My kids are 5, and Im not sure it's on the horizon in the next few years. There are no answers here, but I have the same question and have been wondering about how others approach this.

I didn't haven't my first phone until 25, and it's a different, much more connected world now, however.

Teach them how to use a computer first. Phones are very easy to learn eventually

A family I know give their kids limited screen time per day on the home laptops. No phones yet.
