I am using "self employed" but I do not know where to enter my child's unearned brokerage account income. where do I go?

How much was the child's unearned income from the brokerage account in 2016?

I have two girls...approx $1,800 each for 2016

Did they have any 1099B sales? Sales have to be entered on the children's separate returns.
