    Short mod description:
    - changes head size of tk children so it looks more proportional
    - works with ALL DLC, but requires NONE
    - place bellow all tk children plugins

    Does not include any files from tk children, though its meant to be used with that mod.

    Not meant to work with vanilla children. If you do and you think stuff looks weird, not my problem, it was made for TK children.

    If you have to many plugins use TES5 edit merge script. I will not do it so I won't have any authorship problems in the future.

    I don't know how to edit morhp files. If you think you want some visual change on children go on mod page for TK children. I did not make that mod, in fact i have nothing to do with it.

    If you think children heads should be bigger or smaller you can say that here.

    Great mod. I find TK Children to be most realistic of all children overhauls and cant play without it. Endorsed.

    If you are using Wet and Cold you need the compatibility patches that you can find here:
    http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/62012/?tab=1&navtag=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nexusmods.com%2Fskyrim%2Fajax%2Fmoddescription%2F%3Fid%3D62012%26preview%3D&pUp=1

    This is my download list:

    TK Children
    TK Children bigger head - TK ChildrenHeadFix
    Wet and Cold (including the head mesh option)

    Whit this I had some clipping issues between Wet and Cold hats and TK Children in rain/show so I downloaded the 2 files from the link:

    Wet and Cold TK Children Bigger head patch
    Wet and Cold TK Children compatibility patch

    And now everything works.

      I know this is a tad late for a reply, but I have to say thank you. I was looking specifically for a Wet and Cold compatibility, and thanks to this post, I didn't have to search far at all. So, thank you :)

    Is there a simple way to scale up or down the head mesh of a custom NPC?

      That's because it was meant to be used with TK Children, so why would you have vanilla children with huge heads if you're using that?

      @ faeriexdecay

      "vanilla" children, in this case, children added by other mods (ETAC, InconNPC's) that aren't TK modified.

      Well that's not really the fault or responsibility of this mod or TK Children, and you'd need to ask those other mod authors for patches.

    The children, comparing with adults have bigger heads on their bodies, it's normal, if you don't believe me look at children's and see that I am wright . Eventual measure their heads comparing with yours and see that is almost no difference , first thing that is developing to a child is the head and then the body matures ...

    But the modding leave the players with the choice to make all the changes thy want

      The head of a child is the same size as a adult head.
      Therefore the childs head is bigger in comparison.

      Yet I fail to understand what it has to do with anything related to this mod, considering it is explaing what I have done in the mod, or what??

      Yes, it's what your mod does very well. =)
      Haven't tested it yet but I will now. And I'll take a look at the head size.
      If their heads are bigger than adults it's incorrect, if not it's perfect.

      That's actually not true. Yes, speaking in proportions, Children have larger heads than adults, compared to their body size. The child's skull grows most until the age of about 14, and grows a bit slower until 17. But even after that growth phase, the skull still develops.

      Imagine a child's head being the same size as an adult's. That would mean that either it was born that way (sounds uncomfortable for the mother, even with the still malleable skull of babies), or experienced a sudden, very fast growth boost to their skulls - which is a rather funny thing to think of, kind of like something you'd see in an old slapstick cartoon, like Tom and Jerry.

      So yeah, children's skulls are smaller than an adult's (just try on a child's bicycle helmet, and you'll see what I mean. Of course there are variations. Smaller adults also have smaller skulls, but still in adult proportions to their body. Some small people can wear children's helmets), even though in proportion to their bodies, they have a larger head.

      Here's a nice comparison image from a company that makes display skeletons for labs and schools:

      This mod definitely does the right thing, the heads are much too small in the vanilla game. Even if
