Money Making Ideas for Kids and Teens: Starting Your Own Business-A Guide for Teen Entrepreneurs (Kids and Money) Paperback – March 4, 2014

Give this book to your teen or pre-teen to get their mind working on ways they make some extra cash while building their business experience, confidence and communications skills. Along with 18 job ideas (from babysitting to tutoring to fundraising to party planning), there is also information on starting a business (from writing a business plan to how to ask for money). As you encourage your child to be innovative and self-sufficient this book will help them enter the business world in a way that is rewarding and enjoyable.

This book is wonderful, if your child wants to make money by going into business for themselves! It takes you through the whole process. From legal aspects, to writing business plans, and action plans. This book is well written to help self starters get a real grasp on what it takes to start a business. I highly recommend this book.

This book provides a blueprint for youth to create a money-making venture based on their talents and preferences. This book is a good resource for anyone working with youth and trying to foster creativity and independence. Mentoring programs, youth groups, teachers and parents will find a step-by-step guide to implementing a course of action for young people.

Whoever came up with just the idea of this book is genius!

This a well written and easy to read book for any teenager. The book covers guidelines that one needs to be aware of such as age restrictions, taxation, creating a business plan, having a budget etc.The book then coversa) Possible jobs that a teenager can do. There are the more well know jobs such as newspaper delivery to the more artistic type jobs such as a performer, or party planner.b) For each job type it covers the personality type which is best suited for the job role, benefits, tools required etc.There are definitely plenty of ideas to get any teenager interested in finding ways to make money.

This book does contain quite a few good ideas for teens who want to start earning some cash / start their own business. And just in time for the kids to start planning for summer vacation too! I like the way it describes the type of teen suited to each type of work, very realistic evaluation. It is however very US-centric and while the general ideas hold true in the UK, the details can be very different (maybe you need to publish a UK version?) I did appreciate the safety tips, anything that brings this to the forefront of a teen mind is A Good Thing! but again the level and type of safety consideration varies from location to location.

I thought this book was excellent, not just for teenagers but adults as an introduction to areas of self employment. It is very practical, realistic and sensible. It advises to consider legal requirements which is necessary, and also gives practical instruction on how to work in a number of start up ventures, creative and practical. Adults wanting a practical introduction to starting as self employed would find this book helpful too. It is a great starter book for self employment.
