I was leaving toward one of my bantams being a cockerel and one being a pullet but I'm not sure now. Any thoughts?
Bantam #1:

They both look like cockerels to me, based on comb for the first one, and comb and body coloring for the second one (pullets don't often have the black breasted coloration that he shows).
 
#1 you can tell by the comb and its posture.
#2 would help to know the age but your son is most likely going to be disappointed if you don't intend to keep a rooster.
The joke at my house is to not let my son pick the birds because his favorite chicks have always, without fail, for 6 years now been cockerels. That is how we end up keeping way more roosters than we really need.
