My child purchased (with my permission) and downloaded an app to her iPad mini that I would like shared with her sibling’s iPad mini. How do I do that without repurchasing it? We are on a family share.

If you have Family Sharing, and the App is shareable over Family sharing, you should be able to download the app from the purchase list on the child's account without paying agin.

Thanks so much! I was reluctant to approve a second purchase, but did find out after I approved the purchase thought it would be free
If you downloaded it form the App Store entry directly it did charge you again.
Downloading it from the purchase history as shown in the link above would not charge you again.
