Odd jobs around your neighborhood is a good idea...put out flyers and spread the work that you're ready to help. |

Ask your parents to set U up an ebay account and go 2 local garage sales and resell them. If youhave bigger things to sell, just sell them on craigslist, It's free! Thats what I'm doing! |

I would say probably babysitting, mowing lawns or doing other chores for people and a paper route. Most states don't allow you to work under the age of 14-16 depending on the jurisdiction so it would be all that being paid under the table type work. |

I don't think you can be officially employed until you're 16, or have an child labor card with your state's employment office. |

The rules for employment of children, under 16 years of age, are (subject to local Education Authority bye-laws) as follows:
No child shall be employed
* under the age of 14
* to do any work other than light work
* before the close of school hours on any day on which they are under obligation to attend school
* before 7 o'clock in the morning (any day)
* after 7 o'clock in the evening (any day)
* for more than 2 hours on any school day
* for more than 2 hours on any Sunday
* to lift, carry or move anything so heavy as likely to cause injury
I agree with being a babysitter since there is no specified minimum age for a babysitter. However, common sense must apply, with the babysitter being able to look after both themselves and the child. It is advisable to have a contact telephone number or address in case of an emergency whilst the parent is away.
Paper rounds are less stressful but don't pay as well, as I recall. |

No one under school leaving age can be employed in work other than light work. You are not allowed to do work which is likely to be harmful to your safety, health, development, or work that will affect your attendance at school or participation in work experience. You are not allowed to work:-
* in a factory or in construction work
* in transport
* in a mine
* on a registered merchant ship.
The local authority where you live may also have some extra rules, called by-laws, about the employment of children and young people in your area. You should check with your local authority if you want to find out what these are. By-laws authorising children and young people to work in street trading must say which days, which hours, and the places where, they may work.
Employers who want to employ children or young people under school leaving age are required to get a permit from their local authority. The permit must be signed by both the employer and one of your parents.
If you are under compulsory school leaving age you can only be employed in certain permitted occupations:
* delivering newspapers, milk, groceries, foodstuffs, flowers or drapery goods
* office work, except in premises licensed for the sale of intoxicating liquor, betting or gaming
* hotel and catering work except in the kitchen or portions of premises licensed for the sale of intoxicating liquor
* work as a shop assistant, excluding any premises licensed for the sale of intoxicating liquor, betting or gaming
* domestic work
* light agricultural work or horticultural work for your parents. |

well i know how you feel if your mom won't let you get a job in the summer and you really, really want one. well i suggest babysitting. or maybe is there a neighbor with a local buisness who needs some help? that's what i did. i went and helped out my neighbor at his meat shop. babysitting is about the only job i can think of. or maybe you could be a dock boy at a resort. who knows? |

Legally, you can't hired for any real job until you're at least 14, and even then your options are very restricted until you're 16.
But there are plenty of "odd jobs" you can do around the neighborhood. Talk to your parents and neighbors about what sort of things they need help with, or would be willing to pay you to do for them.
-Babysit (or even just "babywatch" while the mother is at home working on other projects) or pet-sit or house-sit.
-Take dogs for walks - and scoop their poop.
-Help sort their trash for recycling (or even offer to take away their recycables for free, and you keep the deposits you get for recycling the items!).
-Consider being a camp counselor or "junior" counselor. You don't always get paid for this, but you might get a gift certificate, and the experience looks great later on your job and college applications.
-Ask your parents or grandparents if they have any time-consuming projects they want done, like cleaning out the attic or garage, weeding a neglected section of the yard, or organizing all their old photos. |

delivering free newspapers is good. it is done in the name of the adult and so you get minimum wage but the kid does all the work! the good thing about it is you actually get a little pay packet with real money in it - not some payslip where all the money is already accounted for with mortgages etc! aah to be young and free eh! |

In the UK one of the jobs you can get a young age is to do a paper round, and babysitting as well. Doing odd jobs for neighbours is also an option, and I think in some places you can work short hours at local shops. |

You can't be hired until you are 14 and then only for non hazardous jobs. You can work for your parents at any age and you can work in agriculture at any age as long as it is non hazardous and outside of school hours. During summer vacation school hours don't apply. Hazardous jobs are defined by the department of labor. |

Mowing lawns or baysitting. Aside from those the general belief is that 13 years old is too young for a job. I think it is best just to be a kid and have fun at that age. there is plenty of time for work later. Now I sound like an old person x( |
