How To Make Money As A Kid – 101 Fabulous Kid and Teen Business Ideas

how to make money as a kid

Is your child keen to start a business?

Do they want to know how to make money as a kid?

Is your teen also dying to earn more money than they can score at their local fast-food joint or with their pocket money?

Are they expressing the desire to start up their own business?

If that’s the case congratulations are definitely in order!

Kids and teens with a burning wish to create their own income stream should definitely be encouraged and admired.

Some of us may feel intimidated or overwhelmed by their big dreams (ah is this actually a trap? Am I somehow going to get stuck running the business for them?)

But…before you squash this exciting yet maybe scary notion please know that this entrepreneurial spirit is something to be treasured.

Trust me, kids and teens can run businesses successfully and there are MANY teens already running their own super profitable business – just Google teen entrepreneurs!

If your child or teen happens to show even the tiniest spark of entrepreneurial spirit, DO NOT discourage them by belittling or laughing at their ideas.

Instead nurture this curiosity, get them to do some research.

Even if it isn’t a multi-million success, get them to at least give it a go if the idea is viable.

What’s the worst thing that they happen?

They either learn that their ideas need some adjusting or they are rewarded for their time and effort.

To me, that is a win-win scenario.

There are no mistakes, just lessons learned.

Here are 101 ideas that any teen or kid could potentially pursue if they show a skill, desire or passion for that particular area.
