It may be a very difficult thing you are after, I heard or read something a few years ago regarding 2D cutouts of kids being illegal or dodgy at least due to some child protection act, especially I'd guess kids in bathing suits.

Best is to find some 3D kids, maybe try Daz, create the poses and export them lowish poly.

I believe it was one of Lumion's representatives who said so, explaining why their provider of reference photos does not carry photos of children.

So I ended up recycling the same two models with different colors.

One thing I have done with a lot of 3D people, including FF, in addition to changing hair color and clothes color, is to isolate arms and legs as groups. You can then position the legs for the appearance of running, You then have to rejoin the anatomy together,which sometimes takes awhile to get it looking just right. An upraised arm to do as a wave, both arms to hang from something, both legs straight out to be going down a slide, etc. I have developed files of accessories which are easy to add to people, IE: sunglasses, purses, backpacks, umbrellas, etc. These are good to do in your spare time, and helps to build up your collection, so you don't repeat so often. I also have grouped heads and replaced them on other bodies for different looks.

What is so great about Alan's people on FF is they are so low poly and look so good, espeically the more recent ones. It is easy to make them get too large in file size. Just some possibilities.

Thanks everyone. I already delivered that animation, but it's good to be on the lookout for new solutions. I also noticed that Got3D does have a collection of children cutouts that could be useful for still images.

Pete it really has become a SAD world - here in Aust you can't even take photos at the beach any more!

No luck here either for photo real children.
Take a look at this site for really good drawn quality and some SU kids.

Dosch Design has some 3d and a little 2d too.

Hope this helps a little.

I Have noticed recently that Alan has posted some new children in swim suits, etc. I think 4 boys and 4 girls.

I too am working on a similar project for a local spray park and am having a very difficult time finding models of kids for the scene. JSmith, could you please link to the models you had mentioned in your above post?

Thanks,
Jason
