Summer will be here before we know it and getting a job just for the summer isn’t all that easy for kids. There are ways your kids can make money this summer (or really anytime), so help them think about their options and go ahead and plan ahead.
Extra Chores
While the kid’s probably already have certain tasks they are expected to do, it’s nice to give them the option to make a little extra money, plus it can help you too. They could sweep, dust, help fold laundry, etc. depending on their age. Check out my recent post Frugal Skills to Teach Your Kids for allowance ideas. Don’t be afraid to think outside the box on this one too. The older kids can clean out the outside trash cans, recycling bins etc and do tasks that are often forgotten about or not an everyday task.
Pet Sit for Vacationing Neighbors
If you have families on the street that you know are heading to the beach or have other longer vacation plans have your kids ask what they do for pet care. Would they consider letting them pet sit or even just taking them for a walk. I started pet sitting when I was 11, with smaller jobs (cats) that just needed to have their food and water replaced and then started pet and house sitting in high school. Living on a farm now, we have to get a local student to come out and take care of lots of animals when we leave! Earnings can range between $10+ per day.
Help Out Elderly
This would be best for kids that you are comfortable leaving home alone probably aged 13+. There are many elderly that need someone to help with light cleaning, helping them get their breakfast and other small tasks. Make sure to get a full understanding between you and the family of what is expected. This is also a great option for elderly in nursing homes. Many families will pay to have a sitter to keep their loved ones company. Earnings range from $7 to $15 per hour.

While supplies last, get the best deal we’ve seen on a Brother printer in over a year!!
Shop directly from Brother and get their Brother B&W Laster Printer with copier and scanner for $99.99 plus free shipping!
This is a refurbished model that comes with a 1 year warranty.
If you wanted to get the same model brand new it’s currently over $200 on Amazon.
Why do I love these printers?
It is all about saving on the ink. The printer is a laser black & white printer (no color). It uses toner and only costs about $12-$14 to refill. You’ll also only need to refill it once a year!! Try to beat that with an inkjet.
Shipping is FREE.
