For loop order by date

Is it possible to render pages with a {% for lil_foo in foo.children %} in date order, like newest to oldest?

Yup, it's just:

{%for lil_foo in foo.children.order('date', 'desc') %}

You are my hero @rhukster! :)

ok, next level.. what if i need to return all the second level child of a page with a for loop in date order.. ? :/

your going to have to put another loop in side that first loop. have a look at the macro in the partials/navigation.html.twig in the Antimatter theme to see how you can do this recursively.
