Family sharing 4 members 8 devices

How can I setup iTunes for family in my 8 devices. We are husband, wife and two kids. But each of us have iphone, ipad and some ipods. I would like to setup family sharing with all devices. Is there anyway to do it? I setup the devices with different emails in order to have the icloud backup. Please advice. Thanks

iPhone 6s Plus, iOS 9.3

This should get you started:


Set up Family Sharing - Apple Support


Family Sharing makes it easy for up to six people in your family to share each other’s iTunes, iBooks, and App Store purchases without sharing accounts:


Family Sharing - Apple Support


Family Sharing requires a personal Apple ID signed in to iCloud and iTunes 12. Music, movies, TV shows, and books can be downloaded on up to 10 devices per account, five of which can be computers.


In you case, to answer your specific question, each family member should have their own Apple ID and each Apple ID can have multiple devices associated with it.
