What are some jobs for kids so that they can make money fast?

Question

My little sister is 11 and she needs to make some money for a fair, she needs $16 and she doesnt know how to get money, our mom cant lend us any and no one else has any that we can ask, what can she do to get money?

Answer 1

have a little yard sale.

im sure she has many things she doesnt really play with, most 11 year olds do.. so price the things wisely, and see what happens... dont over price things though... if you have enough things out, price them low, and it will all add up to enough by the end.

Answer 2

She might go around the neighborhood and explain that she needs to make some money. She might think about what she is good at and be sure to tell them...like, rake leaves, dust, clean windows and so on. A lot of ladies would love some help during the day....it just never hurts to ask!

Good Luck!

Answer 3

walk dogs,

lemonade stand

this site http://moneymaking4kids.com/ has great ideas

Answer 4

she can start a car washing business, dog walking business, or lawn cleaning or something like that and ou can charge porbably $6.00 for each car if you decidde to have a car wash or $6.00 per dog per 30 minutes for dog walking or along the lines of $6.00 since minumum wage is $6.00 and you don't want to over charge and if you do that over a weekend you should have $16.00 by no time.

Hope this helps.

Good Luck!

Answer 7

good Question,    and how about walking neigbors dogs?

Answer 8

tell neighbors why she's trying to raise money. Ask them if they have any small chores they'd be willing to pay her for...walk their dogs...have a yard sale with toys/dolls/etc. that she doesn't play with anymore...

Answer 9

Maybe a paper route or offering to walk peoples dogs for them?

If you know any people who are too busy or old to do small odd jobs, like mowing their grass or watering their plants, maybe offer to do it for them for a small fee?

Answer 10

doing things in your community is easiest.

babysitting someone's kids, granted you find her mature enough, is a great way to make money and it pays well.

walking dogs is also a possibility if you see any neighbors that you know that have dogs.

a small little way to make money, provided you live in the right states, is to collect all your bottles and cans and turn them in for money. it takes a long time to even get much money at all, but it helps.

Answer 11

mowing the grass , cleaning the house,  walking or caring for animals

Answer 12

well I put up fliers doing lawns or cleaning houses and I'm 13

Answer 13

Sell lemonade for $.50 each at a place where a lot of people walk around in the heat. That usually works.

I actually remember walking around somewhere on a really hot day... I was so thankful when I saw kids selling cold lemonade for only $.50 lol.

Answer 14

She's only 11, she can't work yet, I know have a yard sale!

Answer 15

lemonade stands, bracelet making, salon, leaf raking, babysitting... just to name a few. or if you both wanna help out you could go door-to-door selling books or something. or you could just help our with chores around the house an ask your mom for like two dollars a chore. although i don't even like doing chores so idt it would be a good idea. also you could do a day camp for little kids- 'five dollars a kid, seven years old and below.' that way you'd get more money then you need.

Answer 20

Answer 21

Wash cars, just knock on peoples doors and simply ask "would you like your car(s) washed". I'd go with her though, she isn't old enough to be wandering the streets by herself.

Goodluck, I'm sure you will make that in an hour if you put your mind to it!

lemonade stand, bake sale, maybe a yard sale of the things and clothes she doesnt need
