A turtle is one option. Turtles are very strong, hearty creatures. As long as you feed them enough and keep their tank clean, they won't die on you. If cared for properly, they may even outlive you! So there is less chance of your child being heartbroken over their pet's untimely death.

They are also fairly easy to care for. The tank can be a pain to clean, but other than that, they are pretty low-maintenance. All you need is a tank, a heat lamp, a filter for the water (unless it's a land turtle), and turtle food (like Reptomin Floating Food Sticks).
