How to create a child account without an apple device?

I have an apple account from an iPod I had years ago. My child has a school issued iPad. I want to create an apple id for my child so she can install apps on her iPad.


How can I create this account for her as I do not have an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch?

Set the birthdate when creating the Apple ID to at least 13 so you can create it. You can also create it at https://appleid.apple.com


As long as you control the Apple ID, the actual age is not that important.


Then you can set purchases to require your password always, and set restrictions on the device in Settings->Screen Time->Content & Privacy Restrictions if they are not already set by the School.
