Small children will typically struggle to take care of a pet, and will generally struggle understanding the specific needs of an animal. Small and vulnerable pets such as hamsters, small rabbits, guinea pigs, degus, reptiles or some-such may thus not be an ideal choice for small children.
Whether a five year old child can be mature enough to understand the needs of any pet is questionable, but this choice can only be made by the child's responsible parents.
In general, I would find a less vulnerable species, such as a domestic cat or a suitable (child-friendly) breed of dog, the more suitable choice. In addition to being less vulnerable to physical abuse and less dependent on care all day, every day, these animals are capable of expressing preferences or disapproval.
Guinea pigs can make good pets for children, including 5-year-olds, as they are gentle and relatively easy to care for. However, it's important to supervise interactions between the child and the guinea pig to ensure the pet's well-being and safety. Additionally, adult supervision is needed for handling and caring for the guinea pig to prevent accidents and ensure proper care.
An 11-year-old should have a pet that matches their level of responsibility and ability to care for an animal. Some good options could be small pets like fish, hamsters, or guinea pigs, as they are relatively low maintenance and good for teaching responsibility. A family member's participation in the care of the pet is also important to ensure the well-being of the animal.

A good pet for a six year old child could be a small and low-maintenance animal like a goldfish, hermit crab, or a guinea pig. These pets can be easy for children to care for and can teach them about responsibility.
I would say to stick to the vitamin c at pet stores. Sometimes the dosage is different, and try to use liquid vitamin c.
You can start bathing your guinea pig at about 6-12 months old. It's important not to bathe them too frequently because it can strip their skin of essential oils. A bath every 3-4 months is usually sufficient.
Guinea pigs make gentle and friendly pets, as long as you give them lots of attention.

a guinea pig they are more fun to play with for this age and live longer
A 9 year old would likely do really well with a fish for a pet. It is also likely that a 9 year old would enjoy a hamster, small mouse, or even a guinea pig.
