Butterfly Kids is a font you can install on a Mac.

About

Butterfly Kids is a typeface offered through Google Fonts. The supplied Homebrew cask installs the single font file ButterflyKids-Regular.ttf in the current user’s ~/Library/Fonts folder. This installs a font, not a standalone application.

The cask provides the Regular font file only; it does not establish that other styles or variants are installed. To use it, select Butterfly Kids in the font menu of an application that supports user-installed fonts. The available evidence does not identify a specific intended use or confirm language coverage, character repertoire, or other font capabilities.

Install with brew install --cask font-butterfly-kids. After installation, choose Butterfly Kids in a compatible application’s font selector.
