You can only have two children, one male and one female. The gender of the first child is random, and the gender of the second child is the opposite of the first child. Children never grow up past the Toddler stage (Stage 4). You will have the option to acquire a second child only after the first child has grown to the Toddler stage.

Once children are able to walk, [[hats]] can be placed on their heads.  

Once children are able to walk, [[hats]] can be placed on their heads.  To remove a hat from a child's head, select another hat in inventory and click on the child.  The new hat will be retained in inventory, and the child's hat will be removed.

Finally, the baby will enter the toddler stage for the rest of its life. It will start sleeping in one of the beds in the nursery, freeing the crib for another child (if you do not already have two children).

==Dismissing Children==

Children can be dismissed late game by interacting with a dark shrine inside the [[Witch's Hut]]. By offering the shrine a [[Prismatic Shard]] it will allow players to turn children into doves, making them leave the farm forever.  Once dismissed, children are gone for good and cannot be returned.  Note, however, that this will open up the possibility of your spouse asking if you want to have children again.

On the [[Farm Maps|Four-Corners Farm]]:  Instead of watching TV, players may catch an Ancient Doll while fishing.

If the player has turned their children into doves, a new subplot unlocks. To view the subplot, check the television on Fall 26. After that, by visiting the [[Witch’s Hut]], a recurring effect can be viewed; by [[fishing]] on the [[Farm Maps|Four Corners Farm Map]], a one-time effect can be experienced.

Note:  Killing this doll counts toward the [[Adventurer's Guild#Monster Eradication Goals|Monster Eradication goal]] of killing 200 bats.}}
