5 ways to earn money with your kids this school break

Wondering how to keep your kids productive during school break? Here are a few ways to earn money and start a small business with your kids!

Are you wondering what your children can do over the school break? The good news is you don’t have to spend that much to keep your little ones busy while on vacation. In fact, this time is a good opportunity for them to earn and save money. So here are 5 ways to earn money with your kids and bond with them!

Letting your child start a small business or work is not just a great way to keep them from wasting their time. It’s also an incredible tool in teaching them basic business concepts, as well as the values of hard work and good stewardship.

Additionally, letting them involved in business and encouraging them to work will also teach them to be more responsible, allowing them to experience first-hand, the hard work that goes into earning money.

Parent-kids business ideas

Here are some business ideas for you and your kids to try this school break:

1. Sell street snacks

Take advantage of the Pinoy’s fondness for snacks by serving up some street food! If you live on a busy street with lots of passers-by, you can set up a small booth right outside your gate and sell fishball and kikiam. Or perhaps you can set up a grill and roast some isaw. Banana cue is also an all-time Filipino favorite snack that’s easy to whip up in one’s home kitchen.

2. Put up a beat-the-summer-heat pitstop

If the idea of spending time outside to sell fishball, isaw, and banana cue doesn’t appeal to you, how about selling from the comfort of your own home instead? You will need to make an eye-catching sign advertising your product. Post this sign in a conspicuous area still on your property, such as your fence or gate.

You can sell ice candy, halo-halo, popsicle, mais con yelo, and calamansi juice, to name a few.

3. Organize a bake sale

Baking with your kids gives them an opportunity to bond with you, and learn important math skills like measuring and conversion. Start with simple recipes, such as brownies and chocolate chip cookies. You can then sell your baked products to relatives or friends.

4. Have a garage sale

Sort through your things and segregate items that are of no more use to you. Set these aside and organize a garage sale. You can sell pre-loved toys, clothes, books, uniforms, shoes, and so much more.

5. Stage a show

A puppet show is a great way to get those creative juices flowing, bond as a family, and let the kids earn money too!

You can use recycled brown paper bags or old socks for your puppets, and convert an old carton box into a stage. If you don’t have a carton box, a table covered with black cloth will do just fine. Invite friends and family to watch your show and charge for tickets!

You can even sell your baked goods and iced treats to the audience after the show.

5 ways to earn money with your kids this school break

Aside from earning, it is a great opportunity for them to start learning about business, how to manage their own money, how to save and to bond even more with you, and the whole family. So, what are you waiting for? Gather everyone and start to brainstorm about your business!
