Error sending code when trying to create child ID

I am trying to set up my child with an apple ID on my wife's old 6S. After I press the agree button to the terms and conditions I get an message saying "Error Sending Code Try Again". I cannot seem to get past this error. Please help with a fix. Thanks

Do you have access to another WiFi network where you can try? That has worked for several people.


Try a restart.


Restart your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


Try a forced restart.


Reset Device


If necessary


Hard reset


Do a backup and try a factory reset. Then restore from your backup.


Restore to Factory setting


Backup - Restore your device from an iCloud or iTunes backup
