I created a apple id for my child to use on family share. I am trying to get him logged into a device but it says invalid id. When I do get it entered it wants to send a verification code to his id but I don't know where or how to log in to get it

I can't figure out how to log my childs appleID onto this device. When I enter it sends verification code but I don't know where to go get the code at his iCloud.com it will not let me enter. it says" I can only add the iCloud.com address that is already on file in your account?

iPad mini, iOS 12

See if anything here helps.  If necessary, you can use account recovery as explained in the link at bottom of the article.
