Tell him "NO" in a firm voice when he does it, and then reward him when he doesn't jump up or bite.

Training!
You need to go to a training class, it’s not so bad now because hi is small, but in a short time he will be large, strong and powerful. Consider this, what if he jumps on somebody then and they get hurt…who is to blame?
Never use treats to train.
The reason for this is that most people don't carry pockets of treats around with them all day long. But they can give affection, a pat on the head or a kind work any time.
Contact your vet, a feed store whatever that may have a bulletin board or postings that list training organizations, schools or associations or clubs. If they don't then ask them where there is something in your area. Join one and you will see what you and your dog can do together.
You only need simple obedience training, but once you get started with it you may want to go on further. I started taking my dog for training, I got involved in it and before I knew it I was teaching the class.
It works like this, you are taught to train your dog, and it’s that simple and only requires spending time with your dog. You and your dog will bond together very tightly.
Depending upon the age I would guess that he is only playing, now if there is some heading breed in him he could be herding them, it is very common. If that is the case he can never be broken of it but he can be tough respect.

Brilliant answers all! Agree. Training.
Teach your kid to sit. Each time he attempts to jump use his name and the command "sit." PRAISE when he does it.
Or when he jumps, call him to you. (Dog's name, come.) Praise when he does it. Then have him sit. Praise. Goldens are very smart, he'll catch on quick.
Teaching him "No" is superior. Being proactive by teaching him desired behaviors when he is jumping and biting will instill good behavior.
There is a wonderful book called "Training Your Retriever" written by Monks somewhere. Very easy and understandable. I have had beautiful results with the methods.
My golden, "Einstein" 80#, says "awwuuff" to your pup. Good luck.

the best thing to train animals is with the punishment and reward training. golden retrievers are not usually like that, they are great with kids actually. if he does bite your siblings again... try to leash him out first, if it doesnt work, dont give food and if that dont work, try to hit him. do it over again till he learns that if he bites again, the thing that he doesnt want will happen to him.

You need to train him not to do that, when he does use a firm voice, and tell him "NO!" and reward him for obeying you. He may not get it at first, but after a lil' bit, he will understand
