@attestertester-g And...you do not mention whether you had any other income besides that small amount of self-employment income.
It raises the question of how you and the children were supported. There may be another tax-paying adult who can claim you and/or the children as dependents.
If you can be claimed as someone else's dependent you are not eligible for child-related credits.
