Is it okay to take young kids to the Peruvian Jungle?

I am travelling with my husband and 2 children to Peru in July next year, and we would like to include some time in the Amazon Jungle. I am a little worried that taking children to the jungle is a good idea. My children are 7 & 10 years old. What would happen if one of them was to fall ill?

Therefore this is something that you must consider when taking children to the Peruvian Jungle.
Contact you jungle lodge of choice and ask for thier guidlines on children.
The Amazon Jungle of Peru is a really excellent place to visit! Enjoy your
