In the United States,kids who are between the ages of 10 and 13 can make money by doing lots of things.
Valerie,11,tells us that she makes money by cleaning up other people's yards(院子). Lena,13,makes money by making dog sweaters and selling(卖)them. And Reisa says she starts taking art classes and showing her works to people. People ask her to draw pictures and pay her. Jasmine,13,writes articles(文章)for different magazines!
Making money is also a kind of learning. By working on your own to make money,you are learning the skills you will need to succeed(成功)in life. These skills can include(包含)things like getting along with(相处)others and spending time well. Some people think that asking for money is a lot easier than making it. But when you make money by yourself,you don't have to depend on someone else. The five dollars that you make can make you feel a lot better than the twenty dollars you ask for.
