Life inThe Sims 4can be a breeze, or it can be super hectic, depending on what you want to achieve. If you want to climb the corporate ladder, have a successful lineage, be the smartest Sim of the bunch, or become a millionaire, you will need to get your Sims in gear.
For the little ones in the household, this hustle also starts early; your toddlers have fundamental skills you need to work on if you want them to become the very best version of themselves. Get a move on, in quite a literal sense, by helping your toddler learn the Movement skill.
