Another great idea is for her to go around to your neighbors that have dogs, and have her hand out fliers. I did this when I was 12, and I got a couple of dogs to walk for $2 for a 20 minute walk. It's also way easier walking a dog than mowing a lawn or watching little kids! Hope I helped
xXxpinky615xXx answered Sunday February 20 2005, 12:45 pm: 11 year olds can't get jobs. You have to be at the very least 13 or 14 to babysit. Unless she's getting paid under the table (getting paid cash while working at any place ie: resturant, deli, etc. and it's illegal by the way) Then there's no way for her to get a job at all. She's gonna have to wait until she's older. [ xXxpinky615xXx's advice column | Ask xXxpinky615xXx A Question ]
Karen answered Sunday February 20 2005, 12:22 pm: Your 11 year old sister only can babysit, do extra chores, do community service such as: the paper route, shoveling people's driveways, mowing lawns, washing cars, walking dogs, etc. Hope I helped :)

CuTeBlOnDeXo answered Sunday February 20 2005, 11:39 am: Baby sitting, just make sure she can change diapers, cook simple food for the kids(like chef boyarde or other things you warm up in the micorwave cause parents usually leave stuff like that for the babysitter to cook for the kids), make sure she can stop a kid from crying, and know what to do if a kid gets sick(she should ask the parent where the medicine cabneit is and the right dosages to give to the kid) hope this helps!

Shortie8959 answered Sunday February 20 2005, 11:26 am: Well, she could try baby-sitting and pet-sitting. That's really the only kinds of jobs she can have, since she's only 11. Maybe shoveling driveways after it snows. She could do work around the house, and your parents can pay her for that.
Hope I helped!

BeautifulMadness answered Sunday February 20 2005, 11:20 am: Hiya,
There really isn;t much she could do - 11 year olds aren;t allowed any job, legally, other than the paper round. However, she could walk dogs in her street for a bit of money, or even wash cars. I'd suggest babysitting but I dunno if parents would trust an eleven year old...I guess that depends on your sister and how well they know her really. If she is good at art, she might be able to do CD covers for small-scale bands she knows - my friend does that and gets paid quite a lot. If she writes, she could send her stuff off to magazines - they often pay at least £5 per poem/short story published. She could even write off letters to (for example, TV) magazines - they usually give at least £5 per letter published, or £10 for the 'star letter'.
For a bit of extra money she could always enter loads of competitions in magazines and stuff, or sell some old stuff on eBay - you'd be suprised at what people will buy!!
Hope that helped :)
Blessed Be,
