Ways for 13 year old's to make some money?

You could organize a garage sale for your family. If you're willing to do all the work (finding items around the house, pricing them, polishing them so they look better, writing the ad for the paper, collecting money the day of the sale, etc.), your parents may be willing to give you a % of what you take in. At the very least, you may get all the money from your stuff.

I used to wash cars for money.

You could teach a skill or tutor people if you're really good in a particular subject. Maybe you could teach some of your older neighbors how to get started on social networking sites like facebook, how to take and store (and edit) digital photos, how to use a smartphone, or even how to use a laptop or email. Technology has changed so much just in the past five years and so many people feel left behind.

You can teach people to cook in a certain style (e.g. if you're Korean and know how to make Korean food), or any skill that you may have.

Put up some fliers in your neighborhood (only go to homes you know, though, for safety reasons), and ask your parents and friends to spread the word.

No one *likes* to babysit, but if it comes down to it, try to find a family w/ preschool kids. They're past the diaper stage, but not yet into the back-talking stage.

Chores are also great. Offer to do outdoor chores (weeding, planting flowers, etc), when Spring starts.
