  1. Cut grass, wash cars, offer to clean yards or homes in your neighborhood. I used to make a fortune cutting grass every summer.


  2. babysittin

    counseling @ a camp

  3. a paper round

    washing cars

    ask neighbours if they have any jobs they need doing

    see if any local companies need envelopes stuffing or any small jobs like this

    i wanted a job at your age too! hope this helps!

  4. Ask your parents - get their approval for any work you accept; and get their approval before you approach anyone for jobs.  That way if anyone tries to rip you off you have mum and/or dad to back you up.

    Regardless of the country you are in I do not think there is much you can legally do.

    Have you thought of maybe making or building things to sell on a stall - that is if where you live has weekend markets.

    Good Luck

  5. I think its great you are doing this. My son is 11 and is trying to earn money too these holidays. So far he has rung around and asked our neighbours and family friends for odd jobs and he has done the following: Cleaned golf balls and golf clubs- This could be popular outside a golf club?), cleaned shoes, washed and polished cars, raked leaves, painted a fence, cleaned windows and walked a dog. The key is to ask people you know including those such as the elderly who find these jobs tricky. My son charges an hourly rate ($10 an hour and no one has said no to this!) and records his start and finish time in a notebook as the first person argued with him about his start time and paid less (very mean). I  don't think its a good idea to knock on strangers doors these days so make sure you only contact people you know like your parents friends and grandparents/aunts uncles and also their friends.good luck!
