Has anyone any ideas for Jobs that a 12yo could do?

Question

I've thought of chores and a paper round but wondered if anyone could think of anything else.

Answer 1

12, to young

Answer 2

ask the local restaurant for a washing up job (its not as bad as it sounds!)

Answer 3

Cleaning tables at local restaurant, glass collecting... elf

Answer 4

Paper round or brochure distribution are about the only things you would be able to do at 12.

Answer 5

Washing cars, cutting grass (lawns!)  Shopping for the housebound.

Answer 6

12 year old??and u want a job??just enjoy ur life man...work l8r...!!!

Answer 7

OK!

I Started Doing  a Paper Round At the Age of 12, im 13 now and i still do a paper round. its fun in the first month , but it gets really boring, you have to wake up early in the morning. but it is really worth it. i get £17.50 a week(£2.50 a day) thats alot for only delieverying papers for only 20mins a day. if you are interest and willing to do this, just go to any local shop and ask the owner. you may get more or less than me. try not to work now enjoy life as a kid first. unless you really need the money and want some exercise.

Answer 8

Washing cars did it for me.

Go knocking door-to-door, with bucket and decent wax, etc in hand, and people will trust you to know what you are doing.

If you turn up with nothing, and no decent products, they will say 'no thanks'.

Their car is their pride and joy remember.

Forget a paper-round. Up too early, have to do it in all weather, and terrible pay. There just has to be an alternative.

Answer 9

cleaning cars?

cutting grass

walking dogs

Answer 10

Yep, my brother just turned 12 but for the last few years we, his loving family, have taught him how to be perfectly self sufficient. Jobs include cleaning the house, washing the dishes, cooking our dinner, taking about the garbage, cleaning our cars and bike, and cleaning the patio. For that he gets a shiny £2 coin every week, and a slap around the head in case he's planning some form of mischief.

Seriously, a 12 year old should stick to house chores, get a paper round when you're a bit older mate.

Answer 11

When we were 12 we babysat..but we took the course thingie

wash cars

mow lawns

if u or ur neighbors have pools, u cud clean them in the summer or sumtin lol

walk doggies!

Answer 12

Well at 12 you havent got a lot of choice have you. Maybe you could go round doing the neighbours lawns or walking their dogs etc. Otherwise just stick to the chores around the house. It helps you and it helps your mum.

Answer 13

Ever thought of baby sitting

Answer 14

Wash cars and get loads of pocket money off mum and dad

Answer 15

chemist/pharmacies often employ 12yo to deliver medication (if they have a bike to ride) or dust the shelves or empty boxes

Answer 16

A beater for the duck shooters Its not a hard job

Answer 17

Chimney sweep.

Answer 18

Well you could try helping your neighbour with the gardening thats what my son does and he get £5.00 each time he also does chores in the house for his £3.00 pocket money but then he does extra bigger chores for extra like cleaning the bathroom completly for £5.00 and he has a paper round, unfortunately you are still a bit young for any other kind of job, like babysittng but maybe you could try dog walking there is alot of people with dogs that work and just don't have the time to do it.

Answer 19

you could try working for a shop or evan a car wash.

Answer 20

Teach the 12 year old how to do the laundry and to clean the home and taking the trash out, doing the yard work, bathing the pet. Then pay the 12 year old what those duties were worth to you.

Answer 21

paper round
