Create and add the child to a family plan on your phone first under your account. Don’t try to do it on the child’s device first. That wouldn’t work for me. Then my wife came and created my daughter an iCloud from her family sharing function on her phone. Then… boom! I just signed straight into my daughter’s newly created iCloud on her new iPad.
