I have a little sister age 13 and she wants to make some extra cash...?

Question

My little sister is 13 and wants to save up some money but what jobs can she do in her spare time and aren't just pennies an hour?

Answer 1

Unfortunately the only option really is a paper round. My sister (who's 14) wanted to do that but parents won't let her. She does things like washing our cars or cleaning, and gardening (in summer) for extra cash.
Incidentally, $50 a week?!!?!? That's about £30 isn't it?! Christ almighty, we give my sister £5 for a car wash, you can have a professional do it for £7 here! (and he does a better job!)

Answer 2

If she is comfortable with computer, she can look out for an option to work online to make some extra cash. I am a part time worker doing work online at home, so I would like to share a link where you can make $500 in a month working at home. The work need to be done is posting a discussion and answering a discussion. the link is:

if you work smartly, you can even make $1000 or more.. it all depends on your usage pattern. I worked for 2 hour daily last month and i got paid $238 for the last month. Its not bad after all, i am happy and making more. After sign up, do mail me to know the tips on how to increase your earning.

Please let me know, if you have any queries. I will try my best to give you right answer

(PS: When u are planning for a home based online work, be very careful because most of them are scam and ask you to pay initial money. never pay money to any such site.)

Answer 3

If your sister is at all arty, she could make quite a reasonable part-time income by going into the card-making business. There are some excellent books on how to do it, and there are lots of advantages also.
a) very low start-up costs
b) the hours fit in perfectly with school commitments, which must take priority
c)many outlets for quality, original products
d) cards will never go out of fashion, and
e) It is safe for a young girl.
I have a friend who has learning difficulties and makes cards and sells them to post offices and is doing well.
If she has a bent in this direction it is worth a try. Her art department at school should offer her sound advice.
Good luck.

Answer 4

what about jobs round the home or a paper round? Most places in the uk will not take on people until they are 14 and some 16! Its good thought that she wants to work not all kids do, so you should encourage her. Myabe odd jobs for friends family neighbours but be careful you dont want to approach someone if you dont know them as they could be any wierdo.

Answer 5

In a years time she can babysit legally for neighbours and friends. Until then, how about car washing/cleaning for neighbours and friends? Most people would jump to pay a small fee for extra help for these boring jobs

Answer 6

Try working part time for a local child care center as a "helper". You will need a work permit and you can only expect minimum wage but it is a good place to start. Good Luck!

Answer 7

My 12 year old daughter sells Avon and can get enough money to get all the extras she needs. Plus she gets discounted makeup which is a bonus.
I have to sign off her paperwork though and its all in my name she gets the commission as she does the work. I just supervise a bit.

Answer 8

I think at 13 the best you can get is either a paper round or baby-sitting. It sucks, but I think that's about it until she is 16.

Answer 9

Tell her to go down to the local paper shop and volunteer for a few cold mornings a week.

Answer 10

tell her to cut the Grass clean the house and give her about 50 dollar's a week that should help it more safe if she work at home because so much is going on.
