"Since I want to by a mini laptop which costs 300 dollars, (and I am from India). First I get a bit of money every month for doing nothing (10 dollars) and in our school we a winter fair and a spring fair so I sell Christmas cards in winter and in summer I sell old stuff. Tips: 1. Sell any items you don't want, like old stuffed animals, toys, shoes, clothes, etc. Make sure these items are in good condition or close enough. 2. Do some chores around the house or ask your parents if you could get an allowance. 3. Ask the neighbors you know well if you could help with chores like yard work, cleaning out a garage, cleaning up after a party, etc. 4. Babysit. Don't babysit people you don't know if you're under 18. If you're just starting out babysitting, babysit the neighbor's little girl or your 3-year-old cousin. Do this only if you fully understand how to avoid accidents and what to do in case of an emergency. Make sure your parents know the duties you are asked to perform before taking the job. 5. Set up a lemonade stand or sell lemonade. If you don't have any lemonade then use a substitute such as fruit punch or apple juice. Any thirst quencher will do! 6. Search down the sides of the sofas & even in your washer! People can lose their money in the sofa or forget to empty their pockets. 7. Sell things at your school, such as origami stars or wallets made of paper. Experiment. You never know what some people like. Make sure, first, that your school allows little "Businesses" like those. You don't want to break the rules. 8. Petsit, sometime when people go away they can't bring their pets, someone would need to feed them and depending on the pet other things, charge around $4 per pet and make sure you know the pet(s) and the owner(s) well. Do this only if you know how to prevent accidents and what to do in an emergency. Don't ever forget the pets, they are counting on you. Make sure your parents know the duties you are asked to perform before taking the job. 9. Put on a show for the little kids in your neighborhood. Charge about $0.75 a kid."

In 4 months I had £10000. In England it's a lot harder to make money than America 'cus the neighborhood ain't peaceful. The area that I live in is full of gangs and looneys. If I do a lemonade stand they will either rob my lemonade or they will steel my money and my lemonade, if I do dog walking, they will rob my money and the dog (happened once and I got in lots of trouble! ) trust me ur very lucky to live in a peaceful place.

"You know a FANTASTIC idea for making money is?! Walking and taking care of other people's animals. With a parent; adults, help, you can make colorful posters and put them on the corners around your neighborhood. You can do this job at any time during the year, and it really doesn't matter how young or old you are. Make sure you can get rides to and from people's homes and make sure they are people you either know, or live close by. It's even more fun when you do these job with a friend! You earn twice as much business and more money to split between the two of you! And who knows...Maybe those people will give you even MORE business. =]."

"Money is something everyone wants but no one knows what to do with. If you have money, don't get a horse, they cost more to get and care for than life long membership to a horse club. If you are less than 11-12 years old, I recommend you take a class before you start babysitting. And if you babysit, put up flyers, or an add in the newspaper, you would be amazed at how many people need babysitters and don't know how to get them. And never forget college. It will take about a million dollars all told to go. Save some of what you earn every time. I don't get allowance, paid for good grades, or chore money. I don't even have a steady babysitting job. I have been trying to save money for a long time and now have over 200 dollars saved up. Good luck guys."

"Ok here is what you do. First you go to red cross and take 2 classes: one for babysitting and the other for pet sitting. Then you make flyers and hand them out. With the pet sitting you can also do dog walking and washing. You can also do the dishes or clean up, whatever the client wants, but you have to charge for everything extra you do. If your neighbor has 2 houses (like mine) then you ask them while they are gone if they would pay them to water your plants and stuff like that. That made me like 400 dollars a month! And I guess you can go to your grandparents or whatever, and do chores for them, like the dishes or sweeping or vacuuming and stuff like that. I guess I make about 50 bucks every time I go over there. Another thing you can do is yards. Mow them, weed them, trim them, water them, and plant flowers in them. That can make a lot of money too. Also, if you are good at one thing, be creative and do it. And if you go to church, then you can ask if you can start a childcare program there, and you can work and make money there too! And one more thing is that if you're bored and have nothing else to do, then you can think of ways to clean the house, and your parents will probably give you money too. Well, that's all I know so, PEACE OUT HOMIES. Kc (a. K. A. Cassidy)."

Emma (8), its great that you want to start babysitting! But, I agree with your mother, you are still too young. But, you can work as a mother's helper! Once you get to 11-12 you will be the legal age to start babysitting. I am sure you are responsible enough to start babysitting...But taking care of someone else's child is a big responsibility and if anything would happen to the child while you were watching him/her it would be your fault...Parents just want their kids to be safe...Well, good luck!

I wanted to earn money this summer, so what I did was I asked ppl if they ever need a baby sitter just give me a call! I went to camp and met this young girl named Emily. I started to like her over that week so I said I could be her baby sitter! I just got home like 35 minutes ago from babysitting Emily. I really had fun. I am not just doing this for the money. I am doing this to have fun with Emily and her brother Mikey!

--Samantha, 12

To earn money, I do lemonade stands. One time, we earned $25! See, my sister's friend came over and together we decided 2 do a lemonade stand. And the people across the street were sorta rich, and they hired these people to put in new carpet. One of the guys saw our sign. It was a REALLY hot day, so the hired guy across the street said he would give us this big bag of money if he could get all the lemonade he wanted! We said YES!!! The bag had $20 in it! Well Peace!.

I make money by making key chains. I sell them for .25 each.
--Destiny, 11

If you want to make money, one of the key points is advertising! Get your parents and siblings to spread the word by talking to friends, putting up posters, etc. You could have a yard sale, bake sale, craft sale, and if you are absolutely desperate, try writing a polite letter to family members asking for monetary donations for that video camera, or that dog. Good luck!

--Deja d4l

You should clean your whole house including: mopping, vacuuming, dusting etc. You should make it perfect and the ask for $10-$20 depending on how dirty your house is, how big your house is, and your parents budget. If your parents are home while youre cleaning tell them to stay out of the way! Hope this helped : ).
--Marissa, 10

I washed cars over the summer with my best friend forever. We charged 5.00 a car, 10.00 a mini van or truck. We cleaned the inside and provided lemonade, and Oreos to our customers. We sat out old toys and books for babies and children to play with. Sat out a some chairs and Star Magazines for our guests. (We even sat up a small potty behind a curtain that we dumped every half hour and cleaned. We set up my moms canopy so that there would be shade in the blazing sun.

--Tay-Tay, 11

I think money is the dumbest thing in the world because you are treated a certain way when you have a certain amount of money. Poor people are treated like they are dirty rotten scum. Rich people are treated like snooty snobs because they have money. IT'S UNFAIR!!!!!!!! Money limits our choices, freedoms and abilities sometimes, and I don't think it should exist.
--Countrygirl, 11

I babysit also except I take care of dogs. Like when my mom's boss goes out of town, she lets our family take care of her adorable puppies. We get a lot of money because my mom's boss is SUPER rich and we get to play with puppies...

That is so not fair because I end up only getting $5-$10 to spend because I have to pay for my guinea pig supplies myself!! Any other ideas of tings that a 12 year old can do??
--Brittany, 12

I and my friends Sarah and Ayana made a babysitting club. We make a lot of money and we split it up. We put fliers up without our names or addresses and just our number using our own phone we bought using some leftover money. We have usual pizza parties on Saturday's every week so we can have some fun and talk about are recent babysitting jobs and stuff! It's fun babysitting! You can learn stuff that you never knew just from trying!!! That's how I make money.

I usually help my mom mow the yard, which actually takes three hours. We do it about every two weeks. See, our backyard is the biggest hill I bet you've ever seen!

So you have to owe them money, and then there are plenty of chores that just turn up!
--IML Fan, 12

You know the problem with me, the minute I have money I spend it. I just love spending money, I don't know why but I do. I am going to this camp this summer I have been trying to save up for it. So my parents got me a checkbook, not a real one of course. What you do when you earn money you put it in your checkbook and your parents don't actually give you the money. You have to ask for it, the check book really works, I already have 95 dollars in it.

When she's not just leave the thing running. Im telling you, it works REALLY well...If you don't get caught...

I usually have around 280 dollars by the end. I save 75% of all money for future in a bank and use the rest on new skate decks, guitar music books, and video games.
