Q&A: What would be a good exotic pet for my 5 year old son?

Question by lala619: What would be a good exotic pet for my 5 year old son?
My 5 year old son would really love a spider as a pet. Unfortunately I am not keen on this idea or snakes either. I don't mind reptiles or amphibians, but I do not know too much about them.
We currently have two Bengal cats and a Hampster, these are his sisters pet and he feels that he doesn't have one of his own.
Any new pets would also have to fit in with our other family pets.

Thank you for any help.

A turtle might be nice for a 5-year-old, or a nice fish aquarium.

Don't get any more rodents, including rabbits. A hamster is enough!
