Finding summer jobs for teenagers has not always been easy, but now you no longer have to worry
about what your kid can do to earn their own money. Recently I found some different sites online that offer
information about what kids can do. Below is some of that information, along with questions to think about
to help you come up with your own ideas. Ideas for summer work:
● Parks and Recreation Programs.
● Babysitting (当临时保姆) during the day of school.
● Working part-time at a day care for the summer.
● Car washing.
● Working at local vegetable stands.
The easiest way for you to find ways for your child to make money is to think about others' inconveniences
(不方便). Think of things you need done, or would like to have done, and what you would consider paying
for these things to get done. Once you have some ideas, you can sit down with your child and talk to them
about what they would be interested in doing. Then once you have an idea of what they want to do you can
help them come up with fair prices.
Preferably you would want to only have your child working with people you know and trust, or in the least
bit you could have your child pick a partner. That way with each of them carrying cell phones, even those
without service can call 911, they will be much safer.
