stuffed animals (unicorn, dog, cat, etc). And have them babble and/or talk to the stuffed animal. You can max communication in a matter of no time.

Potty, I haven't really found a fast trick for. Usually it is the last one I get maxed. But I don't worry about it much cause as long as I have them go potty everytime, they'll max it eventually.

Movement. Have them do the slide. That is a major boost to a toddlers movement skill. It's much like the stuffed animals with communication. You can max it in a matter of no time.


I grind out these skills, and the most it's taken me doing it this way is 3 sim days. Depending on how much time we can work on skills day one, I can get it done sooner.
