I wouldn't suggest to add anything to the Roots. Configure the forwarder to
the parent DNS, as you did. When you create the zones, create them
separately on their respective DNS servers serving those specific child
domain, such as:
On Child1's DNS:
child1.domain.com
On Child2's DNS
child2.domain.com
Then in the parent DNS hosting domain.com, delegate the two child zones,
child1 and child2.
