Hi guys, I've setup an icloud email address for my 11 year old daughter. I've set this up via parental control and Family Sharing methods.

Now how do I give her access to the Mail app on her iphone? Right now the Mail app won't open.
 
It's been awhile since I've used parental restrictions, but I believe you have to sign into that section on her phone and toggle on the Mail App. You can hide Mail and the App Store (and probably others).

Thanks mollyc. She can see the Mail app but when she opens it the message says " this iPhone is restricted from creating mail accounts". The thing is, I've already created an email account for her.
