Head Start Playpen is a skill object from The Sims 3 Store. It can be purchased for 648 SimPoints. It can also be purchased alongside the Tiny Prodigies Early Learning Center venue set. The object can be found in the hobbies & skills section under entertainment in buy mode.

The playpen can be used by up to two toddlers at the same time, and they need to be put in the playpen by another Sim before toddlers are able to use it. Using the mirror inside the playpen, toddlers can learn to talk on their own without the need of help from other Sims. After learning to talk, they have the ability to increase their charisma skill. Toddlers can also play with the abacus inside the playpen, which increases their logic skill. Toddlers inside can play with each other, and teen or older Sims can also play with the toddlers that are inside the playpen. Using the playpen on its own raises all the needs of the toddlers except social. If a toddler interacts with another toddler or with an older Sim, the social need also increases.
