This may be the summer your teenager leaves camp behind to venture out into the work force. The roar of success could be just a yard away. Mowing lawns could be the answer for kids who don't want to be cooped up inside. Remember, If your kids don't like a job, they probably won't stick with it. And 79 percent of teenagers say they plan to handle their own finances the way their parents do.
Word of mouth is the best way to advertise.
Your kids could throw in some artistic talent, designing hand-made fliers. Hang them up at church or your local grocery store. Your kids may rather want to hang out at the pool that get some job. Well, they can do both this summer with some training. Plenty of pools are looking for responsible teenagers certified to lifeguard and teach swimming lessons.
