These are smaller versions of the fully grown Homo Sapiens. They live in similar, but slightly messier, habitats to their larger relatives. They can be many different sizes and shapes, but are characterised by the lack of body hair, and, with the larger specimens, varying degrees of acne on the face, neck and back. Nearly all of them are hydraphobic, with a particular fear of soap and deodourising products. They have distinctinctive vocal characterizations, loud and raucous, which is mirrored by their need to listen to sounds of high decibels.
Their feeding habits are inconsistent and the larger versions require large quantities of junk food to survive. All the larger children have a strong attraction to all forms of communication (the telephone, internet etc), but are unable to communicate with the adult Homo Sapiens, except when requiring money or use of the car.
