Change Apple ID on phone

I am giving my phone to my granddaughter. How do I remove my Apple ID/user name on the phone and have hers become the main one. My son already starting Family Sharing from his phone and created her Apple ID that way; how do we connect that to my former phone

Thanks

iPhone 6

It is possible to do only what you mention, but it is better to reset it entirely for her use:


What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch [or if you received one that had not been erased] - "Use these steps to remove your personal information from a device, even if you don't have it anymore." - https://support.apple.com/HT201351
