Family Sharing accounts for text & facetime

I have created accounts for my children (ages 8 & 9) under my Apple ID using family sharing. They now each have their own icloud account & password. Unfortunately I cannot figure out how to enable Facetime or text on their ipads. I tried logging out of my Apple ID & logging with their new credentials, but I am unable to. Can anyone help please? Thank you.

You have to create new Apple ID’s for each child. Did you do that? Take a look at this.
