You do not enter your child's social security benefits on your tax return.  The SSA-1099 received for the child has their Social Security number in box 2 of the form, not yours.  If that is the only income the child receives they do not have to file a tax return.

You don't enter your daughter's SSDI benefits on your tax return.

 

If these benefits are her sole income, you do not need to report them.
