You do Not enter a dependent's earned income on your tax return.

If the these are wages and not self-employment income then they do not have to file a tax return.  However, if they do file a tax return make sure that they indicate on their return that they can be claimed as a dependent.

A child's earned income doesn't get entered on their parent's tax return (only investment income up to a certain amount).  Refer to the TurboTax article Should I Include a Dependent's Income on My Tax Return?

A dependent child who made more than $14,600 in earned income should file their own tax return.  If your dependent child made less, they could file their own tax return to get a refund. Review the TurboTax article Tax Filing Requirements for Children.

If your child elects to file a tax return, If your child elects to file a tax return,  make sure that they put that they can be claimed as a dependent on someone else’s tax return. ‌ Refer to the TurboTax article: How do I indicate that I can be claimed as a dependent on someone else's return?
