Linking kids apple music account to Alexa

Hello,

I'm trying to link my daughter's apple music account to her amazon echo and for some reason while trying to link it after putting her email and password it says link unsuccessful. I am not sure if there is a restriction because her account is for a kid.

iPad, iPadOS 13

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.

Disabled Apple Music Skill on Alexa Echo and then setup again - won't recognize it I had a subscription for Apple Music that started with my daughter being the owner. I modified the account to be my own account. I unlinked or disabled the skill on my Alexa App on my Android phone. I then linked it to my apple music subscription. If I ask Alexa Echo to play music from my phone then it plays the music. If I ask Alexa to play Apple Music then it states that I need to link an account to it. I have tried unplugging and restarting Alexa and waiting until the next day. It still does not work. It is like Alexa has some setting that it doesn't want to let go of from the old account. Any ideas? My apple music app and alexa app are all updated on my Samsung Note 8.
