For children it is very important to have someone to play with and share their free time at home, that is where pets come in, they are the ideal company for the little ones at home and help them to take on certain responsibilities that will be useful in their adult life.
The recommended pets for children are the following:
1)DOGS 🐶: The dog is man's best friend as the saying goes, a child would not hesitate to choose it as a pet, it is the most popular option on the list.
They are very sociable animals and they are not afraid of humans, they are easy to train and it is perfect for teaching children to be responsible for another living being since they can be in charge of giving them their food, walking them, playing with them, teaching them tricks and until they are cleaned. It is highly recommended when choosing a canine, that it is a large breed, since the small breed are more fragile and very fearful.
2)CATS 🐱: Cats do not require as much attention and care as dogs, they are more independent, they must be treated in a gentle and respectful way. They are animals more for company than to play and are recommended as pets for older children and adolescents. A child could take care of feeding and playing with a cat, as long as the animal wants it too.
3)RABBITS 🐰: The rabbit is an animal that has become popular as a pet in recent years due to its low maintenance, it does not need much space since it can live in a cage and it is advisable to take it out daily to stretch its muscles, that time we can take advantage of it to play and run with the children in the garden or playroom. The boys could take care of giving him his food and cleaning his cage.
4)FISH 🐟: Fish are an excellent option when choosing a pet for children, since they do not take up space and are low maintenance. They live in fish tanks or bowls and the responsibility of feeding them and even cleaning the fish tank can be left to the children.
My daughter in particular has a beta fish, she feeds it daily, places it in a place to give it clarity and every 15 days she cleans her bowl and changes the water.
5)HAMSTERS 🐹: Hamsters are small animals that live in cages, so they are perfect for small environments such as apartments or annexes. They are very playful, curious as well as intelligent. Children can be tasked with feeding, cage cleaning and recreation.

I have dogs and I also had a fish, rabbit and hamsters. I can definitely say that it's not easy maintaining rabbits and hamsters because they are very sensitive to their environments. Being lonely stresses them out to the point that they might die but so does the mood in their environment
