By far the most popular way for a teenage girl to make money is by babysitting. Years ago it was more than acceptable for a family with two or more children to give a young lady two or three dollars an hour, use of the telephone and a kitchen full of food in exchange for high quality child care. Now young ladies who take on this demanding task are treating it as a small business venture and are asking for their pay in advance and are even demanding overtime. With some first aid training, a sunny disposition and a great deal of patience, this is still one of the very best summer jobs for teens.

Gardening and outdoor work is another way for young people to earn some extra cash when they have a break from school. Almost everyone takes a trip away from home during the summer and while they are gone, they need someone to come by to water the garden, pick weeds and mow the lawn. A teen with an entrepreneurial spirit can print up some flyers early in the season, drop them in the neighborhood mail boxes and then wait for the calls to come in. If they provide quality work at an affordable price, both young men and women can expect this to be a lucrative job year after year.
