If your looking for cards for your kids then the first thing I would consider is making them an AU on some of your cards. If they are a student then look at some student cards, Discover has a student card. If none of those works then they would need to look at secured cards or cards with a credit union to get started.

+1 cap 1 is another option for starting out. Just don't have unreasonable expectations of the cap 1 starter card growing with them over time.

Thanks and Done. The Citi Bank card may not be listed on the website, but I believe they are still offering it to customers inside their branches.
