Changes in the child theme

Hello,

I have already created a child theme and this is activated. In the child’s functions.php file, a new widget area was created, dragging the “search” bar to this area. The point is that when I have to activate the parent theme (for any reason) and I need to come back to the child theme, although the area is still created, I no longer see the search command in this area and I have to drag it again. That’s what I need, when I change to the parent theme and return to the child, the system maintains it as it had before in child theme.

I coded the following intructions in child theme (functions.php) and other in parent theme (header.php):

functions.php (child theme):

function create_above_header_right() {

register_sidebar( array(
		'name'          => __( 'Above Header Right','music' ),
		'id'            => 'above-header-right',
		'description'   => __( 'Shows on right side in header.','music' ),
		'before_widget' => '<div id="%1$s" class="widget searchbar %2$s">',
		'after_widget'  => '</div>',
		'before_title'  => '<h2 class="widget-title">',
		'after_title'   => '</h2>',
	) );
}
	add_action( 'widgets_init', 'create_above_header_right');
?>

header.php (parent theme):

/* call Above Header Right widget area */
			if ( is_active_sidebar( 'above-header-right' ) ) :
				dynamic_sidebar( 'above-header-right' );
				endif;

Thank you
