Playing Apple Music in different rooms at the same time?

Here is my situation... I have three Amazon Echo devices, and would like to play Apple Music (family membership) on all three devices at the same time, with different content. My son (10) listens to today’s hits, my daughter (7) listens to her stuff, and I listen to mine. Can this be done on a family membership without having to get them Apple ID’s?

If I link the Alexa to my Apple ID, can I, with one user name, play three different types of music from each device at the same time? Can I do this with one user ID on a family membership without having to get them each individual accounts?

Thank you.

Every user should have their own unique Apple ID. Without doing that you are not really using Family Sharing and cannot do what you want. An Apple Music Family subscription requires Family Sharing. If you set-up Family Sharing properly, you should be able to control the Echo devices separately.
