Rabbit Head Obsession

[They SHOULD be using it, it builds skillz. Unless you have career rewards, there is no other way to gain charisma, since children cannot use the mirror later.
I'm with Pescado on this and immediately focus my toddlers on building charisma skills. I think they can build the skill faster at that stage than at any other. I go for a minimum of six points and aim towards eight, plus at least four or five in creativity and logic.
My toddlers never leave their rooms. I maintain at least four bottles of SmartMilk in their inventories so they can wake up, pee, have a bottle, and get to work. Skill, damnit! Skill!

Yup. My toddlers rarely get anything but the rabbit head. Charisma is boring to skill on (and a little creepy, talking to yourself at the mirror when there are others in the house). The rabbit head is also a safe toy for a shared bedroom...despite how loud it is to us, it doesn't wake up others from their sleep like the xylophone does.

Is anyone else noticing since installing Bon Voyage that toddlers are seriously obsessed with that damned rabbit head? As soon as they wake up they go straight for it, and when you make another sim try to interact with them the action drops out of cue. So in order to train my toddlers I have to cancel the toddler's play with rabbit action and quickly make the parent interact with the kid or else they damn things will play with the rabbit head until they pass out.
I wasn't aware this was a post-BV thing. They SHOULD be using it, it builds skillz. Unless you have career rewards, there is no other way to gain charisma, since children cannot use the mirror later.
Thats why I only give them the rabbit head, because charisma is a crappy thing to make them learn later on in life. Only the obsession is so bad I actually had to delete the toys to teach them to walk/talk/potty and to feed them, put them to sleep and all that other crap. I'd cancel the action on the toddler and as soon as I did they cued it right up again and went back to playing with it.

I've never tried it, but can kids talk to parrots? That builds charisma, too (and make more sense than talking to a mirror).

Yes, the parrot must be taught to talk by an adult, but after it has learned a child can build charisma by talking to it.
