Easy Jobs for Kids

I have some easy jobs for kids to do. You can find this type of work right at your local supermarket. You could pack the bags with groceries at checkout. Whether they use paper, plastic, or those reusable bags, many grocery stores will allow you to pack the bags for their customers.

You won't be on salary or get a paycheck from the manager, but you will get tips. Plus, to do this type of work you don't have to be 14. I do it and I'm only 12 years old. On a Saturday I take home about $50-$75. Sundays you cold do well too, but I go to church. During the week I don't make as much, but if you work in the right store and neighborhood you could really make some money.

I tried helping women to their cars with the packages and putting them in the trunk, but I couldn't do both. And the women seemed a little scared since I was just hanging around outside. But you may have a different experience. But packing and carrying bags are some easy jobs for kids of all ages.
