Teens are always looking for extra spending money; and the one thing they usually have in the summer is time. So instead of sitting in the house all summer on the internet or text-messaging, get out of the house and get to work! lol
Ways you can make extra money this summer:
~Washing & detailing cars- A task that a lot of people don’t like to do; but everyone wants a clean car inside and out.
~Babysitting- The old standard.
~Household chores for others- Especially for elderly neighbors, or someone just too busy looking for a little help with cleaning, etc.
~Pet sitting- Most people would rather leave their pets at home than board them when they go on vacation.
~House sitting/watching- A lot of people usually to do this one for a couple of neighbors when they went out of town, taking in their mail, watering plants, etc.
~Dog walking- Offer your services to neighbors who work long hours but want their pets to get some exercise.
~Minor home improvement- Like painting, house washing, etc.
~Cutting grass/yard work- Mow lawns.., It pays pretty good. You can also do gardening, raking leaves, etc. Many people don’t really like to do this themselves, but grass grows like crazy in the summer.
~Lifeguard-The YMCA and country clubs are always busy during the summer months. If you have a pool, give swimming lessons to younger children.
~Summer camp counselor- Another great seasonal job for teens.
~Daycare centers- These usually have higher enrollments during the summer as well and are looking for part-time help-perfect for teenagers.
~Tutoring- Many parents are looking to give their kids an “edge” or additional contact time in certain school subjects during the summer.
~Computer lessons/help- Let’s face it, most teens are a lot more computer literate and web-savvy than adults. Why not pass the knowledge along to others and make a little money in the meantime?
~Sell things on Ebay- Old CD’s, movies, video games, and books are just a few things that can still be sold used for money.
