how do i reset my ipad 6 with "Ipad unavailable" message

I gave my old IPAD 6 to my 5 year old Grandson. The screen is broken and no previous sign in info will open it. His Mom explained that she used it for a short period and had added her apple ID, however she erased her info when he came for a summer visit. Now i want to repair it and return it to him because he uses it to contact me. It says "IPAD UNAVAILABLE"

Click here and follow the instructions. Restoring the iPad requires plugging it into a computer with iTunes installed, or a Mac running Catalina or newer.


If there's an option to erase it, you can use that instead.
