I've added Ghost Resurrecting to the list as that will become an hidden ability of your sim once they have achieved the oppertunity to resurrect one ghost. Logically, there are no levels in this skill.

With Pets there is a hidden 'Wildlife Skill' that lets you tame more difficult found pets (and may interact with the whole Unicorn bit)

The hidden Wildlife" skill has been proven to have no effect on interacting with a unicorn at all.

Are you planning on including the blocks skill for children? Also along those line is the peg box and Xylophone. Or are these just considered head starts on future skills?

All of those have 3 levels by the way.

Yes, I will add them as well. Thanks for noting that. :) I've found a source where I have even more information according to the hidden skills, but I will put a note after the ones I can not support myself.
As an example: the Air Guitar is a hidden trait (I can support that) but also a hidden skill, gradating between 0 and 10 points, just like normal skills. But as I have no idea how to train that, as I assume a sim can train it, I have to note that as well, untill the time someone will point here more specific information.

Leto, it's very useful list. About Snake charming, I'm not shure on which level is this possible, but suddenly there appears the option which says something like  "wear like Sim x". The Sim thinks the snake is under her or his wordrobe and runs around like crazy. I saw this in Photo tournament, hope it helps...cheers

Really? That is very cool.
My sim is at level 10 at Snake Charming, but I've never encountered that option. Must be something pretty rare.

I'll try to help:

Peg Box: This skill goes up to level 3 and only toddlers can have this skill. When the toddler ages into child, they will start their logic skill level at the same level as this skill has achieved.

Xylophone: This skill goes up to level 3 and only toddlers can have this skill. When they age into Teens, they will start their Guitar skill level same as this skill level acquired. If the Late Night expansion pack is installed, then the Bass, Piano, and Drum skills will also be raised.

Collecting: The skill goes up to level 10. Sims will get a better chance when capturing a bug or insect and finding a gem or rock.

Mooch: A Sim with the Mooch trait can just mooch off of his or her neighbors. This skill goes up to a level of 10. Sims with the Mooch Trait can beg for money and food from Sims around them. The higher the Sim's Mooching skill, the more likely they will be able to mooch large quantities of money. It is harder to mooch from Sims with the Frugal trait.

Consignment (Ambitions): The skill goes up to level 10. As Sims sell objects in the consignment store their consignment skill also increases, allowing them to sell objects for great returns.

Child Cooking: Only child can get this skill. This skill goes up to level 3 and when the child aged into teen, they will start their Cooking skill level same as this skill level acquired.

Child Athletic (Generations): The Athletic skill is not available again for child sim since generations, this skill is replaced by a Child Athletic secret skill that earned when they working out. This skill goes up to level 3 and when the child aged into teen, they will start their Athletic level same as this skill level accuired.

Child Guitar (Generations): Only child can get this skill, This skill goes up to level 3 and when the child aged into teen, they will start their Guitar skill level same as this skill level acquired.

Child Bass (Generations + Late Night): Only child can get this skill. This skill goes up to level 3 and when the child aged into teen, they will start their Bass skill level same as this skill level acquired.

Child Drum (Generations + Late Night): Only child can get this skill. This skill goes up to level 3 and when the child aged into teen, they will start their Drum skill level same as this skill level acquired.

Child Piano (Generations + Late Night): Only child can get this skill. This skill goes up to level 3 and when the child aged into teen, they will start their Piano skill level same as this skill level acquired.

You need to add Club Dancing (3 levels) and Wildlife (6 levels) too.

I've seen another hidden skill called "Band" or "Rock Band", but I don't know how it works. It's only 1 level:

  <Hex>RockBand</Hex>

  <DreamsAndPromisesIcon>hud_band_skill_s</DreamsAndPromisesIcon>
  <IconKey>hud_band_skill_s</IconKey>
  <SkillUIIcon>skillobjectband</SkillUIIcon>

<kVenuesPlayedForLifetimeOpp value="10" />
    <kMoneyMadeForLifetimeOpp value="25000" />
    <kTipMultiplierForStar value="1.5" />

And you can see a hidden skill called "Rubble Clearing" in the wikia, but I think is not in the game.
Sorry for my English.

Won't 'Rubble Clearing' be a World Adventures hidden skill? I know after clearing a certain amount your sim does get faster at it- perhaps this is a hidden skill, too?

It is. After clearing 10 rubble parts your sim will dick them through wat is it... 30% faster or so? It got noted in the Adventure Skills journal though.
Though, for some odd reason, eventhough we can actually see the progress of the skill once it is maxed (not in the meanwhile) this skill is described as hidden.

My children only seem to get the Child Athletic skill from playing hopscotch. They never get any skill from working out with the radio.
