They might be just kids, but that doesn't mean the tiny tots of 'Dancing with the Stars: Juniors' are any less than the contestants of the original adult version of the show. Debuting this Sunday, ABC's 'DWTS: Juniors' features sons and daughters of popular celebrities and despite the term 'Juniors', these kids proved to be just as much entertaining and thrilling as their adult counterparts, if not more. 

Having premiered on Sunday, October 7 at 8 pm ET, the debut season of DWTS Juniors is hosted by Frankie Muniz and Jordan Fisher. Judging the participants are Olympic figure skater Adam Rippon, 'La La Land' choreographer Mandy Moore, and DWTS pro Val Chmerkovskiy. Participating this year are the following contestants: 'Honey Boo Boo' Alana Thompson, Miles Brown, Sophia Pippen, Ariana Greenblatt, Sky Brown, Mandla Morris, Hudson West, Mackenzie Ziegler, Tripp Palin, Addison Osta Smith, and Jason Maybaum.
