how can i make money as a kid

i'm 8 years old, how can i make money online
There are fun and safe ways to start, like selling crafts or art, offering to do chores for family and friends, or starting a YouTube channel about something you love.

But would it be more fun to focus on learning and enjoying new hobbies that could help you later on?
There’s plenty of time to explore earning as you grow!
 
Eight years old? It's too early. I think this is not something you should worry about. You should have a happy childhood.
I disagree because in my opinion you should learn about finance and making money and get on your feets as fas as you can
 
You're a bit young to be on this forum tbh. If anyone tries to send you private messages for no reason just to talk or offer any work, share the message with your parents and/or moderators of the this forum. They might be trying to scam you or possibly even something worse. No matter what people say, do not share any personal information. In general, it's best to keep your parents or a trusted adult involved in this. I think your parents would be very impressed to hear that you are already interested in making money. Additionally, if you are under 18, you will have problems in getting the money from online to real life - basically all platforms need you to be an adult so you can open an account to receive any payments.

Unfortunately, there isn't many ways for someone your age to make money online right now.

For someone your age, it's best to rather focus on building skills that will help you in the future. First and foremost, focus on your school - it will teach you many things that are useful, even if doesn't seem so right now.

It's possible that many internet and technology related jobs will also be changing a lot in the next 10 years or so because of artificial intelligence. I still think though that having good programmatic and technology knowledge is essential for you, because in the future almost any work will require strong technological knowledge.

Check out Scratch to start understanding how programming works. It's an educational game of sorts.

Then, you can look at this:

It will teach you how websites work and how to create your own

Once done, create your own website! You can make it to be anything you want. It's just for practice. Running your own website is a great way to learn on how everything works.

This will definitely keep you busy for a year or two. Just remember, stay in school, study hard and people who call you a nerd will one day be serving you coffee and washing your car.

Also, there is free cheese only in a mousetrap. If someone promises you easy money that you can make, they are likely out looking to scam or abuse you.
First money I earned - I made a website for my private english teacher. Very crappy, html/css only, cheap af. He was happy, I was happy with these pennies too and spent everything on book about learning Flash xD. I was 12 though, 8 is kinda hardcore, but if 12 years old can earn, why not 8 years old? Technically it was offline though and he paid me in cash.
 
Oh wow you are as old as my daughter... if you want to make money at a so young age I will suggest getting monetized on youtube and show off your gaming skills, post videos of you playing roblox or any other game you like to play and get paid whenever an ad appears on your videos. Search online how to get monetized on Youtube.
 
Eight years old? It's too early. I think this is not something you should worry about. You should have a happy childhood.
This is the same thing i would suggest.

But who knows what the situation is with your family's financials? If your family doesn't have a financial crisis, enjoy your days while you can.

But if you want to help your family with money then still have to learn.

Learn skills, Learn those skills in which you have interests or can develop interest.
 
Love your interest at this early age.. You have a lot of time to experience, with this same interest level, you will be a millionaire at your teenage itself. My best wishes kiddo.
 
Learning new languages is a good and excellent way to start
 
Wow... when i was 8, i think my mind isn't even clear yet. Kids are really bright these days!
 
Study hard. It is not the right time to start working at this age. You will have a long working time in the future. Enjoy your childhood.
 
you can do everything with your parents help, just dont forget to invest with knowledge while still young, the best to learn in this era and for future would be developing codes for web, some PHP, or maybe your own game. Still young to think what you can do and learn. Best of luck buddy
 
don't worry about money yet lil bro! teach yourself to program. make some stuff in Roblox.


after that start learning Python. if you're able to teach yourself to program you can then use that skill to make money on the internet. you will have a leg up on a lot of people who don't have that skill, and the mindset you'll develop by learning to program will be useful to figure out ways to make money.

for everyone saying enjoy your childhood etc you can still do that while focusing on this too lol. that's what i did.. started teaching myself to program around age 9 and by age 13 i was making money on the internet.. money i used to have a lot of fun with friends :)

best of luck to you!
