Code:
./subscript1.sh 2>/dev/null 1>/path/to/file1 &
./subscript2.sh 2>/dev/null 1>/path/to/file2 &

I.e. two commands and separate output files.
It is possible to merge the stderr to the same file:
Code:
./subscript1.sh 1>/path/to/file1 2>&1 &
./subscript2.sh 1>/path/to/file2 2>&1 &

NB here the order of redirections matters: first redirect stdout to the file, then redirect stderr to the stdout descriptor.
(While ./subscript1.sh 2>/path/to/file1 1>&2 & would effectively do the same thing.)
