Many children dream of having a pet.
Some people really want a dog, some a cat, some a parrot, and other children want to have fish.
Yes, the presence of our smaller brothers in the house can have a very positive effect on the development of a child.
But this is provided that we choose the animal correctly. At the same time, it is worth considering the factor of its safety for the whole family.
Dog
The most popular in the children's TOP favorite pets.
The good thing about these animals is that they are tolerant of children’s pranks (at least many breeds) and are easy to train.
A dog can become your child's best friend, but don't forget that the dog needs care.
In order not to chew the furniture, he needs to occupy himself with toys. Plus - a quality collar. Plus - healthy dog food. Plus - cleaning the room from hair.
Well, and a few other “pluses”, including the need for regular walking.
But you can't expect a child to take care of a living creature on his own. You can't do without the help of adults.
Cat
Children also love them. These whiskered creatures behave similarly to dogs, but require less care.
In particular, they do not need to be walked or bathed regularly.
As for character, it is worth considering the desire of cats to be independent.
We also take into account that cats usually do not follow children as devotedly as dogs, and do not really respect active games with them.
Fishes
Almost an ideal option for small children, especially those who do not like too much contact with pets.
In addition, the fish do not require labor-intensive care, and they and their aquarium do not take up much space.
However, it is worth knowing that some of these aquatic creatures can live for a very long time, some even a quarter of a century.
Parrot
This is a particularly good option for older children who don't want a cat or dog.
These talking birds do not require special training, but can become wonderful companions for a child.
The main thing is to provide them with food in a timely manner and not forget to let their wings work, that is, give them the opportunity to fly.
