The Kids Have Jobs update arrived on August 8, 2026. Instead of only Dino Kid, all of the missing children can now work for food.
The jobs
- Kraken Kid can fish.
- Squid Kid cooks food.
- Koala Kid searches for scraps. The scrap does not need to exist in your world, because Koala Kid digs it up from thin air.
Collectibles
Every kid has their own lunchbox, toy and plush, found around the map just like Dino Kid's. All of them go into your inventory, but they do not stack. Dino Kid is the only missing child with both a yo-yo and a crayon.
