Ways to earn money for children. The best ways for children to earn money. Install the AppCent application

Tears of joy well up on the faces of many parents when their matured child confronts them with the fact that it’s time for him to start earning money. On the one hand, we understand that we did not raise a parasite and parasite, because the child himself suggested it. On the other hand, we get rid of the need to explain to him the value of money and the hard work that goes into earning money.
However, all family members face one question: how can a child earn money? After all, he is still a minor, and finding a legal job for a teenager is not easy (if possible at all).

Why do children want to go earn money on their own?

The main reason for this impulse is that children want to spend money on what THEY want, and not on what their parents think is necessary. This parental care and boundless practicality lead to the fact that the teenager is not bought those awesome light green sneakers that simply take the breath away from all his classmates, but these boring black and white sneakers, which his younger brother may also inherit.

The desire to earn money and manage it successfully independently is formed in childhood. The sooner a child understands the meaning and purpose of bills and coins, the sooner he will come to the realization that he wants to try himself in some professional field. After all, he quickly understands that for such and such an amount he can buy so many candies, bows, balls, firecrackers, etc.

Most parents make a big mistake when they start giving money to their children on demand whenever they start throwing tantrums and showing their displeasure if they are refused. This is the wrong approach - this is how the child gains confidence that in order to achieve his goal he only needs to push harder, using screaming as an effective psychological tool and a means of blackmail.

The child should experience regular refusal, especially if the adults have a really compelling reason. Don’t shout, don’t arrange long and unnecessary proceedings. Just say “no” and explain the reason for your refusal.

How to understand whether a child is ready to adequately perceive the concepts of “change” and “cost”?

It’s very simple: when a child says “buy” instead of “I want,” this indicates his maturity in money matters. In order to consolidate skills and new knowledge, it is enough to play “shop” with your child several times, with pebbles and leaves instead of real money.

When does a child come to the idea of ​​earning his own income?

s7.leapfrog.com

Children begin to deal with money much earlier than they go to earn it. When they reach a certain age, parents begin to sponsor their children, giving them pocket money. Proper financial education of a child is when the child receives and manages finances competently.

However, sooner or later the amount received begins to seem insufficient to the child to satisfy all his basic needs (going to the cinema with a girl, gifts for friends’ birthdays, etc.).

Many parents believe that a child should learn to save money, because sometimes you have to put in a lot of effort and patience to get what you want. And this is the right approach. However, at one point the child fails to plan the budget competently, because the budget tends to grow along with the child himself.

And when the child realizes that he can no longer save due to the increase in necessary expenses, the idea of ​​starting to earn money on his own comes to his mind.
And this idea is worth supporting! After all, this is a huge event when a child understands that he has reached a certain level of maturity, has become an “adult” and can at least in some area of ​​his life not depend on his parents. At this moment, he is overwhelmed with confidence in his own abilities, in his luck, in the fulfillment of all, even the most grandiose plans.

Today there is a huge amount of unskilled labor that children can do. Your task in this difficult, but undoubtedly very important period for your child, is to help him find the most suitable work for him, and also to check whether he will have enough free time for proper rest and study, and whether it will be too difficult for him physically and morally at the “mines”.

How a child can make money: rock, paper, scissors...

Don't know what to do to keep your child busy so that he can start earning his own money? Do you want to help him express himself in a place where he will enjoy working? Please flip a coin and choose:

• Nanny.
  If your child is great with small children, he or she will love this activity. To do this, it is absolutely not necessary to go to those families in which the children are still very small and do not know how to walk or talk. Many parents need just such assistants who will help take their child to a club or to the pool, make sure that he eats during the day and does the necessary homework. Do you want to earn more? Combine several children into one group and take care of several at once!
• Parent's personal assistant.
  The functions of this employee are somewhat similar to the work of a nanny. The main difference is that if the “worker” is not yet old enough to care for and monitor small children, he can provide all possible help with housework. So, he can play and feed the child in the presence of parents, help look after the baby, go shopping, run to the pharmacy. All these things will help him gain invaluable experience for his future family life, which many people lack so much today!

• House cleaning.
  If you are not ready to let your child work for someone else’s family, find him a range of tasks for which you would be willing to pay him. Mow the lawn, paint the fence, make breakfast every day. The main thing is that the work should not be essential around the house, but secondary, otherwise you risk raising an egoist who will then not lift a finger to wash the dishes without a ruble from your pocket.
• Salesman.
  Light trade is best for children, such as selling flowers or lemonade, donuts and various snacks. And if your child is a creative person, let him sell his own fruits.

• Car wash worker.
  This type of service has always been and will always be in demand. The lines at the car wash are always long, and the cost is disproportionately high. So why shouldn't adults take advantage of the inexpensive services of teenagers who are eager to learn money Zen?
  If you live near highways where traffic jams regularly occur, and you yourself are sure that your child is extremely careful on the road, you can offer to sell him tea, coffee, soft drinks, and mineral water from the edge of the road. Often this is exactly what people on the road need.

• Pet care.
  If your child is not allergic to fur or saliva, and if he is affectionate towards pets, then this is a great way to make new four-legged friends. People periodically go on vacation, on business trips, or get sick, as a result of which they are unable to fully care for their pets and walk them.
• Neighborhood Helper.
  If you are on good terms with your neighbors, let them know that your child will be happy to help with housekeeping if they leave, and for a very reasonable fee. Watering flowers, walking the dog, clearing the lawn of fallen leaves - children do this very well.

• Gardener.
  For this work, you will have to be able to mow lawns, weed beds and flower beds, plant flowers, water vegetation, and in the autumn season, harvest crops.

We pay attention to safety

Before sending your child to a new job, make sure that he will be completely safe there and that nothing will threaten his health.
You should always be aware of where your child is and also have the phone number of his employer at hand. Otherwise, no amount of money will pay for what you overlooked.

Dear parents! Your task is to be a child’s assistant, not his personal supervisor! Then this first child labor will remain in your memory as an excellent memory.

Dear friend, I greet you. My name is Alexander Berezhnov, I am an entrepreneur and founder of the website “PAPA HELPED”.

I wrote this article specifically for schoolchildren who want to earn money and become more independent from their parents.

Perhaps you, dear reader, student's parent, then your job is to guide him and show him legal and profitable ways to get money for ice cream, movies and other delights of teenage life.

Once upon a time I was a schoolboy myself and worked part-time in various ways. Now their number has increased significantly thanks to Internet technologies.

Here I described 20 ways earnings for schoolchildren: 10 of them relate to real life, and another 10 will help a young man or girl earn money on the Internet. Indeed, in the age of online projects, the opportunities for earning income are becoming significantly greater.

Already interested? Then fasten your seat belts and let's go!

In the article we will look at working ways to make money on the Internet and in real life, and also get acquainted with schoolchildren and schoolgirls who are already receiving money for their skills

Is it possible for a schoolchild aged 10 to 17 to make money? Examples of children who earned an income from 8,000 rubles to 50,000 rubles per month

I'll start with examples in my hometown of Stavropol.

The first “heroine,” Victoria X, is in the ninth grade, studies in various clubs and, in her free time from school, writes texts to order via the Internet. This is called copywriting.

Site owners post such texts on their resources in order to attract more visitors to them. Vicky's journey began with running a school newspaper where she acquired the skills of a journalist. The girl knows how to beautifully express her ideas and earns from 4,000 to 12,000 rubles a month. In my opinion, it’s excellent, considering that the average salary in our city is 20-25 thousand rubles.

My friend Yura Z., while still at school, created original gifts - handmade leather goods and wristwatches with a designer dial. Yura also repaired mobile phones and computers. I found my first customers among my friends and their parents. In general, I never sat idle.

This activity brought the young craftsman 10,000 “net” rubles a month. In particularly profitable months, Yura managed to earn 30,000 or more, which is very good for the province.

I still have a gift from Yura - an original watch with the logo of the HeatherBober project, of which I am a co-founder. The watch also has a leather strap and a metal case.

Here is a photo of this watch:

By the way, from each sale of such watches Yura earns 1,000 rubles or more...

Let's continue... And again the girl. Her name is Nastya K. and she is in 10th grade. Nastya makes handmade soap and earns up to 15,000 rubles a month from selling it.

She received several thousand to start her “business” from her dad; he believed in his daughter and was not mistaken. Moreover, Nastya makes very beautiful soap, in the form of flowers, animals and even a set of herrings and other men’s accessories. Women buy this original gift for their men on February 23rd.

How to make money for a schoolchild - 10 ways to get a good income without investments in real life

“Classic” methods will help you at all times. Suitable for most schoolchildren.

Method 1. Find a part-time job with friends

I am sure that your parents have many friends who can be helped with something: walking the dog, cleaning the house, or taking some simple technical work home. Adults don't want to bother and do routine work. If you take it upon yourself, they will pay you for such help.

I have a friend, when she was 16 years old, she worked part-time cleaning entrances in her and a neighboring multi-story building. Yes, the work is not very easy and pleasant, but the girl always had money earned by honest labor.

At the same time, she studied excellently and managed to participate in the social life of the school.

Don't be afraid of work, being independent is fashionable now!

So, as a one-time job, adults may ask you to:

• free the balcony or garage from old things;
• buy products according to the list;
• take a walk with your pet;
• clean your apartment or dacha;
• move heavy things from one place to another;
• Take out household or construction waste.

At the age of 15-17, I myself worked part-time in similar “schemes”, I found them through friends and acquaintances:

• washed windows in car dealerships;
• unloaded construction materials;
• assembled furniture (wardrobes and kitchens);
• washed the entrances to my house;
• provided computer assistance to elderly people and taught them how to use the graphics program Adobe Photoshop (I have been working in it since I was 13 years old).

Mostly these were summer part-time jobs, but during the school year they managed to get some pocket money.

Method 2. Make and sell hand-made (crafts)

I already wrote above about schoolgirl Nastya, who creates “soap” masterpieces with her own hands. It doesn't matter if you're a guy or a girl, there are DIY ideas for everyone.

If you are a guy, you can create:

• wooden and leather products: bowties, wallets, watches;
• accessories for interiors in “Loft” and “Hi-tech” styles;
• three-dimensional paintings from different materials.

Example of a handmade wooden butterfly and leather wallet

If you are a girl, here are a number of cool hand-made ideas for you:

• bouquets of sweets and toys;
• original handmade dolls;
• figures and crafts made of polymer clay;
• trees made of beads, coffee beans and other materials (topiary).

Bouquets of sweets, toys and other items are now in fashion, only a flight of fancy can limit you...

Method 3. Post ads

In the age of the Internet, there are fewer companies and entrepreneurs advertising their services through advertisements on porches, poles and special boards.

But until now, in large and small cities, paper advertisements remain an integral part of the advertising campaign.

You can earn from posting advertisements from 100 before 500 rubles per day, devoting 1-2 hours to this. This isn’t much, but if you stick it up several days a week you’ll get 2 000 before 10,000 rubles per month .

For one pasted advertisement you will be paid from 2 before 5 rubles. It turns out if you put up 100 ads, for example 4 rubles per piece, you will earn 400 rubles .

The faster you move from house to house, stop to stop, or board to board, the more you earn.

The Internet will help you find a posting job. Type in Yandex the phrase “job posting advertisements” + YOUR city. You will immediately see many offers from employers.

You can find any job in the same way. The Internet can help you

Method 4. Work as a promoter

Distributing leaflets is another way for schoolchildren to earn money. Every company or store periodically conducts promotions where they use young boys and girls as promoters. You've probably seen them near large stores, the metro, and in crowded places.

In this way you can earn from 100 rubles at one o'clock . You can get a job as a promoter if you have a pleasant appearance, are not afraid to communicate with people, and are active and positive in life.

Promoters are often involved not only in distributing leaflets, but also in other activities that stimulate sales of the company's goods and services.

You can work as a promoter as early as high school

It can be:

1. Product tastings. You've probably seen how in large stores friendly young people in the uniform of a certain company offer you to try such and such candy, drink juice or eat a piece of sausage. This is called product tasting.
2. Test drives. Now we're not talking about cars. Bicycles and hoverboards are taken for test drives. Even irons and vacuum cleaners can be taken for a test drive at some companies.
3. Open days. Another type of promotion. All large companies periodically hold open days: educational institutions, factories, creative studios. Your role is to distribute leaflets, booklets, meet and register guests, escort them to the right place (hall, office).
4. Exhibitions and presentations. Typically, the exhibition is an indoor pavilion (business center) or an open space (weather permitting). Here, representatives of various companies “stand up” with their own stall or promotional stand. The exhibition is actively advertised in advance, attracting a large number of potential clients and partners who come to the event site. Your task is to attract as many people as possible to the “stall” (promotional stand) of a certain company that hires you: distribute the same leaflets, business cards and take contacts of potential clients.

Method 5. Work as a courier

Delivering parcels or mail, documents or goods is a good option for part-time work if you are a high school student.

Of course, greater preference in such work is given to students, but if you show your best side in a conversation with a potential employer, you will definitely get a job as a courier. You can also find vacancies on the Internet.

Method 6. Work as a counselor or animator

Summer camps, playgrounds, and shopping centers require animators and counselors all year round.

As a rule, in such a job you need to organize children’s leisure time, help adult counselors and educators, carrying out their one-time assignments.

Do you like children and fun, competitions and loud fur? You have a direct path to becoming an animator!

An example from my life

My family and I periodically go on vacation to various hotels by the sea and there are always animators there - young guys and girls who dress up in funny outfits and entertain the children: they hold competitions with them, show theatrical shows, play, dance.

Older animators (students) organize leisure activities for adults: they hold discos and competitions, and play sports games with vacationers.

Ask your parents and they will help you find a job as an animator.

Method 7. Work at a car wash

You can work part-time at a car wash on weekends or provide car washing services to neighbors and friends. If you are not afraid of such “dirty and wet” work, then you are a great fellow. You need to start small to understand the value of money and then learn to earn more.

Most jobs require people over 18 years of age, and car washers are no exception. But you can work officially from the age of 16. Sometimes this requires the written consent of the parents, and most importantly, the employer’s desire to hire a minor.

Method 8. Work as a waiter

To work as a waiter, you must be friendly and helpful and look good. The job is suitable for both boys and girls. Schoolchildren can earn up to 2,000 rubles per day in tips, if it is a popular cafe (restaurant) with wealthy clients.

This is one of the most lucrative jobs available to students and young people.

But it's not just about making money. If you do well, then cheap McDonald's will not be your destiny.

Over time, upon becoming an adult, you will be able to make a career in this field, becoming an administrator, then a restaurant manager. Later, if you want, you can open your own business - the same restaurant or cafe.

Method 9. Train adults (seniors) to use a computer

Teaching others is a fun and rewarding activity. Some adults are still not comfortable with modern devices. Computers and smartphones are a dark forest for them, I know this from my mother, who is 63 years old.

Nowadays there are many courses for adults, they are especially popular for pensioners. You can teach them how to use a computer, office programs and the Internet. Training in website creation, layout, programming, working with audio-video and graphic editors is an excellent opportunity for high school students to make money.

Granddaughter, how can I create a folder here?

First, you can work as a teacher, paid by the hour, at any educational institution, and then, after gaining experience, open private courses.

Method 10. Provide computer assistance

Nowadays everyone has a computer, some families have several of them, including laptops, tablets and other gadgets.

From time to time they break down or programs stop working. However, not many people have knowledge at the level of system administrators or programmers. This is where you come to the rescue.

You can start with a regular ad on Avito and other electronic message boards that are popular in your city.

Set your own prices.

Do not neglect paper advertisements; they are read by those who are not internet friendly.

For example, grandmothers and elderly people whose children are far away but have a computer. These are your potential customers.

Having sold computer assistance services, you can offer others - computer training (the idea of ​​the previous paragraph).

How a schoolchild can make money on the Internet - 10 ways to make a profit using a computer or smartphone

I am sure that every student has at least once thought about making money on the Internet. Most likely, dear friend, you are also among them. Below I have provided current ways to earn money for young people aged 10-17 years.

Method 1. Become a video blogger

Popular YouTube bloggers like “IVANGAY” make money from their videos tens and hundreds of thousands of rubles per month . Particularly advanced guys “cut” several million.

If you are drawn to performing on camera, have charisma and creative ideas, open your own YouTube channel. By the way, according to my observations, video blogging is very popular among schoolchildren.

Streams and replays of computer games are one of the most popular topics among teenagers 12-17 years old.

Popular video blogger IVANGAY will make his viewers laugh again...

You can start shooting video directly from your computer screen or on your phone.

After practicing for a month or two, you will get better and better. Finished videos need to be posted on your YouTube channel.

Promoted channels also attract direct advertisers.

Using the same principle, you can create your own text blog - a separate site on which you will write articles, notes, your thoughts and make money on it using the same advertising.

Payment can be accepted by electronic money: WebMoney, Yandex.Money, Qiwi.

Do you want to create your own profitable blog and engage in this type of activity professionally? Then take the course “SMM and blogging” at the Foxford online school.

Method 2. Make money on streams and computer games

Online broadcasts of games with commentary are a fashionable trend on which you can make money. Schoolchildren and young people all surf the Internet and play Tanchiki, Dota, WOW and other popular online games.

By telling how to complete a particular level, find the desired artifact, or defeat an enemy, you will earn money from the “donations” of your viewers.

Do you like to play? Then make money from it, don't waste your time!

If you play really well, you can make a good income from your hobby. Now in Russia, the CIS and around the world there are tournaments on popular computer games with prize pools of millions of rubles. This is called eSports.

In Russia, specialists in the field of eSports are officially trained. Russian state The University of Physical Culture, Sports, Youth and Tourism trains such specialists.

Esports are especially popular in Korea and China. There, hundreds of millions of young people play computer games and “cheer” entire stadiums at virtual “rubilov” championships.

Some schoolchildren make money by playing for money with other participants or by selling virtual game artifacts for real rubles or dollars.

Method 3. Create custom websites

All companies (businesses) need websites. There are also many people who work for themselves: apartment decorators, furniture makers, taxi drivers, lawyers, accountants, designers, hairdressers. The list goes on.

That is, you work in Izhevsk, and your customer may be from Moscow or another country.

You can learn how to create websites and other popular Internet projects in the course “ Web developer from scratch" from the famous online school "Netology".

Method 4. Edit videos

Video editing is a great opportunity to earn extra money online. Customers will send you “raw” material and their wishes for the design of the future video, and you will bring their ideas to life, of course, complementing them with your creative vision.

The cost of his work 1000 rubles in 1 second video. That is, a 30-second video for a client costs 30,000 rubles and there is no end to customers. Because he makes a very high-quality video product.

You can start by learning the computer programs Adobe After Effects or Adobe Premiere Pro.

By the way, the modern direction of “Motion Design” is now gaining popularity in video animation.

You will also be taught this art and finding valuable clients at the online university “Netology” in the course “ Motion design for beginners».

Method 5. Make advertising layouts

This method of earning money for schoolchildren is classified as “designer”. If you are proficient in graphics programs such as Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Corel Draw, then you can make good money.

These are the kind of business cards that schoolchildren create using computer programs and earn from 300 rubles a day! What's worse about you?

Every company, public organization, even the school where you study requires the design of advertising and presentation materials.

You can develop layouts for business cards, booklets, banners, and all this without leaving home at your computer. You can find customers among familiar adults, as well as by creating your own group on popular social networks.

All layouts are conveniently made in design programs, the most popular of which is Photoshop.

To learn how to work in it from scratch and create excellent layouts and graphics, I recommend that you take training in working in Adobe Photoshop by Zinaida Lukyanova. She is a master in this field and has been teaching the art of creating graphics for children and adults for several years.

Method 6. Complete tasks on sites for money

There are a number of sites and task exchanges on the Internet where you can like for money, write comments, and be added to certain groups.

For example, on the Otzovik website, you can register and earn a few rubles for leaving a comment. Reviews will have to be written about household appliances, banking services, and cellular operators.

I’ll say right away that this is not a very profitable method, but the first 100-200 rubles you can get it without any problems and believe in online earnings for schoolchildren, having “touched” your first online profit.

First profit you can earn WITHOUT investments on the VKTarget website. There you need to carry out simple tasks to promote VKontakte pages (like, join groups) and get paid for it.

Method 7. Write texts on copywriting exchanges

I already wrote above about the girl Victoria, who started earning money in the 9th grade before 12,000 rubles per month writing texts via the Internet for various sites. The activity of writing texts is called copywriting.

The course will help you take your first steps in copywriting and start writing paid texts to order. Copywriting Basics» online university “Netology”.

• Contentmonster is one of the most famous copywriting exchanges. Here you will find thousands of customers for your texts. Excellent conditions for authors, high prices for texts and the reliability of this site have been tested for years.

Method 8. Complete one-time tasks on the Workzilla website

Workzilla is a popular site where employers post small tasks:

Public (public page) is a type of page with publicly available materials on a social network with an author or group of authors, which is accessible to a wide range of readers (users).

Anyone can make money on a public page, although this takes time, because you must first create it, and then fill it with interesting materials, and only after a few months you will receive your first money.

Answers to frequently asked questions

Question 1. I am in 9th grade, I have heard about cryptocurrencies, mining and crypto trading, is it worth doing this to earn money and how much should I invest first? Nikolay, 15 years old, Murmansk

Nikolay, the topic of cryptocurrencies and trading is really popular on the Internet now, but I’ll immediately warn you that you shouldn’t take this matter seriously at such a young age.

Question 6. How can an 11-year-old schoolchild make money, or rather, I’m a schoolgirl and I want to do something, to buy different things for myself, I need at least 5000-7000 rubles a month, what can I do? Maria, Moscow

Masha, you are still too young to work. It is commendable that you have such a desire, but to be honest, I would advise a schoolgirl at 11 years old to start studying, and return to the topic of earning money at least after 3-4 years, when you are 14 or 15 years old.

Think about how you can make money on what you are passionate about, but not now, but in a few years. I believe in your success!

Question 7. I am the father of a boy, I want him to gradually learn financial literacy and in the future be able to provide for himself, tell me how to make money for a 10-year-old schoolboy, is he interested in design, is he good at drawing? Andrey Fedorovich, 46 years old, Tomsk

Andrey Fedorovich, thank you for the question. It is very commendable that you are concerned about this topic; not all parents are so wise. I'm a father myself.

In terms of your son’s professional development, I recommend that you study the work of freelance exchanges, for example, the website fl.ru, in order to further help your child display his design portfolio on the Internet and find his first customers.

It’s great if he’s interested in web design, it’s a well-paid profession, I know from myself, since I’ve been studying design since I was 13 years old. I was a 7th-8th grade schoolboy myself when I started getting involved in this.

In terms of financial literacy, I recommend studying books Robert Kiyosaki's Rich Dad series and then unobtrusively introduce sound ideas from these books into your son's head. Also Robert Kiyosaki has game "Cash Flow" for school-age children, specially designed for children (tabletop version). If possible, buy it and play with your son regularly.

The main universal rule- the more developed the parent himself is, the his children are smarter and more successful. Take time own development and you will become a rare example of a great father. This is exactly what I do.

Question 8. I am 14 years old, I study in the 8th grade, and I plan to work part-time every summer. I would like to know how a schoolchild can make money in the summer? Arkady, Sochi

Arkady, you have a wonderful city. The easiest way for you to make money in the summer is from tourists (vacationers on the sea).

Here are some proven ideas:

• buy cheap or make marine-themed souvenirs and sell them;
• sell food on the beach: pies, corn, drinks;
• Together with adults, develop an excursion route and take tourists along it.

conclusions

Nowadays it is much easier for a student to earn money than before.

The Internet appeared and now you, as a young guy or girl, can work without leaving home and receive 1,000 rubles per month until 100,000 rubles(if you are a real cool professional in your field).

remember, that assessments- not important !

For example, my parents’ generation often said that you need to do well in school, then successfully graduate from college, and then you can get a stable job.

Probably every child wants to have pocket money and not ask their parents for it, and therefore many teenagers start working in the summer to earn money and spend it as they want. Despite the fact that children can officially work only from the age of 14, even if you are 12, you can find an easy part-time job for yourself. Most often, children work in groups of several people, since not every person can complete complex tasks alone.

If you want to earn money, but cannot find a job because of your young age, you need to talk to your parents, maybe they can find you a part-time job at their job. For example, sort through documents, stamp them, place them in folders and files. Of course, your parents will pay you from their own pockets, but this way they will be sure that in the summer you are not just killing your time.

Common vacancies

Summer work at 12 years old can be represented by different vacancies. The most popular are the following:

In order not to be deceived, you need to carefully look at the employer and it is best for parents to do this.

It's worth noting that promoters, posters, and people who hand out flyers are paid for the hours they actually work on the day the job is performed. If your employer starts promising you money at the end of the month or week, then you need to run away from him.

Earning money on the Internet

Since you can officially earn money only from the age of 14, one of the current options for part-time work for a child is the Internet. You can find many ways to earn money on social networks, but you should not fall for those where you need to invest your money. And this is unlikely to interest a 12-year-old child, because he does not have his own funds.

Making money on the Internet is not difficult, and even interesting. In addition, this way of earning money is relevant not only in summer, but all year round. But it is worth noting that you should not expect a lot of money from such work, but a 12-year-old teenager does not have great needs, and therefore such a part-time job can suit them. As a rule, you will be able to earn no more than 100 rubles per day. The most common ways to earn money are the following:

1. Ad clicks. You don’t have to worry about infecting your computer with viruses, since the sites you need to navigate to are first checked. Parents should not worry, since the child will not be able to come across “forbidden” resources.
2. Reading letters and taking tests. You need to read short letters and answer questions.
3. Simple tasks. To earn money, you need to register on sites, write reviews, and like.

You can also earn money on social networks, for example, by reposting posts or completing a simple registration. There are many options for earning money. Of course, there is a lot of work on the Internet, but not all of it is suitable for teenagers 12 years old. For example, you can earn the most money by writing articles.

In addition, you can blog on Youtube and earn money from ad views. In order to become recognizable, you need to shoot something interesting and unique, then your channel on the platform will develop quickly, and you will be able to earn good money. You can advertise organizations or other channels on Youtube on your videos. The most important thing in such a topic is regular content. You can also play games online, and players will pay you money to keep you going level after level.

If the idea of ​​a channel is not close to you, then you can, for example, create your own personal website on which you will post useful information for users. Today you can create simple websites for free, for example, on the Wix platform, which anyone, even a schoolchild, can learn. Is it true It’s better to turn to adults to fill out content and optimize it.

There is a lot of deception and fraud on the Internet. Probably, people who have at least once looked for a job online have come across such vacancies: an employee collecting balloon rivers or other office work. It is worth knowing that such vacancies may be scams that offer to pay in advance for work material, and only then they will send you pens by mail that you need to collect. And the most interesting thing is that for such simple work they “pay” not little money, and therefore there are many people who want to try.

Jobs for girls

All girls of any age love to make something and do needlework, and why not combine business with pleasure? Very often children make money from their hobby. Jobs for 12 year old girls can be based on selling the following things:

• paintings embroidered with cross or beads;
• bracelets, earrings and rings made of different materials;
• photo frames;
• homemade soap;
• figurines made of salt dough, clay.

If you know how to draw beautifully, you can sell your work. This kind of art is in great demand, as people often order portraits of their friends as gifts. And if your work is of high quality, it is possible to sell it inexpensively, which will attract a flow of clients, you just need to properly advertise your services.

Jobs for boys

One of the most common jobs for a teenage boy is a gardener. Very often, older people look after their garden, vegetable garden or dacha. But not every person’s health allows them to burrow in the ground. And therefore, older people are looking for help for themselves, and most often these are children. A 12-year-old child can already weed beds, water flowers and carry out simple tasks in the garden. The job for 12-year-old boys can be different: a teenager can be an assistant to a car wash, a courier, or just help dad.

Helping neighbors

If you live in a neighborhood with hospitable people, then perhaps they can offer you a part-time job. The most common positions include the following:

Become an actor

If your child has acting skills, can sing, dance, or read poetry expressively, you can try an acting audition. Perhaps he has talent and will be invited to appear in commercials, TV series or films. It’s worth a try, because thanks to a part-time job for children, you can arrange a good future for your child. Very often, auditions for children's roles are held in cities. According to the law, vacancies for children 12 years old with official employment may be as follows:

• cinema;
• circus;
• theater;
• concert organizations.

These provisions are spelled out in Article 63 of the Labor Code, Part 3.

Is there any danger

If a child finds a job at the age of 12, then first of all he should consult with his parents whether he can earn money this way, even if he earns money on the Internet. Since in our country you can only work from the age of 14, you do not enter into any contract with the employer, and therefore you should not exclude the fact that you will be deceived and will not be paid anything for the work done. And if you contact the police, your parents may be punished for not supervising their child.

Few employers are happy to hire teenagers, since children are a lot of hassle. Very often children are not officially employed; the following should alert a teenager:

• probation;
• paid training;
• purchasing additional items for work.

If you are offered something from this list, then you need to go somewhere further away from this employer; most likely, they want to deceive you. Very often, the employer offers newspaper delivery people to pay a deposit for the material, in case you simply throw it in the trash can and the work will not be completed. You should not cooperate with such employers, as they want to profit from even people.

Since it is difficult to find a job for a teenager without deception, you need to listen to the following tips and recommendations:

1. Go to the school and find out about available vacancies for the summer. Very often there is a need for assistant counselors and garden workers.
2. Visit organizations located near your home. This is one of the acceptable options - find a job close to home. Don’t be shy about visiting organizations, as they often need helpers.
3. Talk to parents, relatives and adult friends. Very often, help in finding a job is provided by adults; perhaps they need helpers at work. And so the child will be under the supervision of adults, which means there is no reason to worry.
4. Contact the youth agency. But most often such organizations offer part-time work for children over 14 years old. But it's worth trying to contact them.

Before you try to make money, you need to read reviews about this or that organization on the Internet. And if they are scammers, then you will find more than one negative review about them. Part-time work for children 12 years old can be in different industries, the main thing is to talk with your parents and make sure that you want this.

Hello dear readers. Today we will talk about how to earn money for a child. Modern children are growing up quickly and their desire to acquire their own pocket money is proof of this. If previously children handed over glass containers, scrap metal, and waste paper for these purposes, now there are many other options, which I will tell you about later in the article.

How can a child earn money?

First of all, you must understand that child labor is a criminal offense. Therefore, a child can be entrusted with only the simplest work, which can contribute to the work activity of an adult, and not replace it.

At this point in time, employers can offer children a large number of different options for simple jobs, even on a part-time basis. The child can also start his own “mini-business”, in which his parents and older brothers or sisters can help him.

For me personally, the last option sounds more convincing, because your own business at such a young age in the future can turn into a permanent source of income. But who thinks about this in childhood?

If you want to buy yourself a cool phone, tablet, go to the sea in the summer or realize your other dreams, but your parents don’t have the money for it, it doesn’t matter, you can earn money on your own and this is not a problem, even if you are in school.

So, now let's move on to looking at some options for making money for schoolchildren. Perhaps one of the methods listed below will appeal to you and you will get started right now.

This earning option is ideal for excellent students. It’s easy to receive monetary rewards for your knowledge. Your first customers will be your classmates, then students from parallel classes (the main thing is that teachers don’t find out about your part-time job).

Ideally, this method works with individual tasks, for example, reports, essays, essays, etc. By the way, the work you have done should be saved in another version so that you can later post it on the Internet and receive additional profit for it. On the Internet, you can register on special sites where users buy completed homework assignments, coursework, diplomas and much more for money (read more).

One of the easiest options for making money. Here's a simple example with a small investment: after a physical education lesson, everyone wants to drink water, but the break may not be enough to run to the store - you can come to the rescue of your classmates by selling water at a small markup.

Similar to this option, you can resell to classmates or friends various interesting toys, stationery or other goods that are sold cheaply on Aliexpress. If you involve your parents in your activities, you can sell purchased products through the Avito website, after adding your profit to the starting price.

Summer holidays are three months of opportunities to earn money and one of these options is to provide two-wheeler repair services. To implement it, you will definitely need a room (you can use your father’s garage) and tools (every dad will definitely have them).

Most often, you will encounter requests to fix the brakes on your bike, adjust the “gear shift,” align the “eights” on the wheels, or seal punctures. You can learn all this in a couple of days by studying specialized literature or watching videos on YouTube.

You can find customers through the World Wide Web or by posting advertisements around the area.

Another option for earning money that is suitable for a child. Ideally, it is better to implement it for those who live in the private sector and not in an apartment building. The costs for this matter are small: detergents, a brush, sprayers for the hose and the water itself. On average, it will take you about 30 minutes to clean one carpet, and the income will be about $2 per carpet.

These two ways to earn money are also associated with the summer period. Finding such work is quite easy - we call travel companies in your city and offer our services. Such agencies are happy to hire schoolchildren, since they need to pay significantly less than an adult.

How can a schoolchild make money online?

In addition to traditional options for part-time work, there are also opportunities to earn good money through the World Wide Web. To do this, ask your parents to create an account for you in one of the electronic payment systems (a bank card will be used to withdraw money), and then choose one of the profitable options, which I will discuss later.

It would be more harmonious to use the time spent on the Internet to earn money, rather than waste it on games or correspondence on social networks.

With the help of rewriting you can earn about 5 thousand rubles per month. The essence of this option for earning money is that you will need to read the text given by the customer and retell it closely in meaning. In essence, this is what literature teachers force you to do, only not orally, but in writing.

This method of earning money is suitable for high school students, since customers will require the performer to have good knowledge of the Russian language. This work is, in fact, elementary, and you will find a huge variety of vacancies on article exchanges.

Working with graphic editors is not as difficult as it might seem at first glance. Now on YouTube you can find many tutorials on Photoshop, which can be learned and mastered in practice in just a few days.

Typically, customers on freelance exchanges require performers who can make preview pictures, headers for websites, banners, or simply correct defects in photographs. Even popular YouTube bloggers often simply do not have enough time to work with graphic editors, so you can try to offer them your services and make money from it.

Any user can create their own channel on this video hosting and earn money from it. To do this, you don’t have to be a blogger and film your life - you, for example, can make interesting moments from a video game or sports broadcast, collect funny short videos about animals into one video, etc.

There are a huge number of options for content, and you can learn how to work with video editors using the same method as in Photoshop - watch lessons and repeat your skills in practice. You can learn everything about ways to monetize channels on YouTube by reading the article.

Only recently I wrote a separate article on this topic, where I talked about. This is a very simple, but profitable activity that can really bring in a good income, and it takes very, very little time. Therefore, taking paid surveys will not interfere with your studies or interfere with your leisure time after school.

With the advent of Instagram, photography is again gaining popularity, and photographers are in demand. Thanks to high-quality photographs, you can earn money by selling your work online on foreign photo stocks. It is foreign users who are interested in unique graphic content, which, after purchase, is used for placement in articles on websites or blogs.

The most profitable options for making money on the Internet are related to programming, so I recommend that all children interested in a secure future start learning programming languages ​​while still in school. Then you can enter a university to study a specialty related to this area, and then get a good and well-paid job in some large company.

Conclusion
To start earning money, a child needs not to sit on the couch in front of the TV or at the computer, but to act. Try different options and you will definitely succeed.

Quite often, children tell their parents that they would like to earn some pocket money. In most cases, parents react skeptically to such statements - they say, first finish your homework, and then start talking about some kind of earnings. By doing this, they nip in the bud the child’s attempt to show independence in financial matters. But there really is a job for children with a salary. And you don’t even have to wait until you’re 14 to get an official job somewhere.

Work for children 10 years old

There is no universal part-time job that could suit everyone. When choosing, you need to proceed from the natural talents and personal qualities of the child.

The following options for part-time jobs for children are grouped in ascending order - from the simplest duties that a ten-year-old child can handle, to more complex ones for older children.

So, here are some types of work that may be suitable for children 10 years old:

1. Delivery of waste paper and glass. You can earn money and benefit the environment;
2. Help with housework. Surely, even parents may have friends who wouldn’t mind using the child’s possible help for a nominal fee - asking him to go to the grocery store, to the pharmacy, wipe off the dust, take out the trash... And who knows what will happen next. Perhaps word of mouth will work, and over time the circle of “clients” will expand;
3. Help with pets. Quite often there are situations when someone does not have time to walk the dog due to urgent matters, or is forced to leave for several days, but a cat remains in the apartment, and it needs to be fed at least once a day.

Work for children 11 years old

The list of possible part-time jobs is gradually expanding. At the age of 11, you can add the following to the options already listed:

• Handmade goods– in other words, hand-made. This option for part-time work is more suitable for girls. Unique handmade items are now in fashion and highly valued.
  The scope for imagination is enormous:
  - knitting;
  - weaving baubles;
  - making dolls from polymer clay;
  - beadwork;
  - handmade soap.

You can place advertisements for the sale of crafts on social networks, in special groups dedicated to original works, or even at the Crafts Fair.

• Posting advertisements. Such work can be considered more like a summer job - during the cold period it is difficult to post advertisements.
• For those who can draw, you can try to exhibit your works in numerous groups on social networks and also at the Crafts Fair.

Work for children 12 years old

The following part-time job options may be suitable for children aged 12 years:

1. work in a sales area. Officially, a child under 14 years old is unlikely to be hired for such a position, but by personal agreement, the store management may well agree to give the child simple tasks for a small fee - making sure that there are always baskets and carts at the entrance, checking that price tags remain in their places, etc. d. It is extremely important that negotiations with the administration take place with the direct participation of parents - in order to avoid deception;
2. packaging of non-food products in shops or supermarkets. Such part-time work is also possible after negotiations between parents and the administration;
3. distribution of leaflets. This is perhaps the most popular summer part-time job. It consists of distributing advertising products - flyers, leaflets, advertising booklets. This option is an excellent opportunity to combine part-time work with a pleasant walk;
4. gardener– another option for part-time work in the spring-summer period. Pensioners often need help at their dachas, as their health often leaves much to be desired;
5. become an actor– a great option for a part-time job. Quite often in large cities, auditions are held for filming in films or commercials. By the way, in cases with cinematographic and theatrical organizations, official employment is possible. This does not apply to modeling and advertising agencies.

Work for children 13 years old

The following vacancies are suitable for children 13 years and older:

1. gas station assistant. Wash the car, help with gas station, offer hot drinks - tea or coffee - all these are completely doable duties. True, this type of work is more suitable for boys;
2. animator This option is not suitable for everyone, since often companies organizing events and holidays want to include adults in their ranks. But you can try - of course, with parental help. In addition, the age difference compared to the required one is not so great as to receive a decisive refusal;
3. promoter. This type of work is suitable for those who are not shy about speaking in public and are not shy in front of large crowds of people. True, in some cases a health certificate is required;
4. Postal assistant. Quite often, post offices require assistance in sorting items. You can try contacting the nearest branch;
5. courier. Sending mail and delivering documents is quite within the capabilities of a thirteen-year-old. This type of work is also more suitable for boys - girls may find it difficult to carry a bag with documents.

Official employment

According to part 3 of Art. 63 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, minors aged 14 to 18 years have the right to official employment, but only with the written consent of their parents or guardians.

It is allowed to conclude an employment contract between concert, cinematic and theatrical organizations and a teenager who has not yet turned 14 years old (part 4 of article 63 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). In this case, the agreement must be signed by one of the parents, or the guardian and the guardianship authority.

A teenager who has reached the age of 14 can be officially hired if the following conditions are met:

• he is obliged to study;
• You can work only in your free time from studying, without compromising the educational program;
• Only light work is allowed that will not cause harm to the health of the teenager.

Earning money for children on the Internet

Thanks to the Internet, you can now earn money without leaving your home. There is also the possibility of part-time work for children. Of course, such work will not bring a lot of money, but it is quite possible to earn 100 rubles a day.

The most common types of earning money on the Internet now are:

• likes and reviews. For a small fee you need to register on the sites, like and leave comments. True, you can’t do without parental control here. There are now many dangerous groups on the Internet, so it is better to monitor which sites a teenager registers on;
• ad clicks. There is hardly any need to be afraid of viruses that can get into your computer in this way: as a rule, sites undergo security checks;
• paid tests or surveys;
• video blog on YouTube. Now every second person has their own channel. What content to fill it with depends on personal preferences. You can make a thematic resource dedicated to playing video games. Channels dedicated to handicrafts are in great demand - this topic is more suitable for girls. Modern technologies make it possible to record video of quite acceptable quality even on a phone. You can mount it on your computer using a specially downloaded program (Adobe Premiere Pro, Vegas, etc.). You can also advertise other channels in your videos, receiving a percentage of views. The most important rule that should be followed to quickly gain a large audience is the regularity of uploading videos.
• website with useful and interesting information on the chosen topic or with your own works. There are many platforms for creating simple websites (for example, Wix);
• processing photos in Photoshop. Suitable for everyone who knows how to use this program;
• writing articles. An ideal option for those who have straight A's in Russian and literature. If there are no problems with essays at school, why not try to earn money by writing texts? True, such work is suitable only for those who are patient and persevering, since literacy alone will not do it - skills in working with special programs for checking text for uniqueness are required.

Online wallet
Until the age of 18, a child will not be able to create an online wallet to withdraw money earned on the Internet. Therefore, this cannot be done without parental help.

Beware, scam!

Nowadays there are many scammers on the Internet looking for easy money. For example, there are vacancies such as “ballpoint pen collector”. Supposedly guaranteed quick income, you just need to make an advance payment for materials that will be sent by mail.

They promise quite good money for such “work”, so there are many gullible people who want to earn extra money.

It is necessary to explain to the child that every job proposal must be agreed upon with adults, no matter how truthful and attractive it may seem.

Where to start when looking for a job

Quite often, schoolchildren have job offers close to home. Before you rush to place ads, you can try to get a job in other ways, namely:

1. Find out at the school about possible vacancies for the summer. Often counselors or help in landscaping the area are needed.
2. Try to get a job in organizations located near your home.
3. Ask your parents, relatives and friends - perhaps someone needs help.
4. Research possible part-time jobs in youth work agencies.

Before you get a job in a particular organization, you need to look for reviews about it on the Internet. This way you will be able to avoid fraud and possible troubles.

Conclusion

If a child has announced his desire to earn pocket money, he should not be immediately prohibited from doing so. First you need to talk, find out which options are preferable for him, and look for suitable ones together. Be sure to talk about the “pitfalls” - scammers on the Internet and swindlers. Ask to always consult with adults before making any decisions.

You should not be skeptical about a teenager’s desire. Many successful and famous people started with part-time jobs: Julia Roberts sold ice cream at Baskin Robbins and sports shoes in Manhattan after school, Steve Jobs delivered newspapers, Thomas Edison sold apples, and Joy Mangano worked part-time at a veterinary clinic.

Who knows, maybe your child will be a huge success in the future? So help him today in achieving his goals!
