difference between kid and child

Hello,
I would like to know the difference between kid and child. Can I use kid instead of child. a very little child. It seems to me that child designates a very little child.
Thank you for your help.

Je ne pense pas me tromper en disant que "kid" est américain, c'est tout.

There's no difference. They exactly have the same meaning.

I have 2 kids = I have 2 children

The first one may sound more informal though

child = enfant, kid = gosse (I think)
