Any type of recreational area that attracts families or kids need extra staff when school is out of session: amusement parks, minor league baseball teams, state parks, museums, outdoor concert facilities. Anything that draws kids will need extra help when the kids are out of school and will probably appreciate your experience working with kids.

I am not really certain how much you would like to make or how much you want to work, but, tutoring is always an option, as well as working in a summer camp. Of course if you are married or have children, or both- you might just want to rest. Daycare is quite expensive and would probably eat up what money you made. Sometimes you can find a part time job doing something like babysitting school age children in your home. Many parents would be pleased if they could find someone responsible, fun and educating to oversee their children during the summer months.

The After-school programs that most schools have also work during the summer. This would be a great way to get to know the students in the community you'd like to teach in, and it gives you hands on experience working with children in a structured setting. You could also try YMCA camps. They often consist of children with disabilities or behavioral problems. This makes the job difficult, but it really does prepare you to handle anything that comes your way as a teacher. If there are places like Chuck E. Cheeses in your community, you could get a job there (it might pay more than the other ones, I dunno). Although you're not working in as structured a setting as camps, you're still working with children.

I would do anything that doesn't have to do with kids. I love my teaching job, but need that 2 month break from other people's kids. You might want to do something that is with other people your age.
Also, you may be taking graduate classes for the first few summers. Depending on where you live, you may have to get your master's degree within a certain amount of time to maintain your teaching certificate.
If you have children of your own, you'll really appreciate having summers off with them.
Good luck - it's a great career!

A couple of my teachers worked in the mall. Not only did they have a little extra cash, they also got good discounts on their fave clothes.
Do you like doing crafts or something? Maybe make things and sell them during your time off.
Work at a restaurant?
I don't know. . .that's a good question

Get hired in an area that pays you enough that you don't need to work over the summer!
