    Can anyone please provide a list of the toddler books and which skills are associated with each book when read? Thanks.

      Wow. I really haven't been paying attention. I had no idea books raised toddler skills.

      May have something to do with me never having my sims read to their children. Never. I like to promote illiteracy in my game.

      Toddlers can read books themselves.

      Yes, toddler books appeal much more once you realise that the tots can read them alone. Just put them out and if the toddler reads it once, they have learned what they need to out of the book.

      No freakin' way! Toddlers can read now?! Can they fly too?

      Writing
      Bluish Eggs with a Side of Pastrami
      Frank I'm Not
      Oh the Destinations You'll Briefly Visit

      Logic
      Counting for Those Who Cannot
      Squares Are Not Triangles
      Being Smart for Fun and Profit

      Painting
      Finger Painting 101
      Handprints of the Masters
      Don't Stay Within the Lines

      The titles make it pretty obvious what the books teach.

      Thanks. So only writing, logic, and painting. For the most part the titles are obvious, but not all. For instance, Bluish Eggs with a side of pastrami seems to me like it would be cooking. Frank I'm not...well who knows. Same with the destinations. I agree the others are obvious.

      Yes, babies can read.

      I find they get through the books faster if they read with a parent or teen sibling. It is cool how they jump 3 skill levels when they start doing a task like painting or writing because they read the books.
      Nothing to see. I don't even care about the forums.

      One of my favorite memories with my kids when they were little was reading them the Dr. Seuss books referenced with the first three:

      Green Eggs and Ham
      Sam I Am
      Oh the Place You'll Go (my favorite with a good life lesson as a bonus)
