I still don't know what to do with the shadow next to the eye though (viewers left)and have to find the time to check out toddlers at the park on a sunny day.
Doing that won't help you, and will actually make things much harder for you.

The value of that little shadow is important, yes, but just a tiny drop in the bucket compared to the importance of the value issues you'll need to sort out first in the overall head.

Also, looking at other kids' heads with vastly different lighting angles will cause you far more confusion than help. Just study your original photo.
