Before saying 'It doesn't work' make sure you have the required mods & they are updated. children are old enough to be an NPC - LittleNPC config. Default 83 days, don't go less then 56.

this is on the description page, but people tend to ignore that for some reason. So here it is again.
LittleNPC does not work in Multiplayer.
I recommend turning child wander off in LittleNPC config because kids get lost at bus stop with it on sometimes.
Do Not put a space in your kids names. This will cause problems with the festivals. (LittleNPC 1.1.4 says the space problem is fixed. I have not tried it yet.)
There is a rare bug. The day after a festival a child will be removed by smapi to avoid a crash. You will need to go into your game saves folder and delete the newest one. This will make it so you play the festival day again, but the child is unlikely to be deleted again the next day.
Hello! Please forgive me if this was a mistake on my end, but after I installed this mod I get an TMXL Map Toolkit Error.
Technical details: StardewModdingAPI.Framework.Exceptions.SContentLoadException: The content manager failed loading content asset 'kidstreehouse.tmx' from SMAPI/xiddav.childtonpcforsvetreehouse. ---> System.Exception: Unable to load map with file path '/Users/(...)/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Stardew Valley/Contents/MacOS/Mods/[NPC] Xiddavs ChildtoNPC for SVE/[TMX]Xiddas ChildtoNPC Treehouse/kidstreehouse.tmx' ---> System.InvalidOperationException: There is an error in XML document (12, 5).
I double checked that I downloaded the latest version (including the latest version of ChildToNPC!) Consequently, several of the SVE locations failed to load at all.
Edit: I think I figured it out through another mod! I found out my problem was because I'm using a mac. I was missing a file called libMonoPosixHelper.dylib. 1) If you have it somewhere else on your computer, you can search for it and copy it into your StardewValley>Contents>MacOS folder. Make sure you copy it there, don't move it. 2) If you are like me and don't have it on your computer at all, you can download it from the site: www.mono-project.com. Download and install the package, and then you can search for libMonoPosixHelper.dylib and copy it into the same contents folder. This completely fixed the issue for me. I hope this helps! . . . I'm having the same problem as well. I have the updated version of everything it requires, yet this is still happening. I'm not sure why...
I had the same problem with another NPC mod and someone referenced a similar issue on some forum. From there, I just had to follow a bunch of different links and directions. I wasn't able to use this mod for two weeks until today. I figured I would tell you how to do it so that you didn't have to do what I did, or give up on the mod like I was going to. Glad I could help!
Oh, I didn't even think about the issues it could have with a mac. I'm a PC user after all ^.^|| sorry for not responding sooner as well. I went camping for my birthday at last minute so was away.
Hi! Do you know if libMonoPosixHelper.dylib is still needed for the Mac version? If so, do you know where I could get it? I tried downloading the Mono Project thing below but it won't install, and I can't seem to find it elsewhere. If anyone has a copy they could upload somewhere for me, I'd greatly appreciate it!
Nevermind, the thing finally installed after my like 12th try lol. Anyway, the path to find it after you install (since I had to search for that) is: Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/[whatever the most recent version number is]/lib.
Hi! I'm unable to find the config folder, I got the deluxe art edition and when I open it the only files are an assets and loads folder, content.json, and manifest.json. Is there something I'm doing wrong or something I can do? Thank you!
Hi, I've got one question, in the SMAPI console appears the following lines in loop, not only when i load my save. I think it happens every time I start a new day. Is it normal?

ChildToNPC 1.2.0 because it's no longer compatible Remove This! NPC The Farmer's Children 4.1.3-beta.2 because it requires mods which aren't installed (Xiddav.KidsTreeHouse). Get Kids Treehouse and all of it's requirements as well.
hi! I've downloaded all the mods required for this mod and updated the necessary ones but the child continues to be vanilla. before I downloaded the required mods, this mod seemed to be working and kept asking me to download the content pack but now it just doesn't work. maybe there's something wrong with the mods I downloaded...?
according to your errors, your Farmer's Children folder is empty. so is the kids treehouse, and littleNPC. Also a few others. delete all the folders it says are empty and download those mods again.
Looking through the log, LittleNPC isn't showing any toddler being converted to an NPC. So the toddler isn't old enough (a LittleNPC config option, default 83 days)... or you didn't open the save with children in it before closing your game to make this smapi log after 1 and a half minutes.
Does this mod have any compatibility issues? And can it be installed mid game? I am using Toddler like Parents as well will this affect the mod in any way?
it can be installed mid game. it is not compatible with other LittleNPC packs. Mods that change Toddlers will work with the Toddlers. If you have the art part of the mod (recommended) the LittleNPCs will not look like toddlers once they are old enough. If you don't have The Farmer's Children Art, the LittleNPCs will look like toddlers, but will have visual problems when animations that toddlers don't have come up in the schedual. Like the ball animation I have in the images.
Hi! Not sure if this has already been asked but if I have the poly mod and have more than two kids, is it only going to be the first two kids if I have more? Or can all of them?
Hi, sorry but I can't get LittleNPCs to find/realize the Farmer's Children file with all the schedules and etc.. It registers the art, but no matter what I do it treats everything as if it isn't installed at all. Any ideas on how to fix?
it's on the descriptions page. yes, but it could be weird. If the kids become NPC before you see all the events the wrong name and pronouns might get used in the event. you can increase the age that kids become LittleNPCs in LittleNPCs config to avoid the over lap. Things have changed with LittleNPC since I last tested it so not sure if the invisible talking toddler would still be a thing.

Again, I am not exactly an expert in regards to mods. Please go easy on me if this is something I basically did to myself!
I found out my problem was because I'm using a mac. I was missing a file called libMonoPosixHelper.dylib.
1) If you have it somewhere else on your computer, you can search for it and copy it into your StardewValley>Contents>MacOS folder. Make sure you copy it there, don't move it.

once I finish the diverse stardew versions, I will be done making art.
