how do i add an additional device?

I just purchased a new phone for my child. It did not show up in my family sharing. I have their iPad listed but their phone did not populate in my list of shared devices.

iPhone 11, iOS 14

Did you activate it with their Apple ID? In Family Sharing, it is the Apple ID, not the individual device that makes a difference.
