Question

I have a receipt for a day camp that both of my children attended in 2024. Do I list this under 1 of my children's names, or can I leave it as N/A?

Thanks. Both of my children are on the same invoice and when I go to enter it, the online form is making me choose a child. Do I input the whole invoice under 1 child, or split the cost and input half and half (half for each child)?
