What are some good ways for 11-13 year olds to make money?

Question

I was wondering, because me and some friends are trying to think of some ideas! Anything would be helpful!

Answer 1

Cleaning houses, cutting grass, helping people with kids....find some odd jobs that people need assistance with!

Answer 2

I am 14 and I wanted money too. Here are some things:

- If you live in a snowy area:
Make people sign up for a "business" where you girls will shovel their driveways if the snow reaches over....say 3 inches. (This can change due to climates). IT HELPS IF YOU HAVE A SNOW BLOWER!
- Lemonade Stand (My little sister made 75 bucks when she picked a nice road!) Usually choose one near a stop sign.
- The obvious, babysit neighbors.
- Pet-sit.
- This is a gross one but if you have a pet it isn't that bad. Offer to pick up other people's dog sh*t for a "regular" weekly price. (THIS MADE ME THE MOOOOST MONEY EVER!)
- Help out at church if they are offering it for money.
- Stocks!
- Sell things on ebay.
- Garage sale.
- Do chores around the house WEEKLY for a monthly price. Like I clean the bathrooms ever other week and get 20 dollars a month plus another 10 bucks a week for allowance.
- You can work at McDonalds at 13/14 or Dunkin Donuts.

Thats all!
Good luck!

Answer 3

Depending on the time of year:

1) snow shoveling is EXCELLENT (lots of parents with young children have a hard time getting this done)

2) leaf raking

3) you might be able to do some limited babysitting for friends of the family; you should get some training from the YMCA or the local parks and rec department, though (CPR training, especially)

4) Dog walking

5) Pet sitting (depending on how responsible you are)

6) yard sale/rummage sale/garage sale (when it's warmer!)

7) allowance money, if your parents will give you any. You can also offer to work around the house, if your parents will pay you for it. I'd pay my kids to work around the house!

Also, you might be able to get a savings account with the help of a parent, if you're interested in saving up long-term. It's a great way to make sure you have some spending money when you get older or even some money for college!

...good luck!

Answer 5

Well you can always babysit or do chores. Maybe pet-sit for neighbors or do lawn care for your neighbors.

I know there are a lot of people that do like day care or after school care for my church.

You could also tutor younger kids if you wanted as well.

There are a lot of possibilities if you look hard enough. Good luck!
