    Both my DD's 14/15 work 6 hours on a weekend at a local cafe, they earn £5.00 an hour and has been brilliant for them, both in terms of their own money but also confidence in dealing with the public and taking orders etc...

    most their friends also work but we are in a touristy area so most in cafe's, hotels and attractions and earn from around £3.80 an hour

    Yes, I think 6 or under would be the most I'd be willing to let her do.
    Good for them if they are so inclined to earn their own money and gives them a sense of pride and independence.

    Not much about though in my non touristy area! I think it's even hard for older kids to find something suitable but I expect perseverance pays off for some.

    Are there any local independant pet shops? One near me has a young girl helping to keep small animals fed, watered, and clean.
