In many countries, you can only get a proper, full-time job if you are over 16 or 18 years old. But there are things that teenagers in some places can do to make some pocket money. Here are a few ideas.
Parents with a small child want to go out for the evening for dinner, or to the cinema, but they don't want to leave their child alone. So, they ask a teenager to stay in the house and look after him or her while they are out. And if the child is asleep, you can do your homework and won't waste time!
Teenagers can deliver newspapers — usually you ride a bike around a neighbourhood and leave the newspaper at each house. Normally you have to have your own bike, and you have to get up early too, because people want their newspaper to read with their breakfast!
ts of older people are glad to have teenagers help them carry their shopping bags or do small things in their home, like washing or ironing(熨烫), keeping them company. You make money, and people in the neighbourhood get your help.
Some adults have a dog but they don't have time to take it for a walk. Dogs need a lot of exercise! So some teenagers can work as dog-walkers. It's a good idea — you make money and you're outside in the fresh air, getting some exercise too!
They're all great ideas. Just choose one of them to make some money. Then you can spend it or save it!
