Why did cronus swallow his children? Let ME explain this better. Cronus was told that the next son he would have would kill him and rule the gods. So, cronus ate his 5 children. But his wife hid the last child and gave cronus a rock instead of Zues and when he was old enough he had metis create a potion that would make cronus spit up the children he had swallowed. After the gods/godesses were out of cronus they all fought him. The titans helped cronus. The ttans were sent to tartarus where they would be punished forever and Cronus was killed.
The children of Cronus (or Kronos) and Rhea were all the 12 Olympians. If you have read the books in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, the children of the Titans Cronus and Rhea are the gods who have thrones on Mount Olympus, including Hades, even though he doesn't have a throne.
I don't think Zeus actually killed Cronus. He gave Cronus a potion (from Metis) that forced him to regurgitate all his swallowed children and then with the help of the Olympians defeated Cronus and the Titans. But he didn't actually kill him, just overthrew him.
Cronus is the father of Zeus. Cronus swallowed his own children. But Rhea saved Zeus and hid him from Cronus so he wouldn't swallow him. Rhea gave cronus a rock wrapped in cloth instead of Zeus so Cronus swallowed the rock.
Cronus didn't hide any children. It was his father, Uranus, who hid Cronus' brothers, Hecatonchires and Cyclopes.
All of Zues, Posiedon, Hades, Demeter, Hestia, Hera children. Which are too much to name.
Cronus ate all of his children for fear that one of them would over throw him for power one day, as predicted by his mother Gaea. This was payback for what Cronus did to his own father Uraneus. Cronus wife Rhea got tired of having her kids eaten. So she tricked Cronus from eating the last child (Zeus) and fed him a rock instead.

Poseidon is the son of Cronus and Rhea. Who are children of Gaia.
