Rats and hamsters or other small animals

I do not recommend omnivorous/herbivorous reptiles for kids simply because there is a lot of work involved in caring for them properly.
I agree nephew has one and he killed the other forgot to feed it. I want something easy for him. He loves it so far..

Bearded Dragons are a great reptile. They are one of the more "human friendly" species. Green anoles are also very good for beginners.
For snakes, I'd go with a garter snake or a ribbon snake. They stay nice and small.

Hamsters and rats are both gross in the sense they will even eat each other. I've seen people keep rats together successfully more often than hamsters, but having more than one hamster in a cage past babyhood is asking for disaster... they are just solitary animals...
This is how rats should exist as they are pack animals by nature and need the mental and physical stimulation of their cagemates. Solitary rats don't do as well.
