W9 Question

[SallyX]

I am the custodian for the savings account of my minor child, (Florida, if it matters). We're talking only about a $300 balance or so.
I received a W9 in the mail from Bank of America today requesting the form be completed and returned.
I have two questions:
1) Part 1 asks for a social security number. Is that mine or the child's?
2) Will I need to file a tax return for the child next year?

Thank you.

It should be the child's info, and no, the account will not generate enough income for the child to be required to file a tax return.
