What could be a more fun way to make money? by treece http://kids-in-biz.com/kib/91/a-waterslide-what-could-be-a-more-fun-way-to-make-money/comment-page-1/#comment-367 treece Mon, 22 Jun 2009 20:30:59 +0000 http://kids-in-biz.com/kib/?p=91#comment-367 Glad you like the idea! We were impressed. On a serious note, you should look into business insurance if you are going to start renting it out. Glad you like the idea! We were impressed.

We bought it and sold tickets to the neighborhood kids to come and ride!! They love it! Renting it out is genius! I think I'll have to try that with the kids this summer!

Good idea! I already have a dog and cat of my own. Tina does make good points. But I am honestly really responsible. Babysitting is a good idea too, i already babysit my brother on a daily basis for free and I have made $65 in just 3 babysitting jobs! Thanks for good ideas, keep 'em coming! -Bethany :) I would love to take up pet sitting! Good idea! I already have a dog and cat of my own. Tina does make good points.

OR if the dog gets lost. I was just wondering if you have anything in the contract if the dog gets hurt, or hurt someone or something else. OR if the dog gets lost.

Parents should ALWAYS be involved when a child is providing a service for other adults, whether it be babysitting, pet sitting, plant watering...even selling fundraising items door to door. I always go with my daughters to their new clients and supervise until I have a high comfort level. Parents need to check out the animals, as well. A dog that is well-behaved in the owner's eyes may not behave well for someone else. Excellent suggestion.

There are lots of people out there who would use this as an opportunity to harm a child. Kids should always have parents meet the clients prior to doing business. Get the client's personal info and keep it on file, including some sort of photo id copy. Then, set up a schedule. They should check in by phone when they arrive to walk the dog, and again when they have left. Any client who does not agree to this should be avoided. Parents may even want to check out the online sex-offender websites just to be extra safe. It's unfortunate, but it is a reality. Better safe than sorry.
