Kiddie Tax on Capital Gains

I want to re-balance my child's stock portfolio, but it would trigger more than $13,000 but less than $98,000 in capital gains. I don't have any capital gains myself this year, would those capital gains be taxed at my capital gains rate (0%) or at my income tax rate (TBD, but let's say 25%).

They're taxed at your marginal rate (the "let's say" 25%) after the threshold is exceeded (which I believe is $2700).
