Dinky Kong

Kiddy Kong, called Dinky Kong in Japan, is the co-protagonist and Dixie Kong's sidekick in the games Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! and Donkey Kong Land III. Kiddy Kong is the youngest member of the Kong Family, and his most notable attributes are his great strength and considerable weight, which contrast with his very young age. Kiddy was designed by Mark Stevenson. He is Chunky Kong's younger brother.

Kiddy Kong has the typical apelike attributes associated with every Kong, and his appearance has currently never changed. He is a portly toddler who wears light blue pajamas and sometimes a green pacifier (which he is only shown wearing in his artwork and never in-game). His pajamas are short sleeved with a few yellow, round buttons on them, and his pants go all the way around his feet. Because of Kiddy's short and small legs, his pajamas appear to be a little too big for him. Kiddy's arms, however, appear to be quite long and burly, displaying his strength. Even as a toddler, he is much bigger than his partner, Dixie Kong, in size, and is about the same size as Donkey Kong. However, because he is so large, he is shown to be very heavy, and he can hardly be lifted up by Dixie.

Kiddy Kong's hair appears to be a dark brown color, but it is a little brighter near the top of his head, which forms a point similar to Donkey Kong's hair. His eyes are also brown, and they resemble Dixie and Diddy Kong's large eyes. Kiddy is shown to be a little chubby, as his mouth is much bigger than any other part of his face. While his mouth is very big, he has very small ears and a tiny nose. Kiddy is overall the youngest member of the Kong family, being three years old.

Kiddy Kong, as his name implies, has a childish personality, being a toddler. For example, when Kiddy is defeated and loses a life, he throws a tantrum, crying loudly and slamming his fists down. He is simple and curious like a child; Dixie Kong first finds Kiddy chewing on an old tire, and when the player is not controlling him, he will often pull on his sock. However, he likely does not understand the greater consequences of his actions. For example, if Kiddy and Dixie get a Game Over, the two are imprisoned in a crib with children's toys. While Kiddy is clearly upset over being captured, the arrangement upsets him less than Dixie. Kiddy is also considered to have a personality similar to Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong, as he seems to be getting into trouble all the time. As mentioned in Donkey Konga 2, Kiddy received a liking for playing the bongos when he learned how to play them.
