How to search your events and filter the calendar by child

Open the Events tab and tap the magnifier at the top. Type an activity, a child, a place, a note or who has it, and matches show under Coming up and Past. To see one child’s events on the Calendar, tap the filter button at the top of the Calendar tab and hide the others.
