Tiny means you can charge into the square occupied by the creature. Non-tiny don't have enough space to charge (though I think that was probably not the point of the question)
Well not just Tiny, two size larger or smaller and Helpless as well in fact.
Being able to enter the space doesn't necessarily mean they can charge there, unless the 'nearest square you can attack from' rule was changed?

It was. The PHB update (p.26) removed that as a requirement from charge.

Charge now reads: Move: The creature moves up to its speed toward the target. Each square of movement must bring the creature closer to the target, and the creature must end the move at least 2 squares away from its starting position. So entering the target's space bring you closer to it basically.
In Square Adjacent To Target = 1 square away from target Into Target Space = 0 square away from target

Ref Q23, Special Movement Modes: A creature can’t shift when using a movement mode that requires it to make a skill check. For instance, if it is climbing, it can’t shift if it has to make an Athletics check to climb. (A creature that has a climb speed can shift while climbing.)

That only applies to trying to shift while Climbing or Swimming, "jump" is not a movement mode, the movement mode is "normal" which doesn't require a skill check.
And actually, that rule wouldn't ever apply because it's poorly worded; if you're using the "climb" movement mode, you don't have to make Athletics checks to Climb, it's only when you don't have the movement mode available that you would need to make the Athletics check.

Going to postpone putting up the answers until Sunday (or until the person who asked me to wait posts).

Jump actually is a movement mode, which is why some creatures have a Jump speed. And it applies to any form of movement that requires a skill check, and jumping certainly does.
