Family sharing iCloud+ subscription

We have an iCloud+ subscription that shows on my end that it is shared with all family members. However my 2 children’s iPads (9th and 10th gen) do not show the same, though they do show all other shared subscriptions. So annnoying😩 I’ve followed all of the tips on Apple and other websites with no results. Neither iPads have access to storage in iCloud, which is posing a problem for storage on their iPads. Anyone have tips on how to fix this issue?
