Often in animation, an adult female voice actress will voice a young child character of either sex, possibly because it's not always easy to work with kids, and the inevitability of a young boy's voice breaking once he reaches puberty.
Other times, there just happens to be a good kid VA available for the job. However when the child actor starts getting a bit older, then this results in the character they voice getting replaced by a different child actor. This mostly happens with boys for the reasons mentioned above. You're much more likely to see children voicing children in films, as voice recording for a film takes much less time than a TV series that could last years.
Often overlaps with Amateur Cast, as young children don't need to be professionally trained actors to sound convincingly like young children.
Contrast Dawson Casting, where older actors play younger characters.

Only Yesterday had ten-year-old Alison Fernandez as the young version of Taeko in the dub, along with various other child voice actors including Ava Acres, Madeleine Rose Yen, Jaden Betts, and Gianella Thielmann — however, the two exceptions in this film are the two adults being played by Stephanie Sheh and Hope Levy.

Nemo in Finding Nemo, voiced by 9-year-old Alexander Gould. He was replaced by the 11-year-old Hayden Rolence for the 2016 sequel, as Gould would've been too old to reprise his role (they did give him a brief cameo role to make up for it). Squirt, Pearl, Sheldon, Tad, and Darla were also voiced by children.

For The Aristocats, Marie, Toulouse, and Berlioz were all voiced by actual children (Liz "Louise" English, Gary Dubin, and Dean Clark respectively). The same goes for all foreign dubs of the movie including the Japanese version. However, in recent years, Marie alongside Toulouse and Berlioz are occasionally voiced by grown women in Japanese and French.

Disney Animated Canon and spin-offs:
In perhaps one of the oldest examples, the title character of Pinocchio was voiced by 12-year-old Dickie Jones.
In Bambi, Donnie Dunagan, Cammie King, and Peter Behn voiced Bambi, Faline, and Thumper as children. All three were born in 1934 and the film was released in 1942. Young Flower too is voiced by a child, Stan Alexander, who left show business at the age of eight and went on to a career in medicine.
Kathryn Beaumont provided the voices of Alice in Alice in Wonderland and Wendy in Peter Pan. She was respectively 10 and 13 at the time when the each film began production. In the latter film, Peter Pan himself was voiced by 14-year-old Bobby Driscoll, just a few years older than the character's physical age, and John, Michael, and all the Lost Boys except Cubby were also voiced by young boys.
The Sword in the Stone: No less than three different child actors played Arthur while the movie was in production: Richard and Robert Reitherman, animator/director Wolfgang Reitherman's sons, and Rickie Sorensen. Rickie is also a case of Dawson Casting, as he was 17 at the time.
Roo from the Winnie the Pooh franchise is usually voiced by a young boy. Exceptions include Crossdressing Voices Dori Whitaker in Tigger Too and Sara Sheen in Christopher Robin. Christopher Robin is usually voiced by a young boy too.
In Pooh's Heffalump Movie, over 900 children auditioned to star as Lumpy the Heffalump, and Kyle Stanger eventually won the role. He reprised the role in Pooh's Heffalump Halloween Movie.
In The Jungle Book, both Mowgli and Hathi Jr. were voiced by young boys. Mowgli was voiced by 12-year-old Bruce Reitherman, who was also the first voice of Christopher Robin and the brother of Richard and Robert Reitherman, who had voiced the young Arthur in The Sword in the Stone.
For The Aristocats, Marie, Toulouse, and Berlioz were all voiced by actual children (Liz "Louise" English, Gary Dubin, and Dean Clark respectively). The same goes for all foreign dubs of the movie including the Japanese version. However, in recent years, Marie alongside Toulouse and Berlioz are occasionally voiced by grown women in Japanese and French.
Skippy, Sis, Tagalong, and Toby from Robin Hood (1973) are voiced by actual children.
Penny in The Rescuers is voiced by a young girlーthe then-eight-year-old Michelle Stacy.
The younger versions of the titular characters in The Fox and the Hound were voiced by Keith Coogan and Corey Feldman, the latter of whom would later be known for his role in Gremlins.
Scottish mouse girl Olivia Flaversham in The Great Mouse Detective was voiced by an actual Scottish 8-year-old girl, Susanne Pollatschek.
12-year-old Joey Lawrence provided the voice for the titular Oliver in Oliver & Company. Oliver's eventual owner, 7 (8 by the end of the film)-year-old Jenny Foxworth was voiced by now-retired child actress Natalie Gregory.
Chip in Beauty and the Beast was voiced by the then 8-year-old Bradley Pierce.
In The Lion King, the cub versions of Simba and Nala were voiced by Jonathan Taylor Thomas and Nikita Calame, who were 12 and 13 at the time of release respectively. Simba's singing voice was also provided by Jason Weaver, who was a young teen at the time.
Six-year-old Lilo Pelekai in Lilo & Stitch was voiced by Daveigh Chase, who was almost 12 by the time of the film's release. Chase reprised the role in the franchise's first TV series and its pilot and finale films, where Lilo ages from seven to almost ten years of age in-universe, and Chase's voice does deepen a bit late into the second season.
Lilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch, set between the original film and Stitch! The Movie, has seven-year-old Lilo voiced by Dakota Fanning instead. Fanning was eleven years old at the time of that film's release.
All the other kids in the Western continuity were also voiced by kids during its run. Mertle Edmonds, in particular, was voiced by Miranda Paige Walls (born April 2, 1992) for the first film and one of the video games, and then by Liliana Mumy (two years and a fortnight younger than Walls) in the rest of the franchise. Averted in the East Asian Spin-Off shows, as all the kids in the English versions of those shows are voiced by adults with experience in anime dubbing.
Jeremy Suarez voiced Koda in both Brother Bear and its sequel. He was 13 at the time of the first one's release and 16 at the time of the second's. His voice had deepened quite a bit by then.
The preteen versions of Anna and Elsa from Frozen are voiced by children, even when singing. This is true of most foreign dubs of the film as well.
Moana is the first Disney "princess" film to feature a teenage princess voiced by an actress younger than the actual character, with 15-year-old Auli'i Cravalho voicing 16-year-old Moana.
In Encanto, five year old Antonio Madrigal was voiced by Ravi Cabot-Conyers, who was ten when the film released.

In the English version of Zone of the Enders, 14-year-old Leo Stenbuck was voiced by the then 14-year-old Remy Le Boeuf. In another rare VA example of an actor aging with the character, similar to the Kingdom Hearts example above with Sora, two years passed both in-universe and out between the release of the first game and its sequel, The 2nd Runner, that Le Boeuf, having gone through puberty and his voice deepened, was able to reprise his role as the now 16-year-old Leo. Interestingly enough, this is averted hard by both of his Japanese actors, Hiroki Shimowada and Kenichi Suzumura, who was 24 and 28-years-old at the time of recording the role for their respective games.

Cardcaptor Sakura:
Nelvana's Cardcaptors dub of the show did this trope quite well with some characters. The 10-years old main character Sakura was voiced by then 11-years old Carly McKillip, while 10-years old Syaoran was voiced by first Rhys Huber and then Jordan Kilik, who were either in their preteens or early teens at the time of recording. When the second movie was brought over by Geneon this was not the case, with Syaoran voiced by voice actress Mona Marshall.
The Latin-American Spanish dub had the then-teenaged Uraz Huerta playing Syaoran in both the TV series and the second movie. For the record, Huerta's voice sounded *quite* deeper in the movie.

Life Is Strange:
9-year-old Daniel Diaz from Life Is Strange 2 is voiced by Roman George, who was in his early teens at the time.
Chandler Mantione, who voiced 9-year-old Chris Eriksen in both LIS2 and the side-game The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit, was also close in age to his character. Amusingly, his genuine youth meant that his voice deepened noticeably in the relatively short period between recording for both games, while all of his character's scenes are meant to take place on the same day.

The Vision of Escaflowne:
16-year-old Hitomi was voiced by a teen actress who was discovered through an extensive talent hunt aimed at finding a "real girl" to play her. Of course, when said girl is Maaya Sakamoto...

My Happy Marriage: In the English dub, the child versions of Miyo and Kaya are played by child actresses (Juliet Peldon (Miyo) was 7, while her sister Lila (Kaya) was 10).

The English dub cast of Bakuten Shoot Beyblade features child and teenage voice actors who were close to the characters' ages at the time (though there were some exceptions). For many, it was one of their first voice acting jobs.

In The Cluefinders games, actual children voice all the characters. This makes it a little jarring in The Incredible Toy Store Adventure when they're suddenly voiced by completely different people, as the previous voice actors no longer sounded like children who were ten and eleven.

Grave of the Fireflies has Setsuko, who is a five-year-old girl, voiced by Ayano Shiraishi... who was five back then. Her lines had to be recorded before her scenes were animated, and because the animators were not used to having to do this, they tried to avoid angles from where her mouth could be seen.

Digimon Adventure:
The Latin American dub cast child actors for Tai and Gomamon (Miguel Angel Leal, who was later replaced by Gerry Meza), Matt and Agumon (Uraz Huerta), and T.K. and Biyomon (Lupita Leal).
The Swedish dub cast several children and teenagers between 11 and 16 as the DigiDestined, with the exception of Joe who was played by an actor in his late 20's. The Digimon were all voiced by experienced voice actors.

In Kingdom Hearts, fourteen-year-old Sora was voiced by 14-year-old actor Haley Joel Osment. When Kingdom Hearts II was released five years later, Osment's voice had deepened, but Sora also had aged enough between games to justify the lower pitch. All in all, a rare VA example of both actor and character experiencing a puberty voice change. However, while Re:Chain of Memories takes place right where the first game ends, it came out after Kingdom Hearts II. Osment still voiced Sora in this game and sounds pretty much the same as he did in KHII, thus sounding too deep to many players.

All the other kids in the Western continuity were also voiced by kids during its run. Mertle Edmonds, in particular, was voiced by Miranda Paige Walls (born April 2, 1992) for the first film and one of the video games, and then by Liliana Mumy (two years and a fortnight younger than Walls) in the rest of the franchise. Averted in the East Asian Spin-Off shows, as all the kids in the English versions of those shows are voiced by adults with experience in anime dubbing.

The games originally played this trope straight with eight-year-old Tails, who was voiced by the then-teen Corey Bringas in Sonic Adventure and Sonic Shuffle and his younger brother Connor in Sonic Adventure 2. William Corkery voiced Tails in Sonic Heroes, Sonic Battle and Sonic Advance 3, with other cast members stating Corkery was around 10 at the time he recorded his lines for Heroes. He's then been voiced by women from 2005's Shadow the Hedgehog on.

From Up on Poppy Hill had an interesting case in which Riku, a child character, had to be recast midway through the dub due to his original voice actor (a young Alex Wolff, to be precise) going through puberty. He was replaced by future The Good Dinosaur star Raymond Ochoa, but Alex's performance is still kept in the film until a certain point.

Nine to 14- then back to 9 up to 13-year-old Alphonse Elric, from the English dub of Fullmetal Alchemist (2003), was voiced by 12-year-old Aaron Dismuke throughout the whole series. By Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, puberty hit him pretty hard, so Alphonse was recast as Maxey Whitehead (Dismuke made a reappearance as Alphonse's father in his teen years). Also in Brotherhood, Nina Tucker was voiced in Japanese by then 10-year-old Sumire Morohoshi.

Sonic the Hedgehog:
The games originally played this trope straight with eight-year-old Tails, who was voiced by the then-teen Corey Bringas in Sonic Adventure and Sonic Shuffle and his younger brother Connor in Sonic Adventure 2. William Corkery voiced Tails in Sonic Heroes, Sonic Battle and Sonic Advance 3, with other cast members stating Corkery was around 10 at the time he recorded his lines for Heroes. He's then been voiced by women from 2005's Shadow the Hedgehog on.
This was also present in Japanese, where Tails was voiced by then-8-year old Kazuki Hayashi in Sonic Adventure and was replaced by Atsuki Murata in Shuffle and Adventure 2. Ryō Hirohashi would assume the role starting in Heroes and is still currently voicing Tails to this day.
In addition to Tails in Heroes, William Corkery's older sister Emily Corkery provided the voice for six-year-old Charmy Bee, being about 13 at the time. He has since been voiced by adult female voice actors from Shadow the Hedgehog on; this has always been the case for him in Japanese.

The entire genre of children's choirs and boychoirs— probably the best known are Vienna Boys' Choir, the Choir of Kings College Cambridge, and Libera— showcases children's high treble voices. Such choirs largely got their start in the Middle Ages when women weren't permitted to sing in church, so the treble parts in choral music were given to boys. Naturally, once the singers' voices cracked, they were retired from the treble section.

In the music video for Aerosmith's song "Crazy", 17-year-old Alicia Silverstone and 16-year-old Liv Tyler play two students who skip class and go on a road trip together. The fact that this is an exception is surprising because the video is fanservice-heavy and even features Liv doing a striptease at one point. Not to mention the fact that Liv is lead singer Steven Tyler's daughter.

In the original Lunar game for the Sega CD, Lunar: The Silver Star, 15-year-old protagonist Alex is actually voiced by a then preteen Ashley Parker Angel. For the first remake, Silver Star Story, Working Designs, the series publisher, considered replacing Angel because he hit puberty but ended up calling him back in anyway, feeling that this "new" Alex was a bit more "grown-up" than the original.

Kisa, Hiro, Megumi, and most of the younger versions of the main characters in the first Fruits Basket anime were voiced by young kids in the English dub. They were all grown up by the time of the second anime, so this trope was averted there. (Though Kate Bristol returned to reprise Kisa while gracefully passing Young Yuki's role to Amanda Lee. Hiro's voice actor also returned but as Kakeru Manabe instead.)

The English dub cast of Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water is notable for casting three actual kids in the lead roles, although one child actor has to do a sometimes-convincing, sometimes-overdone French accent.

Pretty Cure:
Mariya Ise was 17 when she took the role of 13-year-old Cure Lemonade in Yes! Pretty Cure 5.
Ayaka Ohashi was 19 when she voiced Lance, a child fairy, in Doki Doki! PreCure. However, this is not the case for Glitter Force Doki Doki, where Lance is voiced by then-30-year-old Bryce Papenbrook.
Haruka Fukuhara was 19 when she voiced 14-year-old Cure Custard in KiraKira★Pretty Cure à la Mode.
Hana Hishikawa was 18 when she landed the role of 14-year-old Cure Precious in Delicious Party♡Pretty Cure.

The English dub of Str.A.In.: Strategic Armored Infantry cast the young Reilly Harrison for the apparently-7-year-old Emily, and the rarity of this is mentioned in the audio commentary. Luci Christian, an adult who commonly voices children, did sub in for a scene or two, though.

Kathryn Beaumont provided the voices of Alice in Alice in Wonderland and Wendy in Peter Pan. She was respectively 10 and 13 at the time when the each film began production. In the latter film, Peter Pan himself was voiced by 14-year-old Bobby Driscoll, just a few years older than the character's physical age, and John, Michael, and all the Lost Boys except Cubby were also voiced by young boys.

Kingdom Hearts:
In Kingdom Hearts, fourteen-year-old Sora was voiced by 14-year-old actor Haley Joel Osment. When Kingdom Hearts II was released five years later, Osment's voice had deepened, but Sora also had aged enough between games to justify the lower pitch. All in all, a rare VA example of both actor and character experiencing a puberty voice change. However, while Re:Chain of Memories takes place right where the first game ends, it came out after Kingdom Hearts II. Osment still voiced Sora in this game and sounds pretty much the same as he did in KHII, thus sounding too deep to many players.
14-year-old Kairi's voice actress Hayden Panettiere was almost 13 at the time of Kingdom Hearts's release, and 16 when she voiced her as a 15-year-old in Kingdom Hearts II. The former is a rare example of a child actor being even younger than the character they're voicing.
Physically 14/15-year-old Xion was appropriately voiced by a then 15-year-old Alyson Stoner In Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days. Stoner returned to voice her in her other appearances as well as replacing Panettiere as Kairi in Kingdom Hearts III.

Chandler Mantione, who voiced 9-year-old Chris Eriksen in both LIS2 and the side-game The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit, was also close in age to his character. Amusingly, his genuine youth meant that his voice deepened noticeably in the relatively short period between recording for both games, while all of his character's scenes are meant to take place on the same day.

The first Mega Man Legends game had MegaMan Volnutt voiced by the 14-year-old Corey Sevier, but in the second game, the role was given to Susan Roman (who voiced Mayor Amelia in the first game). Cue players wondering why Mega Man suddenly sounded younger between games.

Amy Nuttall was 16 when playing Christine in The Phantom of the Opera on the West End, and to date is the youngest leading actress ever featured in the London production. Christine is almost always played by an actress in her mid- to late 20s, because most younger singers don't have the training needed for the demanding numbers.

Six-year-old Lilo Pelekai in Lilo & Stitch was voiced by Daveigh Chase, who was almost 12 by the time of the film's release. Chase reprised the role in the franchise's first TV series and its pilot and finale films, where Lilo ages from seven to almost ten years of age in-universe, and Chase's voice does deepen a bit late into the second season.
Lilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch, set between the original film and Stitch! The Movie, has seven-year-old Lilo voiced by Dakota Fanning instead. Fanning was eleven years old at the time of that film's release.
All the other kids in the Western continuity were also voiced by kids during its run. Mertle Edmonds, in particular, was voiced by Miranda Paige Walls (born April 2, 1992) for the first film and one of the video games, and then by Liliana Mumy (two years and a fortnight younger than Walls) in the rest of the franchise. Averted in the East Asian Spin-Off shows, as all the kids in the English versions of those shows are voiced by adults with experience in anime dubbing.
