read to your kid for a hour ? I am going to start "story time" for kids 3-6. I read to them for an hour and the parents can either drop them off or stay and listen. I don't know how much to charge. Do you think that the local library would be o.k with it if I did it there?

Usually the library has a story hour for free.
Also, you are not going to be able to do this in a public place because you are not insured if anything was to happen to one of the children.
It's a nice idea...maybe you could offer reading services in a person's home with them there....sort of like a reading babysitter hour. They could get some things done around the house while you read to their kids. It might catch on in your neighborhood and you could get lots of jobs. I don't think you could charge much more than a babysitter charges though.

An hour is a long time to talk. I have done story time for 1/2 an hour it my voice was tired. I would give the 13 year old a min. of 8 bucks.

Depends how many kids you got. I think around $7 would be fine, especially if you're only 13 and you don't have to pay bill and everything.
I don't know if the library would let you though since your charging for the reading. (They usually want you to do it for free.)
It doesn't hurt to ask though.
Good Luck!

the local library would probably let you do it. However they will most likely not let you charge the parents. I would probably pay $7. That might not sound like alot, but if you start with 10 people there is $70.

I seriously doubt the local library would let you run a personal business out of there.

Consider the state's child labor laws.
On the other hand, how much can you afford?
