I thinkt that you can babysit, and since it is in the fall it might snow and you can shovel other peoples driveways. You can walk dogs. You can see if you can help around in your community. You can post your name and number somewhere so that people can contact you if they need anything. You can also ask your parents if they can give you an allowence if you do chores. These are some of my suggestions. Well I hope I helped! Talk to you later! Good Luck!

Well doing leaves you do not charge by the hour, you have to charge by the job.
If you have a small yard to do then ten bucks is a good number.
And by small I mean as in the average size city yard.
Anything very large then you say ok how many small yards would fit in this one and decide on a fair price.
As for anyother side jobs mowing and raking in the fall is good money. You can also walk peoples dogs, charge 5 dollars for a half hour. Good Luck Kid.

Ha ha That's the first thing I thought of... raking leaves. You can try babysitting... or deliver papers... just be prepared to wake up really early !!! You can try selling stuff door-to-door for your school or for someone else. You can make a comission (sp?) by selling stuff. If you joined a club you could prob sell stuff for them for the club. Good luck !!!
Btw, I should do that !!! Thanx for the idea !!! lol. Oh & regarding price, well I guess it'd depend on the size of the yard. Maybe you could charge $10/hr ? If it's a small yard you could maybe charge $5. Hmmm not too sure but that's what came to mind right away. Good luck !!! Oh ! & you could ask peeps if they need help w/ odd jobs. This is usually done in the summer but odd jobs can be done any time of yr. Or maybe you could even ask to help out @ a bingo by selling cards or dabbers or something like that. There's this guy who's been working @ this one bingo for YRS. He prob started when he was bout your age. Oh & maybe you can ask peeps if they need help moving stuff for fall clean up. Good luck !!! :) If any of you wanna make $, you can click here: http://hits4pay.com/members/index.cgi?lilac You get paid just for checking out ads :) Sweet huh ?

When I was twelve I mowed the neighbors grass, raked leaves, shoveled snow, washed cars, and other odd jobs, but that was 1964. They might have laws against that now.

He or she can simply do chores. For example, they can rake leaves, and alot of people appreciate that and end up giving them like 20 bucks. Babysit can also be a suggestion.

Try babysitting if your parents permit you, or volenteer to help people in your neighbourhood do certain chores around the house. Hope that helps!
