Glad to welcome you!
I constantly acquaint my readers with the possibilities of remote earnings using the Internet. You can find and get a permanent job or freelance.
But how make money online for kids At what age can you start working? These and others interesting questions, which were asked by readers in personal correspondence and in comments, gave food for a new article.
But really, there are simple and easy ways to earn money that even a schoolboy can handle. Agree that they now spend more time on the Internet, playing online games, chatting with friends, walking around various thematic groups.
At what age can you start earning
Before allowing their child to earn money, parents must understand and accept all the risks. Your child may not understand the complexity of the work, the laboriousness and the reality of the reward. The first completed work will help the child understand how money is earned and how much work needs to be done.
If official employment is possible only upon reaching the age of 14, then a child can work on the Internet much earlier. From the age of ten, he has access to some ways of earning his pocket money.
Parents need to know all these ways to make money on the Internet in order to be able to help their child start doing necessary actions and solve technical difficulties.
An important plus is that a child can start working without any financial investment. Here the main criterion for selecting a job is his level of training and some skills.
Naturally, working on the Internet should not be a priority for a child. This is a part-time job, it does not replace school.
This is the first pitfall. As soon as the child receives his first money earned on the Internet, he will have interest and desire.
Ways to make money on the Internet
Depending on the age of the child and his abilities, there are several methods of working on the Internet. You can start with the simplest, gradually mastering more complex methods that require special knowledge.
REGISTRATION
REGISTRATION
This method is not at all difficult, it requires attention and perseverance. The advantage is that the child will learn to fulfill the requirements that are indicated in the task.
Reading emails
REGISTRATION
The method is a little more complicated than the first one, since here you need not only to read the letters insanely, but also to take certain actions in response. A huge plus for the child will be the fact that there will be practice in the Russian language.
Testing various services and games
- Available from 10 years old.
- You need the skill to install applications on your phone or computer.
- Knowledge of grammar and spelling is required to write simple reports on a test, game or application.
- Help your child get used to the chosen service and take the first steps. It is quite possible that you will pass the first task or test together with him, write the first report and together rejoice at the first money earned.
This method is not so much difficult as interesting for children - you need to do something, look for various glitches in programs, write letters and receive further instructions.
Processing photos with special photo editors
- Available from 12 years old.
- Experience with image processing software required.
- Skills of correspondence and search for orders on various services are required. It is quite possible that the first orders will come from acquaintances, friends and relatives.
- Help your child take the first steps in this direction. Maybe you need your help or advice on some technical issue.
The method is more suitable for boys, but girls can easily master photo processing.
Creation of logos, icons, pictures
A good way to make money on the Internet for a child, because here, in addition to technical knowledge, creativity is included.
Writing small texts for social networks, blogs
- Available from 12 years old.
- Literacy and knowledge of all the rules of the Russian language are required.
- Basic knowledge of working with texts is required - design, formatting.
- The hardest post is the first one. Therefore, help your child choose a thematic community for further posting, write a letter to the administrator together and write the first post.
Your child will enjoy spending time on social networks, earning a little pocket money.
Training via the Internet (tutoring, the basics of working with programs)
This method is suitable only for those who are ready to teach. After all, not all children and adults from the first words will capture the essence of the topic, assimilate the material.
Therefore, a plus for a child who chooses this method will be that he will learn to patiently teach others, to explain clearly and to be patient with others.
Blogging
Here, your technical assistance is practically not required. Perhaps the child will ask you to look at this or that material prepared for publication.
Ways for teenagers to use the Internet
- as an administrative assistant. The main activity is to keep the group active, offer interesting news and information.
- Maintaining news headings on websites and blogs. It is especially valuable if there is a school site where you can try yourself as a journalist, editor, and so on.
- Writing term papers, control, independent works.
If a child begins to master all the possibilities of the Internet from the age of 10, then by the age of 15 he will have a huge experience.
Therefore, help him choose a direction suitable for his age and start doing certain actions in order to get his first pocket money.
I hope this article will be useful and interesting to all my readers.
Sincerely, Alexander Gavrin.
Probably every child wants to have pocket money and not ask their parents for it, which is why many teenagers start working in the summer to earn money and spend it how they want. Despite the fact that children can only officially work from the age of 14, even if you are 12, you can find a simple part-time job for yourself. Most often, children work in groups of several people, since not every person can perform complex tasks alone.
If you want to earn money but can't find a job because of your young age, you should talk to your parents, maybe they can find you a part-time job at their job. For example, sorting through documents, stamping, placing them in folders and files. Of course, your parents will pay you from their own pocket, but this way they will be sure that in the summer you are not just killing your time.
Common Jobs
Work at the age of 12 for the summer can be represented by different vacancies. The most popular are the following:
In order not to be deceived, you need to carefully look at the employer and it is best for parents to do this.
It is worth noting that promoters, posters and people who hand out flyers are paid for the hours actually worked on the day the job is done. If the employer starts promising you money at the end of the month or week, then you need to run away from him.
Earnings on the Internet
Since you can officially earn money only from the age of 14, one of the most relevant options for a part-time job for a child can be called the Internet. In social networks, you can find many ways to earn money, but you should not go for those where you need to invest your money. And it is unlikely that this will interest a child of 12 years old, because he does not have his own funds.
Earnings on the Internet is simple, and even interesting. In addition, this way of earning is relevant not only in summer, but also all year round. But it is worth noting that you should not expect big money from such work, but a 12-year-old teenager does not have high demands, and therefore such a part-time job can suit them. On the day, as a rule, it will be possible to earn no more than 100 rubles. The most common ways to make money are:
- Clicks on ads. You should not worry about the fact that you will infect your computer with viruses, since the sites to which you need to make transitions are pre-checked. Parents don't have to worry, as the child won't be able to come across "forbidden" resources.
- Reading emails and taking tests. It is necessary to read short letters and answer questions.
- Simple tasks. To earn money, you need to register on sites, write reviews, put likes.
You can also earn money on social networks, for example, repost posts or go through a simple registration. There are many options for earning. Of course, there is a lot of work on the Internet, but not all of it is suitable for teenagers of 12 years old. For example, most of all you can earn by writing articles.
In addition, you can blog on Youtube and earn money by viewing ads. In order to become recognizable, you need to shoot something interesting and unique, then your channel on the platform will develop rapidly, and you will be able to earn good money. You can advertise organizations or other Youtube channels on your videos. The most important thing in this topic is the regular filling of content. You can also play games online, and players will pay you money so that you continue to pass level after level.
If the idea with the channel is not close to you, then you can, for example, create your own personal website where you will post useful information for users. Today you can create simple sites for free, for example, on the Wix platform, which anyone and even a schoolchild can learn. Is it true with filling content and its optimization, it is better to turn to adults.
There are a lot of scams and scams on the internet. Probably, people who at least once looked for a job on the network came across such vacancies: an employee in the collection of ball rivers or other office. It is worth knowing that such vacancies can be fraudulent, which offer to make an advance payment for working material, and only then they will send you pens by mail that you need to collect. And most interestingly, what kind of simple job“Paying” is not a small amount of money, and therefore there are many who want to try it.

Work for boys
One of the common vacancies for a teenage boy can be called a gardener. Very often, older people look after their garden, garden or cottage. But not every person allows health to swarm in the ground. Therefore, older people are looking for help for themselves, and most often these are children.

Jobs for 12-year-old boys can be different: a teenager can be a car wash assistant, a courier, or just help dad.

If a child found a job at the age of 12, then first of all he should consult with his parents whether he can earn money this way, even if he earns money on the Internet. Since in our country you can only work from the age of 14, you do not conclude any contract with the employer, and therefore you should not exclude the fact that you will be deceived and will not be paid anything for the work performed. And if you go to the police, then your parents can be punished for not watching their child.
Few employers are happy to hire teenagers, as children are a lot of trouble. Very often, children are not officially employed, the following should alert a teenager:

How to make money for a student - 10 ways to get a good income without investing in real life
Classic ways will help you at all times. Suitable for most students.
Method 1. Find a part-time job with friends
I am sure that your parents have many acquaintances who can be helped in some way: walk the dog, tidy up the house, or take home a simple technical work. Adults do not want to bother and do routine work. If you take it upon yourself, they will pay you for such help.
I have a friend, when she was 16 years old, she worked part-time, cleaning the entrances in her and a neighboring high-rise building. Yes, the work is not very easy and pleasant, but the girl always had money earned by honest work.
At the same time, she studied excellently and managed to participate in the social life of the school.
Do not be afraid of work, being independent is now fashionable! So, as a one-time job, adults may ask you to:
- free a balcony or garage from old things;
- buy products on the list;
- take a walk with your pet;
- to do cleaning in apartments or in the country;
- move heavy things from one place to another;
- take out household or construction debris.
At the age of 15-17, I myself worked part-time on such "covens", I found them through friends and acquaintances:
- washed windows in car dealerships;
- unloaded building materials;
- assembled furniture (wardrobes and kitchens);
- washed the entrances in his house;
- provided computer assistance to the elderly and taught them how to work with the Adobe Photoshop graphics program (I have been working in it since I was 13).
Basically, these were summer part-time jobs, but even during the school year it was possible to get pocket money.
Method 2. Make and sell hand-made (crafts)
I already wrote above about the schoolgirl Nastya, who creates soap masterpieces with her own hands. Whether you're a boy or a girl, there are DIY ideas for everyone.
If you are a guy, you can create:
- wooden and leather products: butterflies, wallets, watches;
- accessories for interiors in the style of "Loft" and "Hi-tech";
- three-dimensional paintings from different materials.
An example of a wooden butterfly and a handmade leather wallet If you are a girl, here are some cool hand-made ideas for you:
- bouquets of sweets and toys;
- original handmade dolls;
- figures and crafts made of polymer clay;
- trees made of beads, coffee beans and other materials (topiary).
Bouquets of sweets, toys and other items are in fashion now, only a flight of fancy can limit you ... Method 3. Put up ads
In the age of the Internet, there are fewer companies and entrepreneurs who advertise their services through announcements on porches, poles and special boards.
But until now, in large and small cities, paper ads remain an integral part of the advertising campaign.
By posting ads you can earn from 100 before 500 rubles a day, devoting 1-2 hours to this. This is not much, but if you stick up several days a week, you get from 2 000 before 10 000 rubles per month .
For one pasted ad you will be paid from 2 before 5 rubles. It turns out if you stick 100 ads, for example, by 4 rubles a piece, you earn 400 rubles .
The faster you move from house to house, from stop to stop, or from board to board, the more you earn.
The Internet will help you find a job on sticking up. Type in Yandex the phrase "work on posting ads" + YOUR city. You will immediately see many offers from employers.
In the same way, you can find any job. Internet to help you Method 4. Earn money as a promoter
Handing out leaflets is another way for a student to earn money. Each company or store periodically holds promotions, where they involve young guys and girls as promoters. You have probably seen them near large stores, the subway, in crowded places.
This way you can earn from 100 rubles at one o'clock . You can get a job as a promoter if you have a pleasant appearance, are not afraid to communicate with people, are active and positive in life.
Promoters are often involved not only in the distribution of leaflets, but also in other activities that stimulate sales of the company's goods and services.
You can work as promoters already in high school It can be:
- Product tastings. You have probably seen how in large stores friendly young people in the form of a certain company offer you to try such and such sweets, drink juice or eat a piece of sausage. This is called product tasting.
- Test drives. Now we're not talking about cars. Bicycles and hoverboards are taken for test drives. Even irons and vacuum cleaners can be taken for a test drive at some companies.
- days open doors. Another type of promotion. Open days are periodically held by all large companies: educational institutions, factories, creative studios. Your role is to distribute leaflets, booklets, meet and register guests, escort them to the right place (hall, office).
- Exhibitions and presentations. Usually the exhibition is an indoor pavilion (business center) or an open space (if the weather is good). Here, representatives of various companies "get up" with their stall or promotional stand. The exhibition is actively advertised in advance, attracting a large number of potential customers and partners who come to the venue of the event. Your task is to attract as many people as possible to the “stall” (promotional stand) of a certain company that hires you: distribute the same leaflets, business cards and take contacts of potential customers.
Method 5. Earn money as a courier
Delivery of parcels or mail, documents or goods - a good option for a part-time job if you are a high school student.
Of course, students are more preferred in such work, but if you show yourself with a potential employer in a conversation with a potential employer better side, then be sure to get a courier. Jobs can also be found online.
Method 6. Work as a counselor or animator
Summer camps, playgrounds, shopping centers animators and counselors are required all year round.
As a rule, in such work it is necessary to organize the leisure of children, help adult counselors and educators, fulfilling their one-time assignments.
Love children and fun, contests and loud fur? You have a direct road to animators! Example from my life
My family and I periodically go on vacation to various hotels by the sea, and there are necessarily animators there - young boys and girls who dress up in funny outfits and entertain children: they hold contests with them, show theatrical shows, play, dance.
Older animators (students) organize leisure activities for adults: they hold discos and competitions, play sports games with vacationers.
Ask your parents and they will help you find a job as an animator.
Method 7. Work at a car wash
You can work part-time at a car wash on the weekends or provide car washing services to neighbors and acquaintances. If you are not afraid of such a “dirty and wet” work, then you are a great fellow. You need to start small to understand the value of money, and then learn to earn more.
Most jobs require people over the age of 18, and car washers are no exception. But you can work officially and from the age of 16. Sometimes this requires the written consent of the parents, and most importantly, the desire of the employer to hire a minor.
Method 8. Work as a waiter
To work as a waiter, you must be friendly and helpful person, look good. The job is suitable for both boys and girls. Students can earn up to 2,000 rubles a day on tips if it is a popular cafe (restaurant) with wealthy clients.
This is one of the most profitable jobs available to students and youth.
But it's not just about making money. If you are good at it, then cheap McDonald's will not be your destiny.
Over time, as you become an adult, you will be able to make a career in this area, becoming an administrator, then a restaurant manager. Later, if you want, you can open your own business - the same restaurant or cafe.
Method 9. Teach adults (pensioners) how to work on a computer
Teaching others is an interesting and rewarding activity. Some adults are still not friends with modern devices. Computers and smartphones are a dark forest for them, I know this from my mother, who is 63 years old.
Now there are a lot of courses for adults, they are especially popular for pensioners. You can teach them how to work on a computer, in office programs and on the Internet. Learning to create websites, layout, programming, work with audio-video and graphic editors is a great opportunity for high school students to earn money.
Granddaughter, how can I create a folder here? You can first work as a teacher with pay by the hour at an educational institution, and then, after gaining experience, open private courses.
Method 10. Provide computer assistance
Now everyone has a computer, some families have several, including laptops, tablets and other gadgets.
Periodically, they break or programs stop working. However, not many people have knowledge at the level of system administrators or programmers. This is where you come to the rescue.
You can start with a regular ad on Avito and other electronic bulletin boards that are popular in your city.
Set your own prices.
Do not neglect paper ads, they are read by those who are not friends with the Internet.
For example, grandmothers and elderly people who have children far away, but have a computer. These are your potential customers.
Having sold computer assistance services, you can offer others - computer training (idea of the previous paragraph).

Popular YouTube bloggers like IVANGAY make money from their videos tens and hundreds of thousands of rubles per month . Particularly advanced guys "cut" several million.

Streams and replays of computer games are one of the most popular topics among teenagers aged 12-17.
The popular video blogger IVANGAY will make his viewers laugh again... You can start capturing video directly from your computer screen or on your phone.
After training for a month or two, you will get better and better. Finished videos need to be placed on your YouTube channel.

In Russia, specialists in the field of eSports are officially trained. Russian state university physical education, sports, youth and tourism prepares such specialists.
Esports is especially popular in Korea and China. There are hundreds of millions of young people playing computer games and "get sick" at the virtual "hands-on" championships with entire stadiums.
Some schoolchildren make money by playing for money with other participants or by selling virtual game artifacts for real rubles or dollars.
Method 3. Create websites to order
All companies (businesses) need websites. Also, many people work for themselves: apartment decorators, furniture makers, taxi drivers, lawyers and advocates, accountants, designers, hairdressers. The list goes on.
It doesn't matter that you're young and in school, what matters is what you can do and how well you do. Now, in just a couple of weeks, thanks to YouTube videos, FREE courses and articles, you can learn how to make websites. This activity allows you to earn from 5 000 rubles per month to infinity.
You can start working alone, and then create a creative team of a designer, photographer, videographer and programmer. So in the future, you can open a whole digital agency (digital agency) or a center for marketing services that can be provided remotely.
That is, you work in Izhevsk, and your customer may be from Moscow or another country.

Method 4. Edit videos
Video editing is a great opportunity for a part-time job on the Internet. Customers will send you "raw" material and their wishes for the design of the future video, and you will bring their ideas to life, of course, supplementing them with your creative vision.
The cost of his work 1000 rubles 1 second video. That is, a 30-second video for a client costs 30 000 rubles, and there is no release from customers. Because he makes a very high quality video product.
You can start by learning the computer programs Adobe After Effects or Adobe Premiere Pro.
By the way, now the modern direction "Motion design" is gaining popularity in video animation.
You will also be taught to learn this art and find dear clients in the online university "Netology" on the course " Motion Design for Beginners».
Method 5. Make advertising layouts
This way of earning for schoolchildren belongs to the "designer". If you own such graphic programs as Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Corel Draw, then you can earn good money.
These business cards are created by schoolchildren in computer programs and earn on it from 300 rubles a day! What are you worse? Every company public organization, even the school you attend needs to design promotional and presentation materials.
You can design layouts for business cards, booklets, banners, and all this without leaving your home at the computer. Customers can be found among familiar adults, as well as by creating your own group in popular social networks.
All layouts are conveniently done in design programs, the most popular of which is Photoshop.
To learn how to work in it from scratch and create excellent layouts and graphics, I recommend that you take Zinaida Lukyanova's Adobe Photoshop training. She is a master in this direction and has been teaching the art of creating graphics for children and adults for several years.
Method 6. Complete tasks on sites for money
There are a number of sites and job exchanges on the Internet where you can “like” for money, write comments, and be added to certain groups.
For example, on the Otzovik website, you can register and earn several rubles per comment. Reviews will have to write about household appliances, banking services, mobile operators.
I must say right away that this is not a very profitable way, but the first 100-200 rubles you can get without problems and believe in online earnings for schoolchildren, "feeling" the first online profit.
First profit you can earn WITHOUT investments on the VKTarget website. There you need to carry out simple buildings to promote VKontakte pages (put likes, join groups) and get money for this.
Method 7. Write texts on copywriting exchanges
I already wrote above about the girl Victoria, who started earning in the 9th grade before 12 000 rubles per month on writing texts via the Internet for various sites. The activity of writing texts is called copywriting.
Learn to type quickly on the keyboard and express your thoughts beautifully through text, then you will become an excellent and rich copywriter The course " Copywriting Basics» Online University «Netology».
You can find clients on copywriting exchanges. The exchange is a site where customers meet - those who need texts and authors - those who write them.
By the way, it is not necessary to write to order on the instructions of the employer. First you can write text on any topic, and then just put up for sale. It will be bought by an interested site owner.
- Contentmonster is one of the most famous copywriting exchanges. Here you will find thousands of customers for your texts. Excellent conditions for authors, high prices for texts and the reliability of this site have been tested for years.
- Text.ru is the largest copywriting exchange. Here it is also convenient to check the text for uniqueness. This function is required mainly by the customers of articles, so that an unscrupulous author does not sell him stolen text from another site.
- Etxt.ru - this year the exchange celebrated its 10th anniversary. Not only authors of articles will find orders here. Translators and photographers also find clients on Etxt.ru. For them, the site has its own sections. A lot of schoolchildren and young people earn good money here. For example, authors with experience receive more than 100 rubles for 1000 characters of written text.
The main skills in this type of earnings are the ability to beautifully express thoughts in writing and quickly type on the keyboard.
Good copywriters earn up to 5 000 rubles in a day.
Method 8. Perform one-time tasks on the Workzilla website
Workzilla is a popular site where employers post small jobs:
- type text;
- edit photo;
- make a simple website and so on.
I have several schoolchildren I know who work on this freelance exchange, earn from 2,000 to 13,000 rubles a month! Even without having much experience in any computer field, schoolchildren here earn money.
For example, there are tasks like " transcription" audio file.
The better your keyboard skills, the more you will earn from transcription.

Method 10. Create a public and make money on advertising
It used to be quite easy to make money on public pages, it was done by schoolchildren, students and adults. Now, with increased competition, this is more difficult to do, but still possible.
Public (public page) - type of page with public materials in social network with an author or a group of authors, which is available to a wide range of readers (users).
Anyone can make money in public, although this takes time, because it must first be created and then filled interesting materials. And only after a few months you will receive the first money.

Nikolai, the topic of cryptocurrencies and trading is really popular on the Internet now, but I will immediately warn you that you should not take this matter seriously at such a young age.

In the professional development plan of your son, I recommend that you study the work of freelance exchanges, for example, the site fl.ru, in order to further help your child put his design portfolio on the Internet and find the first customers.
It's great if he is interested in web design, this is a well-paid profession, I know from my own experience, since I have been studying design since I was 13 years old. I myself was a schoolboy in grades 7-8 when I started to get involved in this.
In terms of financial literacy, I recommend reading books Robert Kiyosaki's Rich Dad Series and then subtly plant the sound ideas from those books into your son's head. Robert Kiyosaki also has cash flow game for children school age, specially designed for children (desktop version). If possible, get it and play regularly with your son.

Guys, the world has changed, and often we see how C students and even D students are more successful than A students.
Watch the video below about it:
