Provided a responsible/knowedgeable adult is there to assit the child with the correct way to look after the turtles they would be average pets. The main problem with reptiles and amphibians is that they do not respond too well to human handling and reactions. Far better for a child to have a mammal (dog? cat? mouse? rat?)as a pet.
