UK born children are entitled to be registered as British Citizen once one of the parent(s) gets ILR. You can register them as BC via MN1.

Please advise if I can apply for British Citizenship for my kids

Yes. There is NO absence limit for Children.

do I need to wait till I get British passport ?

No.

also, I haven't applied for my wife ILR and kids absences similar to my wife mentioned previously below.

This is not the correct topic or sub forum to ask questions about your wife's ILR eligibility. Please don't copy and past a duplicate post you have already posted yesterday about ILR in the British citizenship sub forum.

Select No. There is no requirement for a parent(s) to apply for BC along with a UK born child.

Could you please confirm that I'm not the applicant and submiting application as father, it should be representative of the application (option 2) ?

[CULLINAN]

I know.. Representative is a legal representative like a lawyer.

I got the certification of registration as a British citizen for my kids, just want to check if I have to wait for the citizenship ceremony appointment or ceremony is for only 18 or over?

[CR001]

Ceremony is only for those who are 18 or older.

Thanks for your quick reply. Could you please advise if I can apply for the UK passports for my kids ?

As you have got certificates of registration for them, you can apply for passports for them in the usual manner.
