Are there any plans to add any characters that are under 20 into the Articulate 360 character library. It would be great to have a few children to pick from.
Younger character sets isn't a Content Library 360 feature as of yet, but I'll make sure the right team sees your vote since we're tracking this concept!
If we add new characters in the future, we'll let you know! You can also keep a pulse on all the new items we're adding to Articulate 360 on our What's New, What's Next page!
You are wasting your time asking for this feature, as staffers like Katie have been unhelpfully 'forwarding this feature request' to the right team for nearly a decade. You can view the abundance of requests in all of the following threads. It seems that this simple feature request will never be implemented. Ridiculous.
Multiple requests aside, I would like to add my name to the request for child characters. I've heard that when using photographs of children you have to get extra releases, so that may be difficult. For me, even illustrated characters would be useful.
The workaround I've used at the moment is to import the characters from Microsoft PowerPoint 365 (you need a pro subscription I believe).
Microsoft recently launched an update which adds a large catalogue of cut out characters in various poses and from a broad range of backgrounds and ages.
I've attached two pictures of where to find this on PP.
Once you insert the character on your presentation, copy and paste across to your learning.
As elearning developer for a large children's hospital network I too would like to add my voice to having characters under 20 years of age added to the library please.
P.S. Thank you Antonio for your suggestion of Powerpoint. Good thinking!

Additional note: children of color would be very important here as well. Every group would prefer to see characters that look like they do.
I would love to see child characters, as well.
Missing toddler pack means we need to make our own good-enough workaround.
I would love to see teen characters
Indeed this would be very helpful.
I mean articulate should reflect all kind of learners :)
Thanks!
I'm writing 6 courses on Emotional Intelligence for children now. Those characters could be the heart of my job.
One more voice asking for younger characters, students especially. We'd use that feature for certain.
