Child Trust Fund

After many years of "not bothering" I am finally starting to organise my financial life. One thing I still need to suss out is...
I have a small investment still in my daughters Child Trust Fund. I want to start investing a small monthly top up but want to know if it is worth keeping it in this Trust Fund 9that doesn't seem to have increased much over the years (been very static) or transfer the funds to a Junior ISA??
Any thoughts please...

JISA might be cheaper and give more choice?
