Pet reptiles have special needs and they need more delicate handling and
care from pet owners. Because of these, young kids are not suitable to care for
pet reptiles. Even though kids aged 6 to 7 years can be taught in terms of the
proper handling of pet reptiles, constant supervision by an adult is always
necessary when kids are around pet reptiles. Even better, the whole family
should be supportive and committed to meet the unique requirements of a pet
reptile.
Reptiles are inherently wild, so you need to make sure that you choose a
pet reptile that is already tame and is already use to handling and being
around people. Try to select a pet reptile that has a gentle temperament and
disposition. The reptile's temperament, as well as the kid's motor skills and
level of maturity, will dictate the type of pet reptile that is right for your
kid.
