Not his phone number but if you want to track it there are two ways...

1) you have his iCloud password so you can login to find me iPhone

2) you set up find my friend on his phone and allow your iPhone to view his location

The comment above works perfectly if you also have an iPhone. However, if you do not have an iPhone, check out the app Life 360

Any kid would know how to go in and disable location services and all that, And if not, they'll quickly figure it out...

Nothing is designed to be fool proof, but it works when it works.

I've set up restrictions on my old 5c which my 9 year old uses preventing her from changing any of the settings... not that she takes it out with her without me being there.

She's doesn't know the code to remove the restrictions and if she tries the phone will be taken off her
