Singing

Singing is a skill in The Sims 4: City Living which determines how good a Sim is at singing songs.
Although this skill is vastly different from other musical equipments, singing is treated as an instrument skill (along with guitar, piano, violin and pipe organ). This has been further evidenced when tracking the Musical Genius aspiration, as singing also accounted as a musical instrument.
==Learning==
Singing skill is available for Sims aged child and older. Children can learn this skill upon mastering their Creativity fundamental. Ways to build this skill are:
* Using karaoke machines.
* Singing while playing a Piano.
* Singing while playing a Guitar.
* Singing with a microphone.
* Singing in the shower.
* Performing the "Practice Singing" self-interaction.
