Pets can have a positive impact on children's development.

If a child takes part in caring for a dog or cat, this will help him develop a sense of responsibility and even strengthen his immunity.

After all, animals bring joy to both children and parents.

Let's figure out how you can help your child choose a pet.

How to help a child choose a pet?

First of all, it is important to make him understand that it is not at all necessary to buy a cat or a dog - there are many other alternatives.

You can rely on the child's temperament, for example, a dog would be better suited for a choleric person, while a phlegmatic person might like a turtle.

A puppy is bought when a child begins to develop physically and intellectually.

If he participates in training, it will help discipline him.

Melancholics would be better off with a cat or a fish. You can also think about reptiles and rodents.
