Rabbi Akiva Eiger holds you should make Kiddush although most other Poskim say you should not.

The Chasam Sofer writes that you should have in mind Kiddush during Davening.

I recall hearing that children should not make Kiddush on Yom Kippur as there is no Mitzva of Chinuch to teach them to make Kiddush for Yom Kippur.

Gershon I think you are talking about a special situation which I aluded too not every Yom Kippur but please correct me if I am wrong? – SimchasTorah Feb 7 '11 at 5:31

I am syaing there is only Kiddush on Shabbos Yom Kippur on A regular Yom Kippur there is no Kiddush – SimchasTorah Feb 8 '11 at 0:29
Just out of curiosity, do those who say to make kidush also say that that is when one should say birkas shehechiyanu? – WAF Apr 29 '11 at 19:02

You say shehechiyanu in shool at night anyway. – theblitz May 17 '11 at 19:24
