Toddlers bring joy to many Sims players, but they can also be difficult to handle! Cut yourself and your sim parents a break and make the job easier with Toddlers Cheats.

Family gameplay is a huge aspect of The Sims 4 community, to the point that people were aghast when the game originally launched without Toddlers. Though it took a couple of years, EA finally got the hint and added the Toddler life state at the beginning of 2017.
As lovable as Toddlers can be though, much like their real-life counterparts they are not easy to handle. They have wants & needs like their older family members but far fewer means to tend to them, not to mention so many skills to learn and experiences to have as they grow! Depending on how you like to play and how large a household is, trying to keep your Toddler appeased can feel like an almost impossible feat. Thankfully we have a solution for our sims—cheats. While Toddlers IRL have to be handled the old-fashioned way, our sim parents can get a much-needed hand by way of Toddlers cheats!
Cheating Your Way to a Content Toddler
It doesn’t matter if you’re trying to keep your Toddler’s basic needs filled, looking to advance their skills, or just trying to get them in a better mood; there’s likely a cheat you can use to achieve it.
Toddlers Cheats: Filling Needs
At a minimum, if you want your sims to grow up properly their needs should be well-maintained. Cheating those needs can make things much easier for you, so you can focus on developing their skills and personalities while juggling the remaining household members.
After you’ve activated TestingCheats and selected your Toddler as the Active sim, enter the needed toddlers cheats:
Need | Toddlers Cheats |
Bladder | fillmotive motive_bladder |
Hunger | fillmotive motive_hunger |
Energy | fillmotive motive_energy |
Fun | fillmotive motive_fun |
Attention | fillmotive motive_attention |
Hygiene | fillmotive motive_hygiene |
Fill All Needs | sims.fill_all_commodities |
Toddler Cheats: Skills
Once your Toddler’s needs are met, the next area you should focus on improving is their skills. Maxing out Toddler skills can grant beneficial Bonus Traits that will help them throughout their lives, so they’re really important to master!
The following cheats are written out to reach the max level of the associated Skill, but you can change them to whatever level you want by changing the final digit in the cheat to the desired level. Note that the Potty skill maxes out at level 3 unlike the other Toddler skills; if you try to set a skill to a level beyond its max the cheat won’t work.
Toddler Skill | Toddlers Cheats |
Communication | stats.set_skill_level statistic_skill_toddler_communication 5 |
Imagination | stats.set_skill_level statistic_skill_toddler_imagination 5 |
Movement | stats.set_skill_level statistic_skill_toddler_movement 5 |
Potty | stats.set_skill_level statistic_skill_toddler_potty 3 |
Thinking | stats.set_skill_level statistic_skill_toddler_thinking 5 |

Toddlers Cheats: Character Values & Traits
If you have The Sims 4 Parenthood pack, sims can learn Character Values that may shift & change over time, and once a sim reaches Young Adulthood they may earn traits based on where their Values lie.
Toddlers are still young and have barely grown into their character (let alone possessing values that align with that character), but you can get them started young by setting their manners. It’s never too early to learn basic courtesy, after all!
Character Value | Cheat |
Sim has Good Manners Trait | traits.equip_trait GoodManners |
Sim has Bad Manners Trait | traits.equip_trait BadManners |
You can also give your Toddlers a boost with Bonus Traits. These traits are typically rewarded when your Toddler reaches (or you cheat them to) specific skill levels, but you can skip all of the rigmarole and give them these Bonus Traits directly:
Bonus Trait | Cheat |
Happy Toddler – Reach level 3 in all Toddler Skills | traits.equip_trait trait_happy_toddler |
Top-Notch Toddler – Max all Toddler Skills | traits.equip_trait trait_top_notch_toddler |
Toddlers Cheats: Buffs
Now that our Toddler has all their needs met and their skills are maxed, it’s time to let loose a little! Use the following cheats to give your Toddlers buffs that will make them want to run around and play:
Buff | Cheat |
Energized Buff | sims.add_buff EnergizedHigh |
Playful Buff | sims.add_buff PlayfulHigh |
Clear sim of ALL Buffs | sims.remove_all_buffs |
Toddlers Cheats: Quirks
Quirks are like a temporary trait that your Toddler can develop independently, which can have varying degrees of effect on how your sim behaves. Unlike other cheats here that require specific codes to unlock, accessing Quirks takes only the TestingCheats cheat to activate.
In order to access these Quirks, SHIFT+Click in your Toddler, select Pack Cheats→Expansion Packs→Get Together→Toddler Quirks→Add Discoverable Quirk where you’ll be given a list of Quirks to choose from (there’s also an option to Remove Quirks if your Toddler already has some). There are 18 Quirks to choose from and you can have as many as you want.
Quirk | Effect |
Aggressive | Likes to play rough, bite, and kick regardless of mood |
Destructive | More likely to make messes & damage furniture |
Early Riser | Wakes up earlier than usual |
Good Appetite | Loves food and will eat off the floor, doesn’t care if food is spoiled |
Hates Bedtime | Less likely to sleep through the night & will try to distract their caregivers to delay bedtime |
Hates Being Carried | Can get grumpy if picked up |
Hates Wake Up Time | Likely to wake up in a bad mood |
Heavy Sleeper | Sleeps through noises & nightmares and tends to sleep better than most Toddlers |
Loves Being Carried | More likely to ask to be held, being held puts them in a good mood |
Loves Books | Likes to play with bookshelves, being read to, and other associated activities |
Loves Sounds | Sims will be more interested in noisy toys, TVs, and Stereos |
Loves Wake Up Time | Likely to wake up in a good mood |
Loves Water | These sims love baths, are more likely to play in toilets, and will seek out water-related activities |
Little Singer | Can sing to themselves |
Light Sleeper | Rarely sleep through the night & need attention before going back to sleep |
Messy Eater | More likely to make a mess while eating |
Picky Eater | Will throw food over eating it, harder to feed |
Wanderer | The kind of Toddler you can’t take your eyes off of as they’re likely to toddle away when put down |
