Best Answer
Things work best when the consulate can 'link up' all the family members.
For a child you would use Part 7 "Travellers Under The Age of 18" and Part 9 "Remarks" of their application to include the parents' GWF numbers and/or passport numbers. It's fine to include the information in one of the parent's cover letter, but not as critical as identifying the relevant family members on the form itself.

Answer 2
I'm not sure where you saw you needed a cover letter for a UK visitor visa, not only is not mandatory document, it's not mentioned anywhere on the UK government website or their list of documents.
So no, you don't need a cover letter. However your kid does need a separate application and needs to mention one or both of you as accompanying adult on their application.
