Set up Kids watch on family sharing - no location

I set up my kids watch through by iphone watch app as family sharing w their email. On my iPhone it shows as online, but 'not sharing location' even though his watch shows it as enabled. Note that I setup his watch as a family member using my iPhone, but his own appleID.

The Apple Watch must use the “Find People” app, and set up a “Share My Location” entry specifying you as someone the Apple Watch will share with.
