I put this in another question, but it still works for this one.
When i was your age I had a Lemonade stand. I made $200 easy a day, but I lived in an OK area. If you live in the slums or in a bad area you may not want to do that, also don't do it without your parents knowing, and keeping an eye on you, cause we live in a sick world.

Get a boyfriend and make him pay :)
Just kidding... Babysitting or yard work usually works. But if you need some quick cash, hit up the relatives for some easy housework money or mowing their yard! They are normally suckers to help you out once or twice, but they will not do it every week!

Babysitting, paper route, collect paper, cans & plastic to turn in for cash. I use to help a neighbor sell tee-shirts at the swap meet. Do chores around the house for allowance, but I think babysitting will make you the most money.

I will tell you what you can do if you need to make money for the summer. Just look at the ads for jobs, or apply for a job at a local School in clerical duties. You may also want to look up Student employmemt and try it.

I have the same exact problem!!! I live across the street from a golf course, so sometimes, My neighbor and I set up a stand and sell golf balls for the golfers on their way to the golf course. Try setting up a stand outside thats convenient to where you live. Like if you live near a tennis court or something sell tennis balls, or like if you live by a park, sell water bottles or something.

If you leave in a pretty good neighborhood try helping the elderly around the house. You can also walk dogs for extra money

Grown-ups don't trust kids because they think they are lazy and won't work. So some random adult probably won't give you a job. Ask your parents to hook you up with a job from some of their adult friends. That's the best way to get your foot in the door. Remember, it's not what you know, it's who you know.

try doing chores around the house and asking your parents for an allowance. also, if you have family close by, offer to do chores at their houses too in return for pay. work out a list of what each chore is worth... you know - $10 for dishes, $5 per room vacuumed, etc...

Let everyone in your neighborhood know you are looking for work.
Babysit... mow lawns... be a Mother's Helper... pull weeds... anything! Be creative!
Think of your special talents and offer then as a service! If you are not sure about your special talents, ask an adult who knows you. Good luck!
