Unable to create Apple ID for child

I’m trying to set up an iPod touch for my child. After creating a new ID, it asks for a verification code that was sent to my child’s iCloud email address. When I try to login to the email to retrieve the code, I receive an error that the ID is not valid or supported.

iPhone 8, iOS 16

Hello,


For help with that you need to contact Apple. Click here --> Choose your country or region - Official Apple Support Select your country, then a product. If you don't see one that handles your issue then keep experimenting with selections until you reach one that gets you a chat session or a telephone call and get the representative to redirect you.
