I'll put down my method for finding rare children again here for you:

Windows
Go to C:/Program Files/Virtual Families and locate the Images folder.

Locate and open the bigheads00.png image, this will be our guide that we call the 'head chart' to find the children.

Mac
This only works if you did not purchase your game from BigFishGames.

Open finder and go to the Virtual Families folder, right click on the application icon and click Show Package Contents.

Open the Contents folder, then the Resources folder, and then the Images folder.

Locate and open the bigheads00.png image, this will be our guide that we call the 'head chart' to find the children.

Finding the Children

First look at the chart and number the heads vertically from 1-50. The black haired male and female at the top are number 1, and the rainbow and blue spiked hair are number 50.

Find out the number that the mother and father are in your game, add those two numbers together and divide it by two. Lets say the number you get is 28, you would count down the chart to 28 and this will likely be the couple's child both male and female.

Any children between the parents could be an expected birth but it's usually the ones closest to the middle number. If the mom and dad have the same number, the child will most likely turn out looking like the father or mother. smile The child can also come out looking like the head 1 spot above and below the parents.

The head chart cannot be used to predict all children because sometimes the game will pick a random head on the chart to be their child which is what I call a rare or random child in the family.

With that information, you can see that the bald guy paired with miss rainbow will produce any of the following heads (not including rares):
