Child’s Apple ID set up issue

Hello dawnlives4more,

Welcome to Apple Support Communities!

We want to help you get the new Apple ID created for your child. You'll want to use these steps:

"On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

To verify that you're an adult, you need a credit card. On your iPhone, you can also use a driver's license or state ID added to Wallet where available.

In iOS 16 or iPadOS 16 or later

1. Go to Settings > Family. 
2. Tap the Add Member button .
3. Tap Create Child Account, then tap Continue.
4. Enter the child's name and birth date. Be sure to enter the correct birth date — you can't change it later.
5. Follow the onscreen instructions to finish setting up the account. For your child's Apple ID, you can use their email address, the suggested @icloud.com address, or their Game Center nickname. "

This Apple Support page has the full details: Create an Apple ID for your child - Apple Support

We hope these steps can help you successfully create the Apple ID for your child.

Please let us know if you have further questions.

Cheers!
