You can do dog walking.Or you can volunter for $12 or more an hour.But the job that you really get paid for is acting or singing jobs.Look online for acting jobs.Acting jobs pay over $50 an hour.I even say a modeling job that paided $1,500 a day.I hope this answers your questions.Check out this website for acting and singing jobs.

umm...Kids that age don't really take jobs or something like that so I would have to say legally selling art made by them.

Factory jobs! Getting into small places in machinery to fix stuff...Hope you don't get caught and lose a limb!

Well, once it does start snowing you could always go door to door and ask people if they need their walkway/driveway shoveled. Give them an innocent sweet smile and they'll probably say yes. :D

Well, most states have laws against children working at that age. Usually, you have to be 16 or so. You could mow the lawn or wash windows or something.

A:
raking leaves and dog walking.
or clean the house for allowance
anyway, you're too young to work seriously.

A:
Really, other than babysitting, there's nothing I can think of.
Just the everyday chores, I suppose. It is illegal to do anything else, you know.
You could make cookies, and sell them.

Answered by Ash
A:
dog walking,pet-sitting or something like that.
good luck =D
Answered by Chapstick
A:
You are not even old enough to babysit. Just do extra chores around the house if your parents are willing to pay you. Make all the beds, wash the dishes, clean the toilets, help with the cooking, take out the snow... etc. Good luck, but honestly until you are at least 15 you won't be getting a job.

well i dont no about america...i assume that is where you are from. but in australia i think its illegal to employ people under the age of 14. but you could always do an odd jobs kind of stuff. like cleaning guttered and houses and wat not. cleaning cars is a good one, walking dogs works. help move junk or steal peoples stuff and sell it back to them

uhm, ship them to china and put them to work in slave labor camps for Wal Mart products??? Hon, they are too young... Would you want your 9 year out there working??? I would say you should give them odd jobs around the house and an allowance...

A:
Have you ever heard of child labor? That's too young for an "american" kid to work. If you want them to keep busy give them chores around the house, or cleaning out an attic or a garage, they can even try to do handy work for neighbors. Babysitting? HA! I would never let a kid watch my child.

A:
If this is to teach them how to be responsible, then you could commend them into chores...
Otherwise, if it's for the money, you could send them to have some chores done in a house. Or make them build a blog and add some addsense to them, if the page gets good traffic they'll earn a lot.

Have them sell snowcones or hot chocolate.

A:
They can go to the arts and crafts store and try to think of something creative to make and sell what they made to various people. Or they can help an elderly person. Or walk someones dog. JObs for 9-12 yr. olds are extremely limited. That's the best i could give you.
Answered by simesegal
A:
do you need them to earn money or just keep busy.
I am not sure of the legalities of working for ANY business at this age....when I was about that age, I stocked the shelves of a local convenience store - like a Circle K or 7/11 but I didn't get much $$
YOU NEED to check out VOLUNTEER work in your area IF money is NOT an issue....this gives experience and makes it much easier for when they are 15 or 16 and can work for real $
consider painting - house cleaning - dog walking - dog crap clean up in peoples yards - cat/pet sitting etc. Dog walking is actually quite lucrative...i know adults who do it.

I have two small dogs that love children. One is a beagle and one is a rat terrier and both are tried and true friendly. When the neighbors kids need a couple of bucks, they knock on the door and walk my dogs. They have a blast running all over the neighborhood. Dog walking is a good idea as long as the child is more powerful than the dog and the dog is controllable and friendly. I can never say no because my doggies are so happy when the kids come over and when I go and check on them, I always find them in a big gang playing. My beagle only escaped once, but I wasn't mad because she is an escape artist and has gotten away from even me.
My neighbors child is a big help and she gets paid. When she sees me bringing down trash (we have alot because I own an apartment building) or clipping the hedge, she comes over and lends a hand. I pay accordingly.
I recommend developing a relationship with someone close by to help out with chores such as these. A child this age can also help out by being a homework buddy for a younger kid. Checking through the back-pack for notices and helping a non-reader through directions.
