The kids in the link are homeschooled so a pocket knife would be mandatory. I would also add a small LED flashlight, lighter, watch, and a handkerchief. That covers the essentials and uses up little pocket real estate.
Urban/suburban kid edc minimum:
photo id
small multitool/knife
lighter/firestarter
led light & whistle necklace (beaded or breakaway)
money
cell
keys
additional:
bandanna
paracord bracelet/shoelaces
most important:
training/knowledge
