child; kid (used to refer to a child, or by an adult to address a child, or, in Taiwan, to refer to sb's own child)

Kids love pasta in tomato sauce.

The birds' home is in the forest, the fish's home is in the river, the bees' home is in the flowers, and the little children's is in China. We love our motherland from the time we're little, as the birds love the forest, the fish love the river, and the bees love the flowers.

Quite a few of the children looked unhappy.

Nowadays, some kindergartens are carrying out bilingual teaching, and so all the children can speak a little English.

The teacher of the kindergarten told the pupils to respect, and cherish each other.
