Since the government has established laws that restrict how much teenagers can work, it may be difficult for them earn more than their parents' allowance provides. Consider the following seven ideas for how teens can make additional money regardless of whether or not they are able to work secularly.
1. Babysitting A classic job for teenagers, babysitting jobs are usually easy to come by in the local neighborhood. Teens may have already shown their ability to baby-sit at home and it won't be difficult to start taking care of other people's children. If they don't feel confident in their ability to care for babies, they can choose to only care for toddlers and younger children.
2. Mow the lawn. Most people would rather help a child that wants to work than pay a lawn care service. Invest in a good lawnmower and get going. The business will be busy in the spring and summer months. Keeping a date planner with appointment times and dates avoids booking more work than they can handle. Lawn mowing is hard work, but rewarding work.
3. Assisting senior citizens Teenagers can help care for the needs of elderly neighbors who need assistance around the house with small jobs such as yard work. Older teenagers could also offer to drive senior citizens to the grocery store and various appointments. Parents can help their kids make handouts describing services they will offer and the price they plan to charge.
4. Caring for pets Many dog owners have busy schedules and find it difficult to spend the time necessary to train and exercise a dog, especially puppies, properly. A teenager who already has experience caring for their own pet at home could start a pet care service that is as simple as just walking dogs or they could choose to offer additional services like grooming.
5. Apply for a retail job Department stores often hire teenagers to do seasonal work, especially during the summer and winter. If teens do this, they will be able to enjoy the benefits that come along with this type of job, like discounted purchases in the store where they work.
6. Clean out the garage. If your garage looks like mine, that is a job and a half. Enlist the organizational skills of your teenager to set the garage to rights. The fee can be negotiated ahead of time depending on what actually needs to be done.
7. Make an online business Many kids are quite skilled at using the Internet, and especially talented kids can use an online marketplace like eBay to make money selling goods and services. Teens who like to write can put this skill to use financially by being paid for submitting articles to websites like Associated Content.
Teenagers today have more options than ever before of making extra money. Explore these seven ways as a start. Your teen may already have an idea in mind.
