Using the money received as a child grant

Q: I recieve child grant for my daughter. Does this money belong to me or to the child? If i do not use up the entire amount from her monthly allowance should the remainder be given to the child or can it be used elsewhere? 

A: It belongs to the child.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
