I can't imagine what you're going to get out of this. Your kids will be tired of it in like a week (if not sooner).
Have you thought about a beta (the fish)? They're cheap and easy to care for. Less work, no stench, less money, similar payback. And you can at least tick off the "pet owner" box of being a good parent. Plus they don't live very long, which IMO is the hallmark of a good pet.
