Babysitting!!! I think that is the fastest way!!!

Nagesh answers:

Im 13 and i babysit for my neighbor at first i think they were hesitant about it but i gave them a “one free babysitting session” coupon and they used it, now i babysit regularly for them, you can also put up flyers in public places, community centers, school, church, ect. Other ways to make money…. Last summer i walked our neighbors dogs and got a lotta money. Not lemonade stand why not hot chocolate? You can buy powder mixes at costco or probably grocery stores, just add hot water!
If you said its to raise money for a good cause, you could have a bake sale or make crafts and tell people its for a fundraiser. I hope this was helpful to you and i hope you and your sister can make enough money for the competition!

Help around the house and your parents might pay you or you can help some neighbors and maybe they’ll pay you

… If there’s something that’s easy and fast, I don’t think I would want to tell you. I would be doing it myself. 😛

Seriously though, I’ve heard of people who rented out their belongings to friends at school such as CDs or comic books. You can collect bottles and cans and recycle them at the machines. If you are great at playing video games, you may be able to win some money if you win a video game tournament. You can also search for scholarships that you may qualify for… They do exist for Jr. High students.

Real jobs will require your parents’ consent and support. You can try out for TV commercials, kid’s shows (like Power Rangers), or movies as an extra. Other things you might do include participating in focus groups or marketing surveys.

Anyway… Why do you need some extra money? The easiest way is still to beg.

If you don’t mind hard work, you could advertise in your neighborhood to pull weeds, wash cars, was windows, etc.
