Hi @MUKS due to laws across the world, children are prohibited from having an online account and using these devices. In the US, the age is 13 and in some European countries the age is 16. Fitbit is abiding by those laws. Lying about the age is the only solution, but would create a problem since the algorithms are made based on gender, age, height and weight. So that would give completely wrong data for your child. Lying about the age is the only workaround if you're not using the Ace. The Ace series was made especially to allow children six and up to use these services.

@MUKS   I just want to add that it is a violation of the Terms of Service to set up an account with false information.  Don't go there.
