Hello Adnan4rayan,
You don't have to set up the Apple ID as part of setting up the iPad. Since you don't specify the age of the child here's several different ways:
Here's more about setting up an ID for a minor child.
Family Sharing and Apple ID for your child - https://support.apple.com/HT201084
If this is an adult child:
Create an Apple ID: When you set up a device - https://support.apple.com/HT204316#setup
or set it up separately:
Set up your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - https://support.apple.com/HT202033
Note, if this is a younger child you may not want to give the child full ownership of the device because if the child should forget some information it could be very hard to recover some of it. I won't go into details because I don't know if this is even the case.
